Amcor serves a diverse customer base, including food and beverage companies requiring high-barrier packaging, pharmaceutical manufacturers seeking compliance-driven healthcare wraps, and consumer products brands focused on sustainability. The company has invested in technologies and processes designed to reduce material use, increase recyclability and incorporate post-consumer recycled content, in line with industry trends toward circular packaging.

The company is led by President and Chief Executive Officer Ron Delia, who has overseen initiatives to streamline the organization’s global network, enhance innovation capabilities and deepen partnerships with key customers.
