The move is part of plans for the merchant to develop its status as a one-stop-shop paper merchant. Robert Horne managing director Dave Allen said he is not ruling out further acquisitions in the market.
He said: "This signals our commitment to sustained growth within the plastics market which complements our position as market leader in the graphic display industry.
"We will continue to develop this market both by organic growth and possible future acquisitions."
