The European Union is moving towards a system of digital product passports that will significantly change how packaging information is recorded and shared.
The site makes paper bags for customers in the eCommerce, food, feed, building materials and chemicals markets.
When used together with plant-based polymers, the package has a renewable content of 90%, according to the company.
The project, which entailed an investment of over $35m, aims to add air-knife coating capability in the region.
The company said trading in the first quarter of 2026 “remained challenging”, with underlying EBITDA at €212m.
With rising transport costs and dimensional pricing, packaging now directly drives logistics spend rather than being a secondary concern.
Nearshoring is reshaping the packaging supply chain as companies prioritise shorter lead times, improved resilience, and stronger sustainability performance.
The products include the QUADFLEX LFQ quad-seal pouch and PRO-EVO SOS multiwall paper bags.
