The Pulver Packaging operations will remain in Elk Grove, IL, and will become part of LPI, a Milwaukee, WI-based division of SWPG, known for helping customers distinguish their brands with distinctive, custom packaging solutions that include custom graphical printing, high-end enhancements and finishes coupled with advanced digital technology capabilities.
