Cologne, April 21, 2026 – EKO-PUNKT GmbH & Co. KG is consistently continuing its growth trajectory: the company intends to acquire Recycling Dual GmbH from Smurfit Westrock. The transaction is subject to approval by the relevant antitrust authority.

With the planned acquisition, EKO-PUNKT is strengthening its market position in the field of dual systems and underlining its ambition to provide companies with future-proof and efficient solutions within the framework of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR).

“The planned integration of Recycling Dual GmbH represents another important step in our strategic development,” says Sebastian Vollbrecht, Managing Director of EKO-PUNKT GmbH & Co. KG. “This allows us to further strengthen our market position and expand our activities in the dual systems sector.”

Jan Raumanns, also Managing Director of EKO-PUNKT GmbH & Co. KG, adds: “With this acquisition, we are sending a clear signal for sustainable growth and consolidating our position in a dynamic market environment.
