Designing sustainable packaging: know-how from the experts
Our workshops give you the tools to achieve your sustainability goals.
Whether online or as a classroom event, our workshops offer producers, retailers and distributors a thorough grounding in the topic of sustainable packaging design. Benefit from the know-how on hand from our packaging recycling experts: you will not only learn the basic principles of the circular economy but also be shown some handy tips and methods for implementing your packaging strategy.
All part of our feature-packed workshops:
- Legal background and market situation
Changes in consumer expectations and new legislation for businesses: we bring you up-to-date on market trends and legal frameworks, including the German Packaging Act and the minimum standard set by the Central Agency Packaging Register. - Packaging recycling – behind the scenes
Disposal, sorting and recycling: we take you on a tour through all the stages of your packaging’s ‘afterlife’ and give you a thorough grounding in the technical requirements. We also visit one of our modern Interzero LWP sorting plants to see how lightweight packaging sorting is handled in the real world. - Packaging optimisation – outlook
Sustainability: Together, we assess the recyclability of your packaging and highlight potential optimisations – and always while taking your packaging’s basic functionality into account.

Questions frequently asked by our customers
- Do you address our specific packaging at your workshop?
Yes, because each form of packaging has different requirements. Corresponding to the respective material specifications, we develop specific solutions according to your individual requirements, particularly at our custom workshops. This sets the course for a successful and competitively-relevant positioning.
- We are a small company, and I manage this issue alone. Do you also offer workshops to individual participants like me?
We recommend our group workshops, which we will be offering again soon. These are attended by participants from several different companies. Feel free to contact us if this is of interest to you.
- Our company operates in a specialist market. Can you include this in your workshop?
We design sustainable solutions together with our customers. This also means that, at our custom workshops in particular, we take a targeted look at both the individual initial situation of your packaging and the respective market segment.
