After a break due to corona, the district and the cities of Freudenstadt and Horb invited to the apprentice speed-dating under the motto "Show us who you are" at the Kurhaus in Freudenstadt. With 73 companies from almost all sectors and 250 prospective school leavers, the response was greater than ever.
Future apprentices as well as those interested in a dual course of study and representatives from industry, trade, crafts, the hotel industry, public authorities, service providers, banks and insurance companies were finally able to get to know each other personally again.

The FOLLB Group will be at the Empack/Packaging Innovations packaging exhibition in Den Bosch (NL) on 5 and 6 April. We will be happy to show our solutions for packaging various types of products there.

Environmental awareness and the trend towards sustainability among consumers are becoming increasingly popular, especially in the fruit and vegetable packaging segment. The same is also true for choosing the right packaging solution. The packaging must deliver what the contents promise. For fruits and vegetables, this refers to freshness, origin and naturalness. Sustainability and the regional cultivation of products have always been a “lived” reality at Kultive. Reason enough to opt for Our carton quality when selecting the ideal packaging material. This innovative tomato packaging, made of Accurate™ Top Strong, highlights all these values to a special degree: the new, visually appealing and cleverly designed solution replaces the former thermoformed tray made of plastic (PET) by 100%. This represents a reduction of over 50 tonnes (!) of plastic per year. The promise of sustainability that Kultive makes, is thus consistent with the choice of cartonboard packaging.

For our plants, a continuous supply of energy is hugely important, especially to meet the delivery obligations to our customers.

A circular water system is to be created for the paper industry, eliminating the need for groundwater abstraction. Paper mills from Eerbeek and Loenen, together with the province of Gelderland, the municipality of Brummen and the Vallei and Veluwe water board will work together on this in the near future. If the project succeeds, 3.6 million m3 of well water could be saved annually. Folding Boxboard Eerbeek is one of the founders of the Eerbeek wastewater treatment plant and will also actively participate in this project. It offers an enormous opportunity to reduce groundwater consumption very substantially and thus contributes to our sustainability goals.

Both FOLBB mills in Baiersbronn and Eerbeek have contributed their products to these popular advent calendars.

From 13 September, we started the conversion and renovation of various components at our plant in Eerbeek (NL). An investment for the future of our plant, in which we will save at least 5% in natural gas consumption immediately after completion of this project. In this carefully prepared project, we will take our surroundings into account and will try to keep inconvenience to a minimum. Through this link you can find updates on this conversion (in Dutch).

No need for plastic when partying! Today, environmentally friendly solutions for food service packaging are in great demand, not least because of the EU regulation. One of the primary Italian retailers gets the party started by switching their party plates to our Accurate™ Freeze Grease – the sustainable alternative to plastic plates, styrofoam as well as polyethylene (PE) coatings. These sustainable plates are manufactured by Ecoplast.
