Improve onboarding speeds by up to 90%, so you can quickly benefit from new partner relationships. Get the visibility you need Get access to real-time information on optimal routes, incoming shipments or inter-modal transportation. Visibility into supply operations and the ability to optimize routes dynamically with real-time data can transform your business. Automate for efficiency Automate manual tasks for your team to minimize human errors and increase their capacity to focus on initiatives crucial to company growth. Collaborate across the supply chain Build logistics resiliency against supply chain disruptions such as geo-political issues and natural disasters, with the ability to share data and information via a unified platform.

Through close collaboration, both companies have successfully developed a fully recyclable mono-material polypropylene (PP) packaging solution that combines technical innovation and sustainability. This jointly developed project once again demonstrates how inks and coatings, combined with packaging converting expertise, can continue to drive circular innovations. Siegwerk, one of the world’s leading providers of printing inks and coatings for packaging and label applications, and Enplater Group, a specialist in the printing and production of rigid and flexible packaging, today announced the joint development of an innovative mono-material polypropylene (PP) packaging solution that delivers high technical performance while facilitating recyclability. The joint development combines Siegwerk’s expertise in high-performance, regulation-compliant ink and coating systems with Enplater’s extensive knowledge and experience in rigid and flexible packaging. Through close collaboration between the technical and R&D teams of both companies, comprehensive testing was carried out under real production conditions, generating data and results that supported the optimization of the new high-barrier mono-material PP packaging structure for food applications. “As the packaging industry continues its transition toward circular solutions, collaboration across the value chain is essential to drive further innovation,” said Javier García, Sales and Technology Director for the Iberian Peninsula at Siegwerk. “By combining our advanced ink and coating technologies with Enplater’s specialized converting expertise, we have been able to develop a mono-material PP packaging solution that delivers performance comparable to existing multi-material barrier structures, while supporting the material efficiency required to meet the design-for-recycling requirements outlined in the PPWR.”

The TAWI Order Picker is a fully mobile vacuum lifter that mounts to any forklift or low‑level order picker (LLOP). It enables one person to pick faster and more safely, reducing manual strain while maintaining throughput during peak periods.

This durable mobile workstation brings technology and tools wherever work needs to happen to help eliminate extra time-consuming steps that can contribute to errors or workplace discomfort and injuries. It supports comfortable and efficient workflows to boost productivity in healthcare, manufacturing, warehouse and other fast-paced environments.

Enplater Group, in collaboration with SM Resinas and Dow, introduces a new generation of flexible packaging based on a predominantly polyethylene (MonoPE) structure, developed to replace traditional multilayer solutions such as PA/PE or PET/PE, while maintaining mechanical performance and improving compatibility with PE recycling streams. The main added value of this innovation lies in its ability to deliver functional equivalence in terms of mechanical strength, particularly puncture and impact resistance, which are critical factors in demanding applications such as fatty products, sharp-edged items, or heavy-weight formats. This new generation of MonoPE addresses the circularity requirements driven by European regulations and the need to reduce multi-material structures, offering the market a technically robust, industrially viable alternative designed to meet current industry demands, particularly in sectors such as meat, cheese, frozen foods, and ready meals suitable for microwave heating under defined conditions. Unlike conventional laminated structures made from heterogeneous materials, this solution has been formulated to enhance compatibility with polyethylene recycling streams, simplify structural architecture, and preserve production efficiency across different packaging lines as much as possible. Integrated high-barrier performance The structure allows for the incorporation of high-barrier systems compatible with recognized recyclability criteria, maintaining appropriate levels of protection against oxygen and moisture according to the specific requirements of each application. This capability extends its range of use to segments traditionally reserved for PA and/or PET-based structures, without compromising functionality or food safety standards. Thermal performance and functionality The material has been engineered to provide stable performance in microwaveable applications.

Today, virtually all products we encounter in modern life carry coded information. Manufacturer data, product identifications, prices, item numbers, and much more are converted into machine-readable barcodes and 2D codes. These must be read quickly, reliably, and without errors at supermarket checkouts as well as across many areas of logistics and industry.

The Schur®Star Paper Bag is designed specifically for automated filling, combining the visual appeal of paper with the operational reliability required in industrial packaging. Unlike many paper-based solutions that are limited to manual or low-speed packing, this format runs on the Schur®Star system with consistent opening, stable bag handling and precise filling. The bag structure is engineered to maintain shape and stiffness during the entire packing process, supporting smooth infeed, controlled filling and reliable sealing. This makes it suitable for a wide range of finished products, including dry foods and non-food items, while ensuring a clean and presentable retail appearance. One of its key advantages is flexibility in production. The Schur®Star Paper Bag can be run on the same machine platform as standard film-based bags, allowing producers to switch between materials quickly without additional tooling or complex changeovers. This enables efficient handling of mixed product ranges, seasonal items or short production runs. With strong branding surfaces and a natural paper look, the format supports clear communication on shelf while remaining compatible with automated, scalable production. In short, it offers a practical way to introduce paper-based packaging without compromising efficiency or process stability.
