As is customary with every 11th-grade class, Principal and math teacher Bj\u00f6rn Gemmer conducted a packaging optimization project with his current 11th-grade class. This time, they took a close look at a product from the ESN brand, examining the dimensions of one of its popular whey products. ESN, along with the More Nutrition brand, is part of The Quality Group. The company focuses on \u201cpremium products for health, enjoyment, and performance.\u201d <\/p>\n

Leon, Piet, Hessein, and Rebecca investigated whether, in the case of the selected item, not only the product but also the packaging could impress with top-notch qualities. The focus was on reducing material usage, which could lead to lower costs and a better sustainability record due to reduced amounts of plastic packaging. Their take: There\u2019s still room for improvement. <\/p>\n

This statement was supported by detailed calculations that were attached to the letter to ESN. Although it took several weeks to receive a response, it was unusually accommodating. Employee Sina Fr\u00f6mberg expressed her sincere thanks and explained in detail that, due to various regulations and provisions, packaging that may appear \u201ctoo large\u201d can nevertheless comply with the rules and may even be necessary in its current form. She also noted that consumer acceptance is an important factor. Sina Fr\u00f6mberg explained all these aspects in detail. <\/p>\n

Packaging Technology Degree Program<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the same time, the contact person suggested that anyone with a deeper interest in the topic as a whole might want to look into the Packaging Technology and Sustainability degree program in Leipzig. \u2014 It\u2019s a complex topic, then, one that, as such, may not yet have entered the consciousness of consumers. <\/p>\n

By the way, the students were also delighted to receive a box filled to the brim with numerous ESN products, which, as expected, were very well received. Of course, we had to take a group photo as a thank-you!
\nIn any case, the class and math teacher Bj\u00f6rn Gemmer would like to say a big thank you for the nice surprise and the kind feedback on the Steinm\u00fchle\u2019s activities!<\/p>\n
