Packaging Revolution: Transitioning to Sustainable Solutions with ePac
Before ePac
Previously, VB Kaffee relied on traditional packaging methods, utilising labels and kraft pouches. While functional, these materials posed challenges in terms of recyclability and branding consistency. Manual stamping processes added complexity to batch identification and quality control.
