New dimensions in sustainable packaging

Our vision is to provide intelligent and sustainable packaging solutions for everyone. It is our mission to deliver packaging technology that can process the eco-friendliest materials efficiently while minimizing resource consumption. We support our customers on their sustainability journey with material testing, machine applications and innovative packaging designed to meet the requirements of their products, transport modes, and regional circumstances. Longer, wider, taller – that was yesterday. Smaller, thinner, more innovative – that’s what tomorrow’s dimensions in packaging are all about.

Initial plunge towards sustainable packaging

In order to offer reliable, sustainable paper-based packaging solutions for large and medium-sized confectionery customers, we have entered into a strategic partnership with innovator Sappi Europe. While we normally pursue a packaging-material-independent approach and Sappi pursues a packaging-machine-independent approach, customers can now benefit from our combined expertise.

Making the transition to eco-friendly packaging

Minimizing environmental impact


We strive to limit the environmental impact of our activities and to decrease our use of resources wherever possible. Continually improving on existing solutions by reducing material and energy consumption is a matter of course, as we aim at minimizing the ecological footprint of our equipment. In addition, we are reducing energy consumption and emissions at our production sites while moving towards renewable energies and increasing the share of recyclable waste.

Rethinking packaging


Avoid. Reuse. Recycle. This is how energy and material cycles are transformed into (nearly) closed loops. We partner with packaging designers, material specialists, food manufacturers, retailers, policymakers, associations and industry initiatives. As technology and mechanical engineering experts, we drive innovation. From replacing adhesives with ultrasonic sealing, to designing uniquely shaped paper pods, together we are challenging conventional packaging.
