Packmatic

We’re beyond excited to announce that we’ve raised €15 million in Series A funding! 🚀   This investment was led by top European venture capital firm EQT Ventures ⚡️ and complemented by HV Capital (who doubled down after leading our seed round 🙌) and xdeck. It will help us supercharge our growth, build out our team and software solutions to help our customers source and manage their packaging more efficiently and sustainably. 📦🍃   Alongside our institutional investors, we are very lucky to receive continued support from our angels Robert Gentz, David Schneider, Rubin Ritter, Christian Hülsewig, Paul Crusius, Robert Maier, Martin Rost, Christian Vollmann, Lukas Brosseder, David Khalil, Johannes Schaback, Oliver Roskopf & Christian Weiss. 🤝   Thank you for your trust, Rania Belkahia, Marnix van der Ploeg, David Stefan Fischer, Jenny Dreier, Katharina Aumueller, Dr. Markus Gick, Dr. Dennis Zeiler and to the entire Packmatic team for your continued hard work from Matthias Geiss, Jonas Boland, Paul Schraven, Tobias Linnardi and Fabian Fülling — we can’t wait to propel Packmatic to the next level together. 💪

Ich lieb's, wenn jemand so richtig mit dem Unternehmen mitwächst. Helen war bei uns als Werkstudentin Mitarbeiterin #1 und rockt jetzt als Verpackungsingenieurin voll durch! Ich freu mich sehr, dass sie vor Kurzem ihre Masterarbeit abgeschlossen hat und bei Tobias im Verpackungsteam 100% eingestiegen ist. Helen entwickelte an der FH Campus Wien | University of Applied Sciences eine streamline Methodik zur schnellen Bewertung der Recyclingfähigkeit von Verpackungen. Hierfür wurden immer drei Komponenten einer Verpackung analysiert: Verpackungskörper, Verpackungsdesign und der Verpackungsverschluss. ♻ Inspiriert wurde sie durch die neue EU-Verordnung Packaging & Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR). Mithilfe von Daten und Fallstudien von Packmatic konnte ihre Forschung wertvolle Erkenntnisse liefern, um unsere Kunden noch gezielter auf die Veränderungen im Verpackungsmarkt vorzubereiten. Auch wenn eine vereinfachte Analyse eine vollständige Bewertung zur Recyclingfähigkeit noch nicht ganz ersetzen kann, sind ihre Ergebnisse von großer Bedeutung - sie bilden eine wertvolle Grundlage für die Entwicklung unseres neuen digitalen Tools, das bald auf den Markt kommt (stay tuned!). 🚀 Herzlichen Glückwunsch, liebe Helen – dein Engagement stärkt nicht nur die Mission von Packmatic, sondern bringt uns auch einen Schritt näher an eine Zukunft, in der nachhaltige Verpackungen der Standard und nicht die Ausnahme sind. #Sustainability #PackagingRecyclability #PPWR

For many companies — especially SMEs — navigating the packaging market can be overwhelming. The industry is vast and fragmented, with countless suppliers and new solutions constantly emerging. Yet, many businesses stick with their existing suppliers simply because finding and evaluating alternatives feels too complex and time-consuming. This often means missing out on better, more affordable, or more sustainable options. Here are some of the most common challenges companies face: 📈 𝐇𝐢𝐠𝐡 𝐂𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐬: Many companies pay more than necessary because they aren’t aware of alternative, cost-effective suppliers. 🗺️ 𝐅𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭: With thousands of suppliers, it’s difficult to know where to start or who might be the best fit. ⏳ 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞-𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡: Identifying, evaluating, and qualifying suppliers can take significant time, especially for SMEs with limited resources. 🌱 𝐒𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐇𝐮𝐫𝐝𝐥𝐞𝐬: Finding suppliers that prioritize sustainable materials and practices can be a challenging in such a crowded market. 💡 𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Sticking with the same suppliers can limit exposure to new, innovative packaging solutions. The packaging landscape is constantly evolving and staying informed about new and improved solutions is crucial. By addressing these challenges, businesses can not only find the ideal packaging fit but also stay competitive in a dynamic market. Still struggling to identify the ideal supplier for your customized packaging? Let's have a chat! #Packaging #IndustryChallenges

The AGEC law (anti-waste for a circular economy) in France has noble intentions, but is very difficult for companies to apply. Especially for fresh fruit and vegetable producers who, for example, are now prohibited from using plastic bags for products weighing less than 1.5 kg. 🍎🚫🛍️ We see our customers in France struggle with the new regulations and waiting for clarification before making strategic decisions about their packaging.
