BBM • JULY - TEMMUZ 2025 41 COVER STORY • KAPAK DOSYASI Schubert is already positioning itself and is launching de- velopment partnerships with several loop system providers. However, with all these optimisation measures, product protection must always be kept in mind, which has the highest priority. If the product spoils prematurely, it does not help the environment. How do you assess global trends in the packaging indus- try? What kinds of demands stand out in markets such as Europe, the Americas, and Asia? Europe is strongly characterised by regulation and sus- tainability goals. Circularity is what counts here. In North America, the focus is on efficiency - high performance with high quality. In Asia, high-quality optics, innovation and smart packaging are in demand. However, even outside the EU, there is a noticeable increase not only in awareness but also in legislation for more sustainability and less waste. It will be interesting to see whether Europe can fulfil its pioneering role in terms of sustainability. Which markets do you foresee focusing more on in the near future as Schubert? We are strengthening our presence in North America by ex- panding our sales structure and setting up a site for the final assembly of our machines. We are also continuing to expand our activities in Asia. As our main sales market, Europe remains our innovation driver - with pilot projects for technological innovations or for testing sustainable packaging concepts. What key dynamics do you think will shape the packaging industry over the next 5 to 10 years? Awareness of environmental influences will increase even more. Efficiency will absolutely take centre stage, as it is not just about saving costs, but also about conserving resources. This goes hand in hand with the topics of regulation, digitali- sation and automation. In line with this trend, packaging will become more functional. Easier to process, more intuitive to use, optimised for recycling. Smart functions such as traceabil- ity and digital twins will be added to packaging machines. How is Schubert preparing for this transformation? Do you have any new investments or innovative solutions cur- rently in development? Yes - we make targeted investments in development, new technologies and sustainable systems. Glue-free and there- fore 100% recyclable packaging is made possible by our Dotlock technology. Autonomous systems such as our Cobot tog.519 help to increase efficiency in the packaging process. At the same time, we are digitalising our services with 4YOU- connect and expanding our sites with the latest energy-effi- cient technologies. lir şekilde genişletiyoruz. Ana satış pazarımız olan Avrupa ise, teknolojik yenilikler için pilot projeler ve sürdürülebilir ambalaj konseptlerinin test edilmesiyle inovasyon sürücümüz olmaya devam ediyor. Önümüzdeki 5 ila 10 yıl içinde ambalaj endüstrisini şekil- lendirecek başlıca dinamikler neler olacak sizce? Çevresel etkiler konusundaki farkındalık daha da artacak. Ve- rimlilik mutlak anlamda merkezde olacak; çünkü bu yalnızca ma- liyetleri düşürmekle değil, aynı zamanda kaynakları korumakla da ilgili. Bu da düzenlemeler, dijitalleşme ve otomasyon konu- larıyla paralel ilerliyor. Bu trende uygun olarak ambalaj daha iş- levsel hale gelecek. İşlenmesi kolay, kullanımı sezgisel ve geri dönüşüm için optimize edilmiş olacak. İzlenebilirlik ve dijital ikiz- ler gibi akıllı işlevler de ambalaj makinelerine entegre edilecek. Schubert bu dönüşüme nasıl hazırlanıyor? Halihazırda geliştirdiğiniz yeni yatırımlar veya yenilikçi çözümler var mı? Evet – geliştirme, yeni teknolojiler ve sürdürülebilir sistem- ler konusunda hedefe yönelik yatırımlar yapıyoruz. Tutkalsız ve dolayısıyla %100 geri dönüştürülebilir ambalajlar, Dotlock teknolojimiz sayesinde mümkün oluyor. Cobot tog.519 gibi otonom sistemler, ambalajlama sürecinde verimliliği artırmaya yardımcı oluyor. Aynı zamanda 4YOUconnect ile hizmetlerimizi dijitalleştiriyor ve tesislerimizi en son enerji verimli teknolojiler- le genişletiyoruz.
