Henkel

Henkel bottle with 50% recycled content

Sustainability is a relevant topic, and more and more companies are committed to promoting a circular economy and making a positive environmental contribution with their products. Consumer goods company Henkel pursues ambitious packaging targets – one of the recent examples on its way to further increase the usage of recycled material is a sustainable packaging solution for the toilet cleaner from the Pro Nature product range: the bottle now contains 50% post-consumer recycled polyethylene (r-PE). Greiner Packaging is one of Henkel’s packaging suppliers for this product.

Zero-fault packaging

Zero-fault packaging – myth or reality?

Quality is one of the biggest differentiators in the packaging industry. Other factors matter too of course – cost efficiency, sustainability, lead times – but ultimately if packaging fails the quality test, it can jeopardize a whole run, and a customer relationship with it. In some sectors – pharmaceuticals for example – packaging faults can have even more significant consequences.

Eumos

EUMOS takes cargo testing for safe transport to the highest level

EUMOS, the European Safe Logistics Association, today launched the revision of its recognized “test method for load unit rigidity” standard ensuring cargo packed on a Cargo Transport Unit (CTU) will travel even more safely from origin to destination. The new EUMOS 40509:2020 will provide the most precise results in relation to any standard regarding load rigidity developed in the past by adding new evaluation elements with respect to the ones foreseen by the original standard EUMOS 40509 from 2012.
