OCP Dunnedin Ventures, Inc.

CCL Industries Inc. (TSX:CCL.A)(TSX:CCL.B) ("CCL"), a world leader in specialty
label and packaging solutions for global corporations, small businesses and
consumers confirmed today that it has completed the acquisition of Avery
Dennison's Office & Consumer Products ("OCP") and Designed & Engineered
Solutions ("DES") businesses previously announced on January 30, 2013, for a
debt-free cash purchase price of US$500 million subject to customary
post-closing adjustments to be finalized during the third quarter.


The OCP business will cease to use its former Avery Dennison divisional identity
and trade with immediate effect simply as "Avery" becoming a publicly reportable
operating segment of CCL, with effect from the third quarter of 2013.


The Company announced that it is appointing Jim Sellors as President of Avery
North America with immediate effect. Mr. Sellors is a long-term CCL leader most
recently serving as Group Vice President of the North American and Australian
Healthcare & Specialty label business. Prior to CCL, he spent several years in
the United States in Marketing & Product Development at Newell Rubbermaid. Mark
Cooper has been appointed Vice President & Managing Director for Avery in Europe
and Asia Pacific and will join CCL in August from Bong AB, a leading European
supplier of envelopes. Mr. Cooper previously spent more than 20 years at Avery
Dennison predominantly in their OCP sector in both Europe and the United States.


Both executives will report to Geoffrey T. Martin, President and CEO of CCL, who
commented, "I would like to acknowledge Tim Bond, President of OCP Worldwide,
for the excellent support he has given us in the lengthy transition and
integration process which will continue through the summer period. He indicated
early on that he may well pursue an alternative path for personal and
professional reasons and so it has proved. I'm sure many of our customers and
new employees will join me in thanking him for his leadership, particularly
during the exhaustive divestiture period, and wish him every success in the
future. We are very fortunate to have found two such highly experienced leaders
to succeed him and take the iconic 'Avery' brand with its global reputation as a
digital printing enabler into a successful future under CCL ownership."


The DES business will be integrated into and augment an enlarged CCL Label
reporting segment. Acquired operations involved in the automotive and consumer
durables markets will trade as CCL Design alongside the Company's existing
business in Germany. Remaining DES facilities will become important additions to
the market sector business units of CCL Label. CCL Container will continue as
the third reporting segment of the Company.


CCL Industries employs approximately 9,800 people and operates 87 production
facilities in 25 countries on 5 continents with corporate offices in Toronto,
Canada, and Framingham, Massachusetts. CCL Label is the world's largest
converter of pressure sensitive and film materials for a wide range of
decorative, instructional and functional applications for large global customers
in the consumer packaging, healthcare, automotive and consumer durables markets.
Extruded plastic tubes, folded instructional leaflets, precision printed & die
cut metal components with LED displays and other complementary products and
services are sold in parallel to specific end use markets. Avery is the world's
largest supplier of labels, specialty converted media and software solutions to
enable short run digital printing in businesses and homes alongside
complementary office products sold through distributors and mass market
retailers. CCL Container is a leading producer of impact extruded aluminum
aerosol cans and bottles for consumer packaged goods customers in the United
States, Canada and Mexico.
