TemperPack to expand sustainable packaging operations
TemperPack currently serves over 40 customers, including meal kit and grocery e-commerce sectors.
TemperPack announced plans to expand its Richmond, Va., headquarters operations. SJF Ventures, Durham, N.C., led the $10 million fundraising round, joined by New York-based Interplay Ventures, Third Prime Capital, New York, and Dolik Ventures, also based in New York. Robert Beckler, former president of packaging at WestRock Co., Norcross, Ga., also participated in the round, and will be joining the board as executive chairman.
"E-commerce is driving revolutionary change in the way consumers experience brands,” adds Beckler. “Increasingly, packaging influences this consumer experience in a lasting way. TemperPack has tapped directly into this market trend, by providing its customers with a unique suite of insulating products that are not only great for the environment, but [also] significantly enhance the brand experience."
