Belvac Production Machinery, an operating company of Dover Corporation, has announced that it has acquired Arc Pacific, a leading global supplier of can washers, dry-off, pin, and internal bake ovens for the metal packaging industry.

Arc Pacific will become part of the Belvac business unit within Dover’s Climate and Sustainability Technologies segment.

Founded in 2003, Arc Pacific has manufacturing facilities in Foshan, China, and Chonburi, Thailand. The acquisition will further strengthen Belvac’s position as a leading provider of manufacturing equipment and services to the two-piece metal packaging industry.

“Belvac has teamed with Arc Pacific on a number of successful turnkey projects, making this acquisition a great fit while adding a complementary product line offering to Belvac’s portfolio,” said Dan Metzger, chief commercial officer of Belvac. “Working with Arc Pacific has proved very successful and we are delighted to bring their industry knowledge in-house to complement our turnkey integration offerings.”

“Arc Pacific became a leader in their product segments within the can-making industry through its innovative oven technology, differentiated manufacturing capabilities, and energy-efficient platforms focused on CO₂ emissions reduction and pollutant mitigation,” commented Belvac’s president, David Mammolenti. Arc Pacific’s management team will join Belvac.
