Mauser Group, which manufactures rigid industrial packaging and containers for the chemicals industry, filed on Friday with the SEC to raise up to $100 million in an initial public offering. However, the deal size is likely a placeholder for an IPO that could raise $300 million.

The Amsterdam, Netherlands-based company, which was founded in 1896 and booked $1.4 billion in sales for the 12 months ended December 31, 2014, plans to list on the NYSE. It has not selected a ticker. BofA Merrill Lynch, Credit Suisse, Citi, Baird, Deutsche Bank and Jefferies are the joint bookrunners on the deal. No pricing terms were disclosed.
