Packaging as a Service (PaaS)

Maximum packaging efficiency - without investment

With Packaging as a Service (PaaS) from GREIF-VELOX, you receive a complete packaging solution from a single source - including financing, service and packaging material in a fixed monthly installment. High investment costs (CAPEX) are eliminated as you use the packaging technology without having to purchase machines or infrastructure yourself.

Avoid capex, save budgets:
No need for high initial investment

Planning security through fixed prices:
Full-service package with calculable cost structure

Reduced operating expenses:
All services and supplies are covered

Measurable efficiency and cost benefits:
Up to 40 % less material consumption, up to 75 % lower storage and logistics costs, increased OEE

What is PaaS?

Packaging as a Service (PaaS) is a comprehensive service model that goes beyond the mere provision of packaging machines. GREIF-VELOX not only supplies the machines, but also takes over the entire packaging infrastructure as a full-service partner - from the provision and maintenance of the machines to the supply of consumables and continuous process optimisation.

With PaaS, you benefit from a fully integrated packaging process - customised to your specific production requirements and without high initial investments (CAPEX). The running costs are covered by predictable monthly instalments that offer you maximum cost transparency and flexibility.

Many companies today are looking for ways to make costs more flexible, avoid investments and at the same time ensure their system availability. This is exactly where our PaaS model comes in: It converts high initial investments into predictable monthly expenses - and also relieves our customers of the burden of maintenance, spare parts and consumables. In this way, we create more scope for the essentials: their core business.

Quote: Managing Director Sebastian Pohl

From machine purchase to integrated solution

While existing Packaging-as-a-Service models are usually limited to simple packaging solutions with cardboard boxes or reusable containers, GREIF-VELOX goes one step further: the model comprises complex bagging systems for ultra-light powders - including all relevant components. Customers receive a well thought-out complete package at a fixed monthly price.

With the GREIF-VELOX PaaS model, the entire packaging process is transferred to an end-to-end model. Tasks that would otherwise be distributed among various service providers - from financing and maintenance to material procurement - are bundled and coordinated centrally.
