MAUSER
IBC service joint venture with Weiss Tankwagenreinigung / Strengthening presence in German industrial region
National Container Group (NCG; www.ncg-europe.com), the reconditioning subsidiary of German intermediate bulk container (IBC) manufacturer Mauser (Brühl; www.mausergroup.com) has formed a joint venture with German reconditioning service provider Weiss Tankwagenreinigung (Bickenbach; www.weiss-service-center.de). Financial details of this transaction were not disclosed. The newly formed company NCG/Weiss IBC-Servicecenter, majority owned by Mauser NCG, will mainly offer reconditioned IBCs and a full service for steel IBCs at the Weiss facility in Bickenbach. The jv will also take over Weiss Tankwagenreinigung GmbH's IBC business and the facilities at said location. It is logistically connected, adapts to requirements of IBC cleaning, offers expansion capabilities and complies with environmental protection and safety.

This investment gives NCG strong representation in an important German industrial region. Due to its strategic location, this jv also gives Mauser NCG efficiency in its distribution to central and southern Germany. The company will also contribute to improved CO2 balance with shortened transport routes and service times. In addition, NCG banks to benefit from the Weiss family's experience and reputation in the region and the industry. Hans-Peter Schaefer, CEO of the Mauser Group, said, "The company has excellent know-how, which combined with our experience in IBC reconditioning is very promising."

Mauser is a global group with approximately 4,000 employees with a consolidated revenue of EUR 1 bn. The group operates 60 sites and multiple joint ventures throughout the world, including a recent one with Bressan Inovações Ambientais (Canoas / Brazil; www.bressantambor.com.br) – see Plasteurope.com of 11.04.2012.
