Schumacher Packaging Group, one of Europe’s largest manufacturers of corrugated and solid board packaging solutions, is expanding its corrugated board plant in Greven/Germany, in the immediate vicinity of Münster-Osnabrück Airport, into a next-generation “multi-mega plant”. The packaging specialist is thus reacting quickly to the current strong increase in demand for corrugated board packaging, which is driven not least by the booming e-commerce sector.

In addition to an expansion of the production area by more than 20,000 m2, two corrugated board plants from BHS Corrugated with a total production capacity of 600 m m2 of corrugated board per year will complete the expansion as early as 2022. This will make Greven one of the world’s largest “multi-mega plants”, replacing the Ebersdorf headquarters with 350 m m2 per year as the largest corrugated board plant to date.
