  • Amcor/Bemis: Flexible Medical Packaging Overlaps Draw DOJ Scrutiny
    Vol. 6 No. 400 November 9, 2018 Amcor/Bemis: Flexible Medical Packaging Overlaps Draw DOJ Scrutiny Deal Update DOJ staff attorneys investigating Amcor’s proposed $5.2 billion purchase of packaging rival Bemis (BMS) have keyed in on two healthcare product lines in which the merging parties overlap, sources familiar with the matter said. The deal would combine two of the three dominant producers of coated TyVek, a breathable medical packaging film that can be sterilized. The tie-up would also join two significant U.S. converters of vented medical bags. DOJ staff has interviewed industry participants about these overlaps as recently as two weeks ago, the sources said. Given market shares and competitive dynamics, the merging firms’ overlap in coated TyVek raises a more significant antitrust issue than the vented medical bag overlap, industry sources said. Reflecting this dynamic, sources said that over time, DOJ interviews have become more focused on coated TyVek, to the exclusion of vented medical bags. The merging parties also overlap in food packaging, but these markets are generally fragmented and characterized by a more robust competitive environment than their medical counterparts. Amcor and Bemis, who announced their deal on August 6, have not disclosed the receipt of a DOJ second request. Spokespeople for Amcor and the DOJ declined to comment. Bemis did not respond to requests for comment. Coated flexible medical packaging. Amcor and Bemis both produce various types of sterile flexible medical packaging, which is sold to medical device manufacturers to protect medical equipment and devices ultimately sold to hospital groups and doctors.

  • Guide to Security Labels Security Labels Deter Tampering, Defeat Counterfeiting and Protect Consumers
    Performance Adhesives Group Guide to Security Labels Security labels deter tampering, defeat counterfeiting and protect consumers. Mactac’s tamper-evident security labels improve product authenticity while reducing theft and fraud. CHALLENGE: Counterfeiting and product tampering deprive corporations and governments of revenue while threatening brand integrity. And, they pose risks, some life-threatening, to public health and safety. These violations are widespread and growing. Trade in counterfeit and pirated goods has risen steadily in the last few years and now stands at 3.3 percent of global trade, according to a new report by the OECD and the European Union’s Intellectual Property Office. In fact, the report estimates that the value of imported fake goods worldwide -- based on 2016 customs seizure data – is as much as USD 509 billion. That’s up from USD 461 billion or 2.5 percent in 2013. Worse yet, these numbers don’t include domestically produced-and-consumed fake goods, or pirated products distributed via the Internet. That means counterfeiting numbers are even higher. And, technology is helping that illicit market to grow. Fortunately, Mactac’s technology is helping combat the problem.
