Prinzhorn's Dunapack to buy Stora Enso's German corrugated units, EUR 74m 2025 revenue

Austria's Dunapack Packaging, part of the privately held Prinzhorn Group, has agreed to acquire Stora Enso's German corrugated packaging operations: Gaster Wellpappe, Wellpappe Sausenheim and PTI. The businesses, located in south-west Germany, employ 350 people and generated EUR 74m in revenue in 2025. The deal is subject to merger control clearance and is expected to close this year.

Why this mattersThe exit lets Stora Enso retrench in German corrugated as Dunapack expands footprint and raises its paper integration rate within Prinzhorn's containerboard business.
