Espoo , which manufactures and suppliespackaging for various uses. Its primary outputs includecarton s and containers for foods and other consumer goods, disposabletableware and films and laminates for such uses asadhesive s, plasters and labels. The company was initially established as a manufacturer ofconfectionery in 1920 and grew in size over the years, eventually becoming an industrial conglomerate with such diverse product lines as ladies' clothing,pharmaceuticals andelectronic component s. A packaging division was established in 1965 under the Polarpak brand. In 1988, it was decided to concentrate on a single business area. Many business units were divested over the following decade, including the pharmaceutical division Leiras (sold toSchering ) and the original candy business (which by this point included the Leaf brand). During the same period, a large number of packaging companies were acquired. Today Huhtamäki is solely focused on the packaging sector with around 15,000 employees in over 30 countries.References
