WE ARE READY FOR PPWR

With its slogan „We are ready for PPWR”, Fernholz Verpackungen showcased a broad portfolio of PPWR-compliant products and procedures at the FACHPACK in Nuremberg.

75% increase in silo capacities

Following completion of the construction work and commissioning of the plant at the end of April, Fernholz was able to increase the already high silo capacities at the film site in Schkopau by another 75%.

Greater collaborative efficiency thanks to EDI

Two years ago, Fernholz made significant progress in the area of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) by implementing a modern ERP system. EDI enables us to interact directly with our customers and thus offers numerous advantages in our day-to-day routines.

Hot washed flakes

“Hot washed flakes” are an important component in the recycling process for plastic packaging. These flakes are obtained through a multi-stage cleaning process aimed at removing impurities and increasing the purity of the recycled material.

Squaring the circle

In cooperation with a well-known customer from the dairy industry, Fernholz has developed another innovative packaging solution: a 1-litre, PP mono-material bucket for quark and yoghurt.

EU approval for PET recycling

Fernholz Verpackungen has received approval from the European Union to process recycled PET for direct food contact. This makes the company one of the few companies in Germany that can offer a fully EU-approved recycling process.

PP sheets in focus

Der Markt für Kunststoffverpackungsfolien in Europa steht vor bedeutenden Veränderungen. Sowohl neue Gesetze und Vorschriften aus Brüssel und Berlin als auch selbstauferlegte hohe Standards der Unternehmen in Bezug auf Nachhaltigkeit und Recyclingfähigkeit fordern neue Lösungsansätze. Michael Roth, Geschäftsführer von Fernholz und Leiter des Bereichs Folien, gab dem Fernholz-Insider Einblicke darin, wie Fernholz aktiv daran arbeitet, innovative Lösungen zu entwickeln und sich den wachsenden Anforderungen des Marktes anzupassen.
