WinCup Strengthens Sustainability with Acquisition of Paper Cup Maker ConverPack

WinCup, Inc., a national leader in sustainable foodservice packaging, has acquired ConverPack Inc., a global producer of hot and cold paper cups, significantly expanding its manufacturing capabilities at its Tolleson, Arizona facility. The acquisition bolsters WinCup’s position in the $3 billion paper cup market and supports growth of its phade® line—marine biodegradable and compostable paper cups available nationwide at Walmart. CEO Brad Laporte emphasized that the move advances WinCup’s long-standing environmental stewardship while scaling production of eco-friendly, plastic-free alternatives. Founded over five decades ago, WinCup continues to innovate under the ownership of Atar Capital, which acquired the company in 2020. The Arizona Manufacturers Council lauded the acquisition as a model of industrial sustainability and innovation, underscoring the state’s leadership in environmentally responsible manufacturing. WinCup now operates eight manufacturing facilities across the U.S.
