Avery Dennison announced that it has acquired Thermopatch, a company specializing in labeling, embellishments, and transfers for the sports, industrial laundry, workwear, and hospitality industries. Thermopatch, headquartered in Syracuse, New York, had revenues of approximately $40 million in 2022. With operations in North America and Europe, the company has approximately 200 employees. Thermopatch will become part of the Avery Dennison's Solutions Group. 

"We are thrilled to welcome Thermopatch into the Avery Dennison family. It's an excellent strategic fit for expanding our position in embellishments, labels, and transfers," said Michael Barton, senior vice president and general manager, Apparel Solutions, Solutions Group. "We continue to accelerate our progress within our external embellishments business, going from strength to strength and entering new markets. In doing so, we are building on last year's launch of Embelex, Avery Dennison's full-service, end-to-end platform for on-product branding, graphics, and trims, and accelerating our strategy to drive growth and innovation in this market. Combining Thermopatch and our strong product portfolio and long-standing customer relationships will enable us to continue to grow and deliver value for all our stakeholders."
