Michael Franklin, CEO, ACG International, said, "This is a very exciting partnership that will benefit our common customers in the pharmaceutical industry by aligning two world leaders and their product portfolios. For our pharmaceutical customers in the US specifically, this will result in easier access to printed and unprinted films and foils for blister packaging using ACG's products with the great customer service they have come to expect from CCL Label."

Rob Ryckman, Vice President Sales & Marketing for CCL's Healthcare Solutions business, commented, "We are very pleased to add this capability to our product solutions portfolio for our Healthcare customers in North America. They will be able to rely on the same high GMP quality standards and rapid service response times for films and foils that they have become accustomed to with our label products."
