TriMas Packaging, a developer and manufacturer of specialty dispensing and closure products, recently announced a new organizational approach for its global business. Effective immediately, TriMas Packaging is shifting from a market-centric organizational structure toward a product-focused structure. The reorganization ensures a consistent customer experience and product offering across all markets and regions globally.

Our customers benefit from a consistent brand experience, access to industry experts, and the fast delivery of innovations to help them improve their market position. We are more agile and closer to the market needs. As a global player, we ensure a unique and consistent customer experience across different markets and regions.”
