Circular packaging: cardboard closes the circle

At VPK Group, we make packaging that is not only functional, but also contributes to a more sustainable world. Find out how our cardboard packaging supports your sustainability goals and plays an important role in the circular economy.

VPK and the circular economy

We make every effort to keep our raw materials and products in use for as long as possible. Therefore, we optimise their value during their useful life and recycle and regenerate materials at the end of their life cycle.  

Our basic raw material - paper - is made from collected recovered paper and cardboard. This forms the raw material for all the packaging we produce. Perfectly aligned with the circular economy. Some key facts on cardboard packaging: 

  • 100% recyclable, renewable and biodegradable  
  • One of the most recycled paper products in the world  
  • New corrugated boxes consist on average of 88% recycled paper and cardboard, thanks to efficient recycling processes.

Packaging yes, waste no

Packaging waste poses a huge challenge to a more sustainable economy. At VPK Group, we are committed to minimising the impact of our packaging.   

How we do that?  

  • Smart design: together with our customers, we look for ways to avoid inefficiencies as early as the design phase.  
  • Customisation: our packaging perfectly matches needs and minimises material use.  
  • Sustainable choices: recycled and renewable raw materials are central to our process. We enhance this commitment by implementing renewable energy sources and recycled water, ensuring a fully sustainable and environmentally responsible production process. 
  • Recycling and reuse: we help customers collect and fully recycle their packaging waste.
