VPK Group news

VPK Packaging Belgium has taken a major step in its sustainable growth journey: a new 2.80m BHS corrugator has been successfully installed at the Erembodegem site. This investment not only represents a technological upgrade but also a clear promise to our customers: more capacity, better performance, and even stronger customer focus.

What does it take to create pet food packaging that performs in the real world?

Have you noticed that our website got a fresh new look since April? Thanks to this upgrade, VPK Group now presents a strong and consistent story. Stephanie De Smedt (Group Marketing & Communication Manager) and Nikolaas Verhelst (Product Innovation Partner) led this international project together. 

In 2024, VPK Group once again made significant strides in its growth trajectory. Through strategic acquisitions, targeted investments, and a strong focus on sustainability and innovation, the group reinforced its position as a leading player in circular packaging solutions. In recognition of its family values and long-term vision, VPK Group was named ambassador of the Family Business Award of Excellence 2024.

At VPK Group, we are constantly working on optimising our production to support our customers even better. In 2025, two major investments are planned for our Belgian corrugated board plants. These projects increase our capacity and efficiency so that we can respond to our customers' needs faster and more flexibly.

In an exciting milestone for our sustainability journey, VPK Group officially launched its Product Carbon Footprint Calculator on 12th December during an exclusive customer event at our headquarters in Belgium. This innovative tool underlines our commitment to transparency and collaboration, equipping our customers with the insights they need to make climate responsible packaging decisions.

We are proud to announce that in the last 2 months VPK Group received three new EcoVadis Platinum certificates for our sites in Romania, Belgium and Poland. This extends our previous Platinum certification for France. This top performance highlights the daily commitment of our teams to embed sustainability in every aspect of our business.

VPK Group delivered solid performance in 2023. Thanks to our integrated business model, diverse product portfolio and strong customer base, we adapted agilely to market dynamics and strategically invested in projects to support future growth.
