Company Description

Trouble containing yourself? BWAY Holding may be of some help. The company manufactures and distributes metal containers, from aerosol cans to paint cans, steel pails, and specialty boxes. It also makes rigid plastic pails, bottles, drums, and other blow-molded containers. BWAY products are used to pack industrial and consumer goods, including ammunition, deck sealants, personal care items, and food. Core subsidiaries are BWAY Packaging (metal containers), ICL Industrial Containers (pails), and NAMPAC Packaging (plastic containers). In mid-2010 the company was acquired by Madison Dearborn Partners for approximately $915 million (with the assumption of debt), shifting it to a privately held corporation.
