Thinking sustainably means taking holistic action

We do not just want to be producing, filling and packaging in a highly environmentally, climate-friendly way. We also want to be helping our customers to achieve their own sustainability targets. To put it in a nutshell, we want to set an example in the areas environment, social responsibility and corporate governance. It's an ambitious goal that requires both a comprehensive and a structured approach. To do it, we have defined three lines of action.

Circular Packaging

Sustainable packaging solutions that make a circular economy possible. The vision involves continually reusing materials to prevent loss.

Sustainable Technology

Machines and systems that operate at maximum efficiency and save resources, and do so throughout the entire product life cycle.

Corporate Sustainability

Manage ecologically, fairly, and focused on the long term, and thus drastically reduce the consumption of resources and emissions associated with value creation.
