Rethinking Coffee Packaging

Can coffee packaging be both high-quality and contribute to the circular economy? Constantia Flexibles have partnered with Migros Industrie to further develop their EcoVerHighPlus, a high-barrier mono polypropylene (PP) laminate designed for recycling. After rigorous testing and optimisation, this solution preserved coffee’s freshness and quality while remaining compatible with existing packaging machines. By January 2024, long-run production tests confirmed seamless performance. And by mid-December 2024, the new Café Royal softbags were successfully introduced to consumers.

With upcoming regulatory changes, the transition to recyclable-ready packaging is more essential than ever. The partnership between Constantia and Migros Industrie highlights the importance of proactive innovation in meeting these evolving demands. At Constantia Flexibles, they are committed to delivering packaging solutions that align with industry needs and environmental responsibility.
