hubergroup, a global specialist in printing inks and chemicals, has formed a strategic partnership with manroland Goss web systems, a leading provider of web offset printing solutions, in a bid to drive innovation in sustainable packaging by combining the expertise of both companies.
The partnership seeks to address the urgent need for sustainable packaging solutions by leveraging the combined knowledge and resources of hubergroup and manroland Goss. The companies are actively inviting brand owners, manufacturers, and packagers to join their efforts.
To kick off the collaboration, project teams from both organisations have been established. These teams recently held initial workshops to define the collaboration framework and set goals. During a brainstorming session, the teams generated creative ideas for future sustainable and colourful packaging solutions.
Thomas Polster, global key account manager and manager of Global Business Development Brand Owner at hubergroup, commented on the partnership: “At the heart of our partnership and teamwork lies a blend of fun, productivity, and creativity – all dedicated to revolutionising packaging. We firmly believe that collective action is key to tackling waste and conserving resources. Let’s unite to make a significant impact.”
