“With its extensive range of high-quality packaging solutions and focus on sustainability and innovation, Pretium has scaled to become the supplier of choice for customers around the world. Pretium is also uniquely positioned to capitalise on continued sector tailwinds, including emerging trends in health and wellness, food and beverage, and home and personal care,” Rooney said in a statement.

“I am excited to join the company and partner with Pretium’s leadership team and employees, valued customers and the Clearlake team to drive future success in the business.”

Clearlake Capital Group, a leading private investment firm, acquired Pretium in 2020.

The company has since made significant investments in its operations, including expanding its manufacturing capabilities and investing in new technologies.

“He [Rooney] brings decades of packaging experience as well as a vision that complements Pretium’s service and sustainability-oriented strategy, and his operating experience aligns well with Clearlake’s OPS® [operations, people, strategy] approach,” said José E Feliciano, Clearlake’s co-founder and managing partner, and Arta Tabaee, its managing director and partner.

“Pretium is positioned to accelerate its growth and enhance its foundation of operational excellence under James, and we look forward to a successful partnership.”

With Rooney at the helm, Pretium is well-positioned to capitalise on the growing demand for sustainable packaging solutions and strengthen its position as a leading player in the industry.
