ITALY – Yangi, a sustainable packaging solutions provider, has forged a strategic partnership with GDM, an industrial market solution company, to enhance the deployment of Cellera, its cellulose dry fiber forming technology platform, at its production facility in Varberg, Sweden.

Positioning itself as a comprehensive packaging solutions provider, Yangi offers its Cellera machine platform alongside tailored service packages, including consulting services for packaging design and material on subscription basis.

As part of Coesia, a conglomerate of innovation-driven industrial and packaging solutions companies headquartered in Bologna, Italy, GDM boasts a global presence, facilitating rapid scaling and valuable networking opportunities.

Hanna Rüdel, Chief Commercial Officer of Yangi, emphasizes the critical role of GDM’s expertise in ensuring the successful integration and widespread adoption of Yangi’s fibre-based technology. This collaboration, she believes, will catalyze a revolutionary shift in the industry.

Luca Aiolfi, Chief Executive Officer of GDM, underscores the companies’ shared commitment to delivering avant-garde solutions, from redesigning production processes to handling greener raw materials.

Joining forces with Yangi, he asserts, is a natural step forward, promising positive impacts on both technological advancement and environmental sustainability in the packaging industry.

For Yangi, this partnership signifies a significant stride toward advancing sustainable packaging solutions.

By leveraging their complementary strengths, the two companies aspire to leave a lasting imprint on the global landscape, offering scalable and innovative solutions for a more sustainable future.

Looking back to 2022, Yangi’s collaboration with Holmen Iggesund marked a pivotal moment in the quest for sustainable packaging.

The long-term agreement aimed to produce biobased and renewable materials for the beauty and cosmetics industry, with the goal of replacing rigid plastics in packaging.

Under the oversight of FutureLab & Partners, this initiative seeks to foster collaborative development projects with cosmetics and beauty brands, facilitating the transition to renewable materials.

Holmen Iggesund’s supply of fibre-based materials, coupled with Yangi’s dry forming technology and R&D resources, promises to drive the development of current and future packaging solutions for producers and brands.

This shift away from fossil-based materials is poised to reduce the climate impact of the industry’s packaging production, benefiting both brands and consumers alike.

Through strategic partnerships and innovative technologies, Yangi and its collaborators are charting a course toward a more sustainable and environmentally conscious future for the packaging industry.
