Quadpack Wood in Spain now has a biomass plant that is leading the factory to carbon neutrality, an investment amounting to €2.5 million. Due to this investment, the factory has already achieved a reduction of approximately 400 tons of CO2 emissions a year.
In addition, €360,000 is being invested throughout 2021 on what the company terms "industry 4.0," a multi-year project that will include more factories and system implementations.
A €2 million investment is earmarked this year for high-speed production and decoration at Louvrette, Quadpack’s German-based manufacturing plant. The factory is also investing in new airless molds, aiming to increase its airless capacity to 20 million packs per year.
Quadpack COO Fabrice Revert said: “Our investment in smart manufacturing will help our operations become more agile and more sustainable. We aim to ensure our processes have a positive impact on the environment, while delivering value to our customers, in a process of continual improvement.”
