Sustainable packaging solutions provider Yangi has entered into a strategic partnership with Italian company GDM to scale up the market presence of Yangi's packaging technology, called ‘Cellera’. 

GDM is a part of the Coesia group and specialises in providing industrial market solutions for the disposable hygiene and health industry. 

As Yangi’s manufacturing partner, GDM will ensure the seamless integration of Yangi's sustainable packaging technology into different industries. 

Cellera is a patent-pending machine technology platform for cellulose dry fibre-formed packaging. It is installed at Yangi’s new 3,000m² manufacturing facility in Varberg, Sweden.  

Through the latest collaboration, Yangi is now set to commercialise its dry fibre technology. 

Yangi CCO Hanna Rüdel said: “GDM’s expertise is crucial in ensuring the successful integration and widespread adoption of Yangi's fibre-based technology.” 

GDM brings three decades of experience in designing and engineering advanced converting solutions for multiple markets.  

Being part of a larger group, GDM also has a global network that will facilitate faster scaling and networking opportunities.

Yangi CEO Johann Kaiser said: “This partnership marks a significant milestone in the journey towards scaling Yangi's groundbreaking technology, bringing forth a new era in sustainable innovation. It signifies a commitment to making sustainable solutions more accessible and impactful globally.

“With its proven track record in industrial market solutions, GDM is poised to provide the necessary capabilities and network for the large-scale implementation of Yangi's innovative technology.” 

Last year, Yangi provided its dry-forming manufacturing technology to Swedish paperboard company Holmen Iggesund for producing a 48-hour sustainable travel kit, ‘Trific’.
