SmaK Plastics, Inc. acquires Flextank USA
Vancouver, Wash.—SmaK Plastics, Inc. has acquired wine tank supplier Flextank USA. SmaK Plastics has worked with Flextank since 2007 when the company began manufacturing the rotational molding of Flextank’s tanks. In 2010, Flextank founders and previous owners John and Jan Smeaton hired SmaK Plastics’ vice president of sales Mike Humes as their vice president of operations.
In April, the Smeatons decided to sell the assets of Flextank USA to SmaK Plastics with the intention of retiring to their vineyard in Adelaide, Australia. John Smeaton will remain on staff as a consultant in new product development while remaining active in the export market, according to the press release announcing the deal.
