De Jong Verpakking by Stora Enso:

In a world of packaging and sustainability, two leading forces come together: Stora Enso and De Jong Verpakking. Stora Enso, a global player in the bioeconomy and a market leader in renewable products across various sectors, acquired De Jong Verpakking at the beginning of 2023. Stora Enso, which is also one of the largest private forest owners in the world, embraces the belief that what is currently made from fossil materials can be realized tomorrow with the help of trees.

De Jong Verpakking seamlessly aligns with this vision of sustainability and progress. Within the Packaging Solutions division, De Jong Verpakking has built a reputation as a specialist in corrugated cardboard packaging for various sectors, including Fresh Produce, Industry, Horticulture, and Egg & Export. With over 700 employees and well-equipped production facilities, including a new high-tech production site, De Jong Verpakking is the largest and most advanced manufacturing site in Europe.

The range of products offered by De Jong Verpakking is diverse and includes display boxes, American folding boxes, and cardboard trays. These boxes and trays are delivered flat or assembled to both resellers and end customers in the Benelux, Germany, and the United Kingdom. Additionally, De Jong Verpakking provides storage space and erecting machines with accompanying maintenance.

With Stora Enso's leading position in renewable products and sustainability, and with De Jong Verpakking now being part of their team, they join forces to shape the future of packaging together.
