As a packaging manufacturing, we’re aware of our particular responsibilities. As such, the idea of sustainability isn’t just another trend at Papier-Mettler, but rather a conviction we’ve held firm for decades.
We see climate change and the scarcity of fossil resources as the greatest ecological challenge facing the world. And it’s as a company that we can have the greatest influence. We develop materials made from renewable or recycled raw materials with the aim of making alternative packaging solutions accessible to the mass market. Our long-term strategy targets innovations designed to lighten the load on the environment.
We’re always looking for solutions to reuse packaging after its initial use. Even from the early development stage, we’re assessing our products for potential reuse. Our goal will only be achieved when we can implement closed material life cycles. Papier-Mettler covers the entire life cycle of a product – from manufacturing to usage and disposal. We’ve been working on our specially-developed recycling concept continuously since 1992 – both in the paper and plastics sectors. As such, our motto is always: reduce, reuse, recycle.
