Vienna, Austria-based converting giant Constantia Flexibles has won two prestigious WorldStar Global Packaging Awards 2025 for its EcoPeelCover and EcoLamHighPlus in the Packaging Materials and Components category. The awards, organized by the World Packaging Organisation (WPO), are regarded as the highest benchmark in the industry. This year, over 550 entries were evaluated by 51 judges from 50 countries, with Constantia Flexibles emerging as one of the standouts.

Marc Rademacher, exec vp-Consumer Commercial, shared his thoughts on the milestone: “Winning these awards is a moment of pride for all of us at Constantia Flexibles. They are a solid proof of the hard work, creativity, and passion our teams bring to every project and our commitment to rethink packaging every day. Seeing EcoPeelCover continue to shine and EcoLamHighPlus gain global recognition inspires us to keep pushing the boundaries and continue shaping more sustainable packaging solutions for the future.”

EcoPeelCover: Thinnest lid with superior puncture resistance

EcoPeelCover stands out as the thinnest die-cut lid available, featuring ultra-thin aluminum and coextruded polypropylene (PP) layers. Despite its reduced thickness, it delivers exceptional performance in peelability, corrosion protection, and puncture resistance. Plus, it provides superior barrier protection, safeguarding dairy products from moisture and oxygen while maintaining freshness. EcoPeelCover was also recognized with the German Packaging Award 2024.

EcoLamHighPlus: Lightweight barrier for extended protection

EcoLamHighPlus is a mono-polyethylene (PE) laminate designed for recyclability without compromising performance. Combining robust oxygen and moisture barrier properties with lap-seal technology, it ensures long-term product protection while supporting the circular economy. Lightweight and certified for recyclability, EcoLamHighPlus is an ideal choice for dry food, powdered goods, coffee, and snack packaging. All EcoLam grades are certified by RecyClass, confirming their compatibility with advanced sorting and recycling technologies widely adopted at industrial levels throughout Europe.

The awards ceremony will take place May 30 in Milan, Italy, during the IPACK-IMA Show (May 27–30).
