The plant will be fitted with latest industrial machinery intended to serve clients in the European market and will include a showroom for MEADOW KAPSUL to allow partners and prospective customers to see the technology and its applications across food, personal care and home-product categories.

The announcement follows the European Union’s February 2025 adoption of the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation, which sets binding targets for recyclability and material reduction.

The new plant is projected to increase regional capacity to cope up with rising demand for packaging solutions that are compliant with regulation and designed to address packaging waste.

Meadow CEO and co-founder Victor Ljungberg stated: “We are thrilled to announce this partnership with FILLSY. It marks a major production foothold for Meadow in Europe, and comes at a time of growing market demand for our solutions.”

FILLSY co-founder Paweł Siwirski stated: “By establishing this factory at the heart of Europe, in a country that is a growing hub for FMCG [fast-moving consumer goods] innovation, we are ensuring that the MEADOW KAPSUL system is readily available to brands across the continent.

“This investment is a huge step in strengthening Europe’s capacity to deliver sustainable packaging at scale, supporting the cosmetics and wider consumer goods industries as they work to comply with […] packaging and waste regulation.”
