Suffolk-based labels manufacturer, Abbey Labels, has joined the Asteria Group, the international group, with over 40 print plants across Europe.

Writing on LinkedIn Tom Allum, Abbey Labels chairman, said: “Joining the Asteria family represents an exciting new chapter for Abbey Labels. With their support, we now have the strength, resources and backing of a much larger organisation, providing us with exciting opportunities to further invest in and grow the business.
 
“Importantly, we will retain our own identity, with the existing management team and myself continuing to lead and run Abbey Labels as we always have, maintaining the values, relationships and personal service on which we have built our reputation. I am extremely proud of what we have achieved over the past 50 years and look forward to building on that success as part of the Asteria family.”

Ives Declerk, Asteria Group CEO, added: “Founded more than 50 years ago by Peter Allum, Abbey Labels, has grown into a highly respected label manufacturer while retaining the values of a family business. Its success reflects decades of hard work, continued investment and a genuine commitment to its people and customers.

“These are values we recognise and share across Asteria. I look forward to working with Tom Allum and the entire Abbey team, building on what they have achieved and creating new opportunities together.”
