Maverick Advocaten assists shareholder packaging maker with divesture

Martijn van de Hel and Adriaan Craita have assisted the shareholder of Scholle IPN with the sale to SIG Combibloc. Maverick worked alongside Lennaert Posch of Rutgers & Posch, who advised on the M&A transaction. The acquisition involved a sum of $1.53 billion. Scholle IPN is a producer of flexible packaging. SIG Combibloc is a global producer of aseptic carton packaging.

Maverick Advocaten worked closely with the Brussels, London, and Washington D.C. offices of Latham & Watkins on the preparation and filing of merger notifications in the United States, Austria, Germany, Russia and Brazil. Maverick also provided Latham & Watkins with relevant information for (follow-up) questions from various competition authorities (including the UK CMA).

Earlier this year, the acquisition was extensively discussed in the media, see for example here and here.
