Paulig’s venture arm, PINC, is investing in Glenntex, a Sweden-based startup that has developed a method to functionalize graphene to reduce the need for virgin plastic in packaging by up to 30%. Paulig is an international food and beverage company and PINC is its venture arm for investments in early-stage startups in and around the future of food.
The European Union is driving circularity efforts, with the implementation of ‘The Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation’ (PPWR), aiming to ensure that all packaging is reusable or recyclable by 2030. Innovation and packaging design is key for the industry’s ability to meet the sustainability targets for 2030 and beyond.
