We ’ re embracing sustainability in a couple of key ways
the point where customers receive prototypes within three-to-four weeks , as opposed to traditional wait times of six-to-12 months . In fact , many of our customers are shocked at how quickly we can design , prototype , and test products all under one organization .
“ We ’ re also partnering with some of the world ’ s largest producers of paperboard and collaborating with industry experts to find sustainable alternatives for coatings that enable paper-based packaging to behave like plastic , yet still be recyclable or compostable .”
As our conversation draws to a close , talk turns to the future . “ I think the market is still trying to figure out where it ’ s going to a certain extent , particularly around material considerations with legacy materials like plastics versus more sustainable options such as fiber-based materials ,” Koben proposes .
“ There ’ s no perfect solution right now , so we ’ ll continue to do what we ’ ve always done best – provide a full breadth of solutions for various materials and products out there in the packaging industry that meet our customers ’ goals in terms of both financial and sustainability goals .
“ Further afield , my focus is to build a company that will be around for the next 50 years ,” he concludes . “ The key is continuous investment in research and development , innovation , and our engineering teams . My overall goal is to see us grow and prosper as a machine builder and tool designer that manufactures product efficiently , sustainability , and to a superior standard .” ■
