Mondi, a global leader in sustainable packaging and paper, and home of innovation for a variety of industry partners, recently received two ScanStar awards and two Obal Roku awards recognising its expertise in automotive, e-commerce and FMCG packaging solutions. 

Mondi Ansbach (Germany) developed the double ScanStar award-winning transportation packaging solutions for Volvo. The team works closely with its automotive industry customers to create value-added corrugated solutions that protect heavy-duty goods such as brake boosters and headlamps, while improving processes and logistics. The ScanStar jury especially highlighted these factors:

  • cost-effectiveness
  • sustainability
  • stability
  • improvement in work ergonomics

At this year’s Obul Roka awards, Mondi Bupak (Czech Republic) won in the Technology & Process category with its special edition sparkling wine box for Bohemia Sekt, which stood out thanks to the imaginative design and high printability capabilities of the Bupak plant. Mondi’s EnvelopeMailer won the E-commerce category, giving customers a fully recyclable alternative to polyethylene bags and polyethylene-coated products when shipping e-commerce goods.

“We believe in packaging that is sustainable by design. Our designers have an innovation mind-set that sets standards in the packaging market. I am proud of the recognition our innovative products and commitment to service and quality is receiving”, says Armand Schoonbrood, COO Corrugated Solutions at Mondi.

All four awards qualify for the international WorldStar awards run by the World Packaging Organisation (WPO). Closing date for entries is in October, the results will be announced December 15.
