Episode 06: Ansgar Schonlau / Maag – Lean Management as a Sustainability Strategy
In the sixth episode of **PACKOLUTION**, we welcome **Ansgar Schonlau**, Managing Director of **Maag GmbH**. The company produces flexible packaging and has consistently repositioned itself in recent years to place sustainability more firmly at the center of its corporate strategy.
In this conversation, Ansgar Schonlau explains how the introduction of a comprehensive **lean management strategy** has helped to optimize processes and make them more sustainable. It becomes clear that true sustainability can only be achieved when the entire value chain works together and ecological, economic, and social aspects are equally considered.
We also discuss the role of plastics in a sustainable packaging world. In Maag’s view, “good plastic”—when used correctly and integrated into functioning cycles—can be an important part of the solution.
Look forward to exciting insights into modern corporate strategies, efficient processes, and the question of how sustainability can be implemented along the entire packaging value chain.
