POLIFILM

As the year draws to a close, we would like to thank you for the professional and co-operative partnership as well as the special and enriching relationships built with you. We look forward to continuing building on this with renewed vigour in the New Year, but before this, we would like to wish you and those closest to you a harmonious festive season and a healthy start to a prosperous 2025.

As the year draws to a close, it is a good opportunity to look back. ✨ In this respect, we came across a project by POLIFILM America that had, up to now, been operating quietly out of the spotlight. POLIFILM America donated around 250,000 USD to a research group that is looking for a treatment for a rare genetic defect. You are invited to read more about the project: https://lnkd.in/ehe3R3BD

#TSL, our logistic company, takes a significant step towards modernizing its operations at the site in Weissandt-Goelzau: They have replaced the entire LPG-powered forklift fleet in the raw materials, auxiliary materials, and finished goods warehouse with 25 electric forklifts. To support this transition, a new charging station from SEINE Batteriesysteme has been installed. It features 27 charging points for traction batteries and is equipped with automated control (AxiNet), fully integrated into our local energy management system. By doing so, TSL is following its energy-conscious logistics approach.

ALL GOOD THINGS COME IN THREES. POLIFILM PROTECTION DEUTSCHLAND, one of our distribution companies, is expanding its converting capacities. A third sew from CEVENINI has been added to the local converting centre to increase the flexibility for our customers, sales and service go hand in hand for POLIFILM.

Last week was packed with events! Klaus Renz had the pleasure to present our all-in-one solution at the #FutureResources in Cologne - a symposium for all stakeholders in the packaging and recycling industry by Interzero. A huge thank you to the entire team for having us and giving us the chance to showcase our ♻ non-laminated adhesive free coffee bags to such a great audience!

It was such a big pleasure! Not only for our colleague Susanne Zobel-Reusch, who presented how to be sustainably well positioned with PE and PP mono-film solutions ♻, like MDO-PE as PET replacement or non-laminated adhesive free coffee bags. But also, for us as a company. Being part of such a great event like the 8th European Stand up Pouch Conference in Vienna and sharing ideas, approaches and solutions with leading industry drivers, is always one of our highlights.✨ A huge thank you to Karsten Schroeder Schröder and the entire #Innoform team for this opportunity and the well thought out organisation. 🙏 We are looking forward to the next event!
