Company history
SIG’s industrial origins date to 1853, when it was founded in Neuhausen, Switzerland, as a railway-wagon works. It entered packaging machinery in 1906 and, by 1930, had developed a beverage carton and filling machine for the European market. In 1975, PKL introduced the combibloc aseptic carton system; SIG acquired PKL in 1989, marking its entry into beverage cartons and liquid-food packaging.[27][28]
After refocusing on packaging around 2000, SIG expanded through partnerships and ownership changes. SIG Combibloc Obeikan was established as a joint venture with Saudi Arabia’s Obeikan Investment Group in 2001, and SIG took full ownership in 2021. Following its acquisition by Onex in 2015, SIG Combibloc listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange in 2018; Onex completed its exit in 2020.[29][30][31][32][33]
In 2022, SIG acquired Scholle IPN, adding bag-in-box and spouted-pouch packaging, and Evergreen Asia’s chilled-carton business. It subsequently expanded its manufacturing footprint with a chilled-carton factory in Suzhou, China, opened in 2024, and its first aseptic-carton plant in India, which began commercial production in 2025.[34][35][36][37] [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37]
