“Eviosys – European leader
in metal packaging”
Eviosys strives toward continual improvement
“Eviosys is a signatory of the United Nations Global Compact and we have brought our target of reducing CO2 emissions forward by 3 years. We are now aiming at having zero waste incinerated or in landfills by 2025. We are heading towards being carbon neutral by 2050 and we have already achieved our aim to reduce VOCs, which was originally set for 2027”
Entrepreneurial culture at Eviosys
Every employee’s contribution is valued and we make sure everyone’s voice is heard
What is the innovation philosophy at Eviosys?
“Promote, protect and preserve. Our innovations need to meet these three criteria, for which eco design is the main principal as each new design must protect and preserve not just the products, but also the planet and people.”
“We constantly strive to reduce the use of raw materials – Eviosys produces 3-part boxes in steel using Peelfit™ thermosealing technology. Aluminium lids are sealed directly onto the body of the welded box to reduce the quantity of steel used. We work with out customers to reduce the thickness of our products without degrading their functioning.
Finally, we are proud to make inclusion a key aspect of our innovation. For example, we have invented the Orbit™ system, which makes it possible to reduce the effort required to open lids on glass jars by 50%.”
Metal is recycled endlessly
“The rate of recycling for steel packaging in France is 100% (source: CITEO).
Metal is easy to sort and 100% recycled for an infinite number of times at sorting centres. The metal in our packaging can also be upcycled as steel for wind turbines or trains, and can therefore fulfil the needs of future generations. “
We are innovating in terms of formats, functions, decoration and services
Formats: individual portions of 85g for animal food, which provides protection, meets the growing demand for the category in e-commerce and preserves sustainably
EvioLink function: printing unique QR codes on each package, to be able to trace each individual container and offer customised communication with customers
Decoration that makes a difference: the only hot stamping procedure of its kind in Europe with holographic effects for the perfumes and cosmetics sector
