Labelmakers Group has strengthened its flexible packaging capability through the acquisition of the majority of the flexible packaging assets operated by Perfection Packaging at its Dandenong South site in Victoria.

The asset-only transaction covers machinery located at 19–25 Nathan Road, Dandenong South, with Labelmakers also securing a 10-year lease on the facility from March 2026. The deal does not include the continuation of Perfection Packaging’s business operations or employees.

Perfection Packaging entered voluntary administration in October 2025 as a division of Pro-Pac Packaging Limited (PPG). In the subsequent sale of PPG, the decision was taken to shut down Perfection Packaging's operations this February.

For Labelmakers, the move expands its wide-web flexible footprint, enabling the company to offer state-of-the-art printing capability across two Victorian sites. The Dandenong South facility will operate in conjunction with its existing Somerton site.

The acquired assets include advanced gravure presses capable of handling complex varnishes and cold seal adhesives, as well as solventless lamination systems, extending Labelmakers’ technical scope in high-performance flexible packaging.

Managing director Adam Bamford said the acquisition enhances both market capacity and customer assurance.

“We’re excited for the opportunity to offer the flexible packaging market another supply option under the Labelmakers banner, whilst at the same time providing our existing customers long term supply continuity,” Bamford said.

The addition of the Dandenong South site provides increased redundancy and production depth, reinforcing domestic flexible packaging capability at a time when supply security remains a priority for brand owners and converters.
