Sleever® strengthens its international growth and enhances its machine range through the acquisition of Karlville Development SAS France’s business.

Paris, October 30th, 2025 – The Sleever® Group, a historic and globally recognized player in the sleeve labeling industry, announces, following the liquidation of Karlville Development SAS, the acquisition of the drawings, data, and both tangible and intangible assets associated with the Tampertec, Startec, and Combitec machine ranges developed by Karlville Development SAS.

Through this strategic move, Sleever® intends to ensure the long-term continuity of Karlville Development SAS’s tamper-evident application technologies (also historically known under the Scheidegger brand). With over 50 years of expertise and internationally recognized quality in shrink-sleeve machines, the Sleever® Group now has the resources to manufacture and improve these machines, while providing dedicated after-sales service and technical support to both current and future users of these equipment.

By integrating these proven technologies into its portfolio of solutions, Sleever® continues its commitment to providing customers with innovative, sustainable, and high-performance equipment that meet the highest industry standards. This approach is fully aligned with the Group’s strategy: to combine innovation, quality, and long-term customer support.

In parallel, Sleever® is pleased to announce the integration into its teams of several employees previously working for Karlville Development SAS. These experts will bring their expertise on maintenance, improvement, and development of the Tampertec, Startec, and Combitec machine ranges.

For any inquiries regarding support of existing machine (audits, maintenance, upgrades, new formats, spare parts orders, etc.) or for quotes on new installations, we invite all interested parties to contact our dedicated service team using the following contact details:
