Crown Van Gelder International, together with value chain partners Cosun/ Duynie, Fiorini and DLF Seeds are participating in the EUROSAC Grand Prix awards.
Together with DLF Seeds, we’ve developed an innovative single-layer eco bag that replaces a 3-layer corrugated box for grass seeds.
This innovative solution is a win-win for everyone in the value chain:
- The Eco bag is lighter and uses less material: Reduces transport weight and needs less resources for a smaller environmental footprint
- Made from Crown Native (sugar beet paper): Sugar beet pulp has an 80% lower carbon footprint compared to cellulose from trees
- More efficient: Saves money and minimizes environmental impact throughout the supply chain
- B2C solution: Bringing packaging with a sustainable message directly to everyday consumers
Together we contribute to a greener future! Stay tuned for more updates on the EUROSAC Grand Prix.
