RPC Group (OTCMKTS:RPCGF) was a global designer and manufacturer of plastic packaging solutions, serving a wide range of end markets including food and beverage, healthcare, household goods, and industrial products. The company specialized in injection molding, blow molding and thermoforming, offering customers a full suite of services from concept design and tooling through to volume production and supply chain management.
Founded in 1991 through a management buyout of a packaging division, RPC Group expanded rapidly through both organic growth and strategic acquisitions, building a network of more than 200 manufacturing sites across Europe, the Americas and Asia-Pacific. Over the years, the company targeted high-growth segments such as personal care, medical devices and speciality food packaging, positioning itself as a partner to major consumer goods and industrial companies.
RPC’s product portfolio encompassed rigid containers, closures, medical components, trays and tubs, and specialty packaging for perishable and sensitive goods. The company invested in lightweighting, material innovation and recycling initiatives to meet rising sustainability expectations and regulatory standards. Its technical centres and customer support teams collaborated with brand owners to develop bespoke packaging solutions that balanced functionality, cost and environmental impact.
Until its acquisition in 2019 by Berry Global Group, Inc., RPC Group was led by CEO Graham Chipchase and chaired by Sir Stephen Buxton. Under their leadership, the company strengthened its position as one of the world’s leading pure-play plastic packaging firms, with a reputation for engineering expertise, geographic reach and diversified end-market exposure. The integration into Berry Global created one of the largest broadline and specialty packaging platforms in the industry.
