This year, RDM Group proudly joined the ECMA Awards as sponsor of the Pro Carton Young Designers Award, a pioneering initiative that promotes sustainable packaging and innovation among students.
Pierre-Yves Corbiere, Chief Commercial Officer at RDM Group, personally presented the awards to the winners, stating: “This initiative has given us the opportunity to support the next generation of talents shaping the future of European packaging, while reflecting RDM Group’s commitment to sustainability, innovation, education, and social responsibility.”
At RDM Group, we believe in investing in future talent and building strong connections between industry and academia. Partnering with Pro Carton allows us to celebrate creativity while emphasizing the role of cartonboard in a more sustainable future. The award offers a valuable platform to engage with young designers, learn from their vision, and support the next wave of packaging innovators.
Their projects prove that sustainability is no longer just an aspiration but the foundation of our industry – and that circular thinking and creativity go hand in hand.
