Interpack: A window to the packaging world

When considering an exhibition, it is a common practice to review figures and facts. The show organizers reported a very successful Interpack 2011. Whereas 171,000 visitors came to the Interpack in 2008, the year of the financial crisis, only 166,000 guests were counted in 2011. The share of international visitors at 60% remained stable, just like the number of the exhibitors (2,700). Does that indicate a setback for an industry so accustomed to success and records?

OPTIMA GROUP: Setting an example in environment protection

An important step in making the production of filling and packaging machines as ecologically friendly as possible: Optima Group completely changes over to power from renewable resources at both sites in Schwaebisch Hall. In the beginning of December, Hans Bühler (managing director) signed a contract with the municipal utility company of Schwaebisch Hall that guarantees direct power supply from a hydropower plant. Optima Group in Schwaebisch Hall with its approximately 950 employees has a consumption of about 2.7 million kilowatt hours, which can be compared to the consumption of 600 four-person households.
