Tosca Has Finalized Its Acquisition of Contraload NV

August 19, 2020 By Rick LeBlanc

Atlanta, Georgia, August 18, 2020 – Tosca, an innovator in reusable packaging and supply chain solutions, has finalized the acquisition of Contraload NV, a leader in plastic pallet pooling in the United Kingdom and European Union.

The acquisition of Contraload enables Tosca to service supply chains end to end, from the first mile to the last mile. It also expands Tosca’s geographic reach and increases its product portfolio. Together the combined company offers customers more flexibility and better service.

Headquartered in Aartselaar, Belgium, Contraload is a leading provider of upstream reusable plastic pallets and bulk containers for the FMCG industry and other commercial markets in Europe. The company runs a unique Pan-European pooling service and offers outsourced pallet and layerpad conditioning and management services for customer-owned asset pools. Contraload was founded in 2004 and has approximately 3 million units in use, serving close to 3,000 companies.

“This strategic acquisition is a great complement to Tosca’s pooling business,” stated Eric Frank, president and CEO of Tosca. “The acquisition allows us to bring an expanded product portfolio, additional service centers, and new geographies to our partners. Contraload shares our commitment to sustainability and together we will continue building the reusable revolution, bringing efficiencies and savings to supply chains all over the world.”
