Reflecting on the success of Customer Academy Bologna! Last week, we hosted our Customer Academy in Bologna, bringing together industry experts and partners for an inspiring and action-packed few days. We commenced the event with a tour of our Constantia San Prospero plant, offering attendees a closer look at the innovations driving our packaging solutions. The next day was centered around sustainability in pharma packaging, with a keynote from us, followed by guest presentations on Aluminum Recycling and Life Cycle Assessment. The day wrapped up with a lively panel discussion on the challenges of Sustainable Blister Packaging, featuring insights from Constantia Flexibles, IMA, and KP. To round out the event, participants toured IMA Group, one of our valued partners, to see how we are collaborating to deliver more sustainable solutions for the future. A huge thank you to everyone who joined and contributed to making this event so impactful. It is our mission to keep pushing the boundaries of sustainability in pharma packaging together. #CustomerAcademy #Sustainability #PharmaPackaging #ConstantiaFlexibles

This year proudly marks 75 years of innovation and growth at our Burgos production plant. Founded in 1949 as "La Cellophane Española," the plant has been a pioneer in industrial progress, evolving from producing cellophane paper to becoming a global leader in flexible packaging for the pharmaceutical and food sectors. Today, it produces 260 million square meters of packaging annually—enough to cover 37,000 soccer fields—and specializes in adhesive lamination and metallization processes. Sustainability has always been a key focus. With 7,000 square meters of solar panels, the plant generates 15% of its energy from renewable sources. We are also advancing more eco-friendly packaging innovations like EcoLam and EcoVer, aligned with Europe’s environmental standards. To mark this milestone, Tobepal is welcoming 500 visitors—current employees, their families, and former workers of Cellophane Española—from November 2024 to February 2025 to tour the plant and reconnect with its rich history. As we honor our achievements, we remain dedicated to driving sustainable innovation and delivering value to the industries and communities we serve. Here’s to the next 75 years! #ConstantiaTobepal #75YearsStrong #Sustainability #Innovation #FlexiblePackaging

Training and collaboration with our customer Mondelēz International for sustainable packaging innovation We mutually agreed on accelerating collaboration between both companies, prompted by the suggestion from Mondelez of extending historical and existing partnerships with the exchange of knowledge on chosen topics. The result was an exciting collaboration and training session with Mondelez at their R&D Center in Wroclaw, with remote participation from their Munich team. This first meeting was all about diving into the future of packaging innovation and sustainability. Our team of 14 experts from Constantia Flexibles presented advancements across aluminum production, heat seal coatings, high barrier papers, twist films, and our innovative Ecolutions product range. The day sparked a dynamic exchange of ideas and solutions, setting the groundwork for what is shaping up to be an impactful partnership. Next, we welcomed a second invite to Mondelez’s Bournville R&D Centre in the UK to once again present and discuss our collaborative innovation. Together with Mondelez, we are pushing the boundaries of sustainable packaging—and the best is yet to come. #Sustainability #Innovation #Collaboration #Packaging #Ecolutions
