Mondi officially opened a new hub in Germany — FlexStudios — for co-creating flexible packaging solutions.
FlexStudios is a new 2,300 m2 building located in Steinfeld, Germany that offers three floors of interactive, collaborative space. The experiential studios have been built so that Mondi customers can actively participate in the innovation process, benefitting first-hand from the company's extensive expertise, state-of-the-art technology, and customer-centric approach to driving sustainable change in the flexible packaging industry.
By bringing pilot lines, testing capabilities and co-creation space together under one roof, Mondi can reduce time-to-market for new packaging and paper solutions.
"This ground-breaking hub brings to life the way we work closely with customers to understand material complexities and how packaging impacts the entire product lifecycle," said Thomas Ott, CEO Flexible Packaging. "With FlexStudios, we are offering our customers a space to explore all our sustainable packaging and paper solutions."
The top floor of the building houses FlexStudios Inspire — an area for collaboration and research, to develop fit-for-purpose, sustainable packaging solutions that meet consumer expectations and goals. It includes an interactive creative zone and discovery showcase profiling Mondi's extensive portfolio.
The ground floor of the hub is home to FlexStudios Innovate, a pilot facility to develop and demonstrate Mondi's products' performance to lay the foundation for customers' future success.
With FlexStudios Advance on the first floor, customers can benefit from a state-of-the-art laboratory and testing facilities.
