We collaborate with key industry companies from across the packaging value chain to bridge the gap between material development, product characteristics and brand owner / end-user requirements.

Cross-value chain and industry collaboration

As the development of new technologies and market dynamics across the packaging industry forces companies to re-design and re-position themselves in their respective fields, the need for strategic partnering arises more frequently.
