Bericap wins award for innovation

Bericap, global manufacturer of plastic and aluminium closures, has received the TOP 100 award as one of the most innovative small and medium-sized enterprises in Germany.
The award underlines the company’s pioneering role in the closure technology segment. It impressed the panel of judges with its sustainable new products, innovative solutions in response to the Covid-19 pandemic and targeted innovation management. The company is the only food, beverage and industrial packaging/closure manufacturer to be a TOP 100 winner in 2022.
Project coordinator professor Nikolaus Franke of the Vienna University of Economics and Business, and his team, rated Bericap positively in the categories of ‘Innovation-friendly Senior Management’ and ‘Innovative Processes/Organisation’. “We are delighted to have received the TOP 100 award because it both affirms and recognises the valuable contributions made by the entire Bericap team. To sustain our position as a pioneer in safe as well as user and climate-friendly closures we assign the very best experts to our product development teams – and when necessary, we involve external specialists to assist with the products’ technical design and market launch,” said Christian Krautkrämer, managing director at Bericap.
On the business side, the company has been busy developing new markets and broadening its product portfolio with the acquisition of MALA GmbH, an aluminium closure specialist. In addition to aluminium closures for the wine sector with diverse finishing and décor options, it now offers aluminium alternatives to its established range of plastic closures for edible oil, vinegar and mineral water.
