History

 

CCL was founded in 1951 as Connecticut Chemicals Limited. In 1979, the name was changed to CCL Industries. It originally focused on custom manufacturing for the Canadian consumer products industry. Starting in the 1980s, it expanded into labels and other packaging, and also expanded internationally into the United States and the United Kingdom. It went public on the Toronto Stock Exchange in 1999. In the 2000s, it started shifting away from custom manufacturing and towards labels and packaging; in 2005, it sold its custom manufacturing business to KCP Income Fund for $256 million. In 2006, it sold its interest in ColepCCP, a European custom manufacturing joint venture with Portuguese company RAR, for $140 million. In 2013, it acquired Avery for $500 million from Avery Dennison, its biggest acquisition to that time. In 2015, it bought Worldmark, a British labelling company specializing in labels for the technology sector, for $255 million. In 2016, it acquired Checkpoint Systems for $422 million. In December 2016, CCL acquired Innovia Films Ltd, a British specialty films company, for $1.13 billion Canadian Dollars. In 2017, it joined the S&P/TSX 60.
