“We are delighted to see that our technology was awarded with the gold medal in this
internationally renowned contest.” says Marcus Stein, CEO of watttron GmbH. “The interest from the market has demonstrated that our digital sealing technology really contributes to the necessary transformation to sustainable mono materials. Both machine manufacturers and brand owners recognize the added value of this ground breaking technology. Thus, customers of Hermann Waldner GmbH from Wangen im Allgäu are already benefiting from this strategic cooperation in the dairy products sector.

The jury of international experts elected watttron to the gold medal winner, since with this revolutionary sealing system recyclable mono materials, biobased or already recycled materials can be processed safely, without loss of output or quality. This contributes significantly to a circular economy. Sustainability in combination with efficiency are critical when it comes to affordable packed products .
