Geopolitical developments and volatile commodity markets

Dear Customers and Business Partners!

Regarding the current geopolitical developments in the Middle East, we are closely monitoring the situation and its potential impact on international commodity and supply markets. Based on current knowledge, the supply situation for the products we deliver to you remains stable. Currently, we have no specific indications of short-term supply bottlenecks.

However, as our products are polymer-based, we are highly dependent on developments in global raw material markets. These markets are currently characterized by increased volatility, leading to fluctuations in energy prices and changes in supply chains. In this context, some of our raw material suppliers have already announced or indicated price adjustments. Therefore, we cannot rule out the possibility that this may also lead to adjustments in our sales prices in individual cases. Corresponding developments can currently only be predicted to a limited extent.

Due to the uncertainty surrounding this matter, we are currently compelled to offer price commitments with longer validity periods only to a limited extent or subject to reservations. Naturally, we continue to do everything we can to keep any potential impact on our customers and business partners as low as possible and to avoid or at least minimize price adjustments as much as market conditions allow.

We will continue to closely monitor market developments and inform you in a timely manner of any relevant changes. We thank you very much for your understanding of the current conditions and hope for a swift stabilization of the commodity markets together. If you have any questions on this topic, please contact your account manager.

Packaging - As much as necessary,
as little as possible

BVS uses the NaturePak label for products that enable ecologically sound use, reduce CO2 emissions and generate less waste, regardless of the packaging material used.

Our strategy

  • Less packaging means less waste
  • Better protection through high quality
  • Packaging materials made from recycled raw materials or equivalent proportions
  • Economical packaging systems reduce material and energy consumption
  • Ecological customer solutions regardless of material
  • Objective information about different packaging materials

Packaging made from recycled paper

Paper pays off for people and the environment in the long term. It is even better to use paper with a high recycled content. Recycled paper optimizes water and energy consumption and thus protects the environment and climate by reducing waste. Recycled paper offers a wide range of added value for all users.

  • Protects the environment and reduces CO2 emissions
  • Saves energy and water
  • Less waste through optimal recycling

Plastic packaging with recycled content

Polyethylene films are increasingly being produced with a proportion of recycled material, which - as far as technically possible - is being continuously increased. They are the most modern and safest quality packaging for all branches of industry. Due to their low density and excellent physical and mechanical properties, PE films have major advantages over paper, cardboard, metal and glass.

  • Protects the environment and reduces CO2 emissions
  • Can be recycled again and again
  • Is a lightweight material with a high protective effect
  • Significantly reduces food waste when used in the food industry
  • Generates much less waste than glass, metal or paper
