Fedrigoni acquires certain assets of Mohawk

Paper Solutions

The Fedrigoni Group has announced the acquisition of certain assets of Mohawk Fine Papers, Inc, the company it entered into an industrial partnership with last September 2022 to strengthen the distribution of specialty fine papers in the North American market.

Founded in 1931, Mohawk is a family owned company that produces some of the best known specialty papers for designers, brands, and printers and that – like Fedrigoni – has strongly innovated in the field of digital printing and sustainability. The sharing of core values such as solid know how and a focus on innovation and environmental impact reduction led to the acquisition of this firm, which became part of the Fedrigoni Special Papers division and represents an important piece in the group's overseas growth strategy. 

‘This is our third merger and acquisition this year (after SharpEnd in UK and Arjowiggins China), a relevant step forward to enhance our premium product offerings to customers in the US in specialty papers for luxury packaging and fine digital printing,’ commented Marco Nespolo, CEO at Fedrigoni Group.

 ‘Thanks to Mohawk's entry into our group we will now be able to produce and distribute to customers a wide range of Fedrigoni high value added papers directly in North America, and conversely expand access to Mohawk specialty papers internationally. We will thus increasingly support the strategies of our customers who favour nearshoring models in place of the traditional global purchasing oriented approach, to reduce their environmental impact and minimise the risks of supply chain disruption.’
