Sipse, which is located at Nozay in the Essonne departement, makes a turnover of FFr 50mn in adhesive labels. CPC is now well installed on the adhesive label market in France, the Benelux countries, Germany, and Eastern European countries, and it hopes to make a turnover of FFr 100mn with adhesive lables in 2001.
