Stahl has completed the integration of Weilburger Graphics’ packaging coatings operations in Turkey.

Following the acquisition of Weilburger Graphics by Stahl in 2024, this transition in Turkey strengthens Stahl’s footprint in the packaging coatings market and deepens its commitment to serving local customers with world-class coating solutions.

By converting the former Weilburger Graphics operations into Stahl Kimya, Stahl is expanding its role in Turkey and reinforcing its position as one of the world’s leading suppliers of packaging coatings. Stahl Kimya will offer an extended range of high-performance, fit-for-the-future coating solutions backed by global expertise and local know-how.

“Turkey is a strategically important market for Stahl, and the integration of Weilburger Graphics’ activities allows us to serve our local customers with even greater efficiency and innovation,” says Raymond Bakker, business director packaging coatings, EMEA. “By uniting the strengths of both companies, we are creating a stronger organization committed to supporting the fast-evolving needs of the packaging industry.”

Stahl has taken every measure to ensure a smooth and seamless transition for customers in Turkey. As part of the transition, Serkan Bekar will continue in his role as sales manager, providing customers with uninterrupted support. Effective 1 Dec. 1, 2025, all orders related to packaging coatings in Turkey will be processed directly through Stahl Kimya.
