R&D&i strategic planning at Alcion Packaging Solutions

ALCION PACKAGING SOLUTIONS’ STRATEGIC PLANNING ON R&D&i

Facing a highly competitive and globalized environment, and an increasingly strict legislation of the plastic sector, ALCION PACKAGING SOLUTIONS makes a strong commitment to the development of R&D&i with the clear target of providing added value to the company to develop and manufacture our plastic packaging.

From the study of internal capacities, market trends, customer needs, industry legislation and other actors, ALCION detects the need to introduce new technologies that facilitate the recyclability of packaging and the use of recycled materials to achieve more sustainable packaging, and thus, contribute to the circular economy.

UNE 166002

The general environment indicates that it is necessary to initiate a process of differentiation through the development of a product that improves its environmental rating while maintaining its optimal performance.

ALCION has the sectoral positioning, the technical knowledge and capabilities of the staff and the necessary economic solvency to undertake product development projects focused on this line.

Chemical barriers and development of new designs based on eco-design can combine an appropriate tandem to improve the product portfolio and increase our competitiveness.

The implementation of the UNE 166.002 Standard and the allocation of budgets to the R&D&i activities have been the first steps towards the launch of ALCION PACKAGING SOLUTIONS’ development plans in this area.

Company committed to the
environment and sustainability

With all these considerations, it is concluded that the actions to be carried out within the APS’ R&D&i Strategy will be focused on the development of new packaging that is more recycled and recyclable, thus working on sustainable innovation in our attempt to be a company that respects both, the planet and people.
