Elevating beauty packaging through sustainable innovation
PSB Industries CEO Alexandra Chauvigné reflects on how Texen, Quadpack and new member ERZI are collectively working to fulfil the group’s ambition
I am pleased to present the first joint newsletter of Texen and Quadpack, sharing with you the latest news from the PSB Industries group. A lot has happened in the year and a half since the combination of the two brands. Our group strategy has been serving us well in a beauty market that continues to face geopolitical and economic pressures. It is keeping us resilient, placing customer service front and centre of our business, as we work with brands to ‘elevate beauty packaging’. Our policy of sustainable innovation helps us deliver eco-designed solutions regionally, as we position ourselves as leaders in specific product categories.
Key among these is dip-in solutions. We are one of the Top 5 global suppliers in this category and have invested heavily at our factories and in product innovation. Our recent acquisition of ERZI Flock-Technik Applikator consolidates our leadership. Based in Germany, ERZI is a frontrunner in flock-tip applicator technology and a natural fit in terms of culture and mindset. Our support will allow ERZI to scale up and branch out. It will keep serving its customers independently, but its knowledge will benefit the whole group.
PSB Industries companies are now in good position to combine their strength: Texen brings our customers industrial know-how to tailor-make high-end solutions. Quadpack’s portfolio offers them modular systems to build the packs they desire. ERZI gives them precision performance in liquid skincare and makeup. By extending our presence in the value chain, we are mitigating risk, reshoring supply and accelerating innovation.
As we grow, so does our responsibility. In a market that is still highly volatile, we need to stay agile and close to our customers, relentlessly working to improve our competitiveness. The PSB companies are evolving and expanding their footprint, with global operations combining manufacturing facilities across North America and Europe and partnering operations in Asia and the Americas.
But we also want to elevate beauty packaging in more than its literal sense. We want to keep leading the eco-transition of our sector. Through our people, processes and products, we are committed to making a positive impact, advancing circular solutions and supporting our partners in meeting their sustainability goals. This is not a distant ambition, but a concrete path we are shaping together – step by step, innovation by innovation.
Thank you for your continued trust and collaboration.
