Global rigid container and life sciences packaging distributor, Novvia Group (“Novvia”), has acquired Auberst Inc. (“Auberst”), a California-based distributor of plastic and metal rigid packaging solutions. Financial terms of the private transaction were not disclosed. Novvia is backed by Kelso & Company (“Kelso”).

Auberst was founded in 2001 and operates out of a 7,500+ square foot facility located in Brea, California. Auberst offers customers operating in a variety of industries a broad portfolio of rigid packaging products, including plastic jugs, cylinders, bottles, pails, and metal cans and drums.

The acquisition further strengthens Novvia’s presence on the West Coast and will be combined with Rhino Container, Novvia’s Chino, CA-based rigid packaging subsidiary, which Novvia acquired in December 2021. “We are looking forward to the continued success and expansion of our West Coast footprint and are excited to welcome Auberst to the Novvia family,” said Novvia Executive Chairman Ken Roessler.
