Business model

Creativity arises from dialogue!

We want to be “impressively different” in everything we do. This means permanently finding own, successful solutions that clearly stand out from the common. Karl Knauer KG would like to continue to develop as a competent, future-oriented service and manufacturing company for innovative packaging solutions and effective, functional advertising means. The service competence is continuously professionalized. With service, the company wants to set itself apart from the competition. The service motto for internal and external customers is lived in all areas. New packaging structures and business fields are permanently developed and future topics are handled also in communication towards the inside and outside early on. As a specialist for specialties Karl Knauer continuously surprises with exceptional solutions. Mega trends and future research are accompanied by Karl Knauer, and products are developed at the earliest possible time with creativity and imagination that impress the market developing towards the future. The thinking directed toward the medium and long-term future is stimulated and promoted through the lived distinct value system. Openness, honesty, reliability, loyalty, tolerance, respect, planability, and social dedication remain main pillars of the value system of Karl Knauer.

The business fields of the Karl Knauer KG reach from packaging and advertisement means over present packaging (each made of cardboard, corrugated cardboard, and paper, and PE/PET) up to the in-house machine construction (for the construction of own production units for innovative solutions as well as full offers of packaging including parcelling technology for the customers). Already this broad product portfolio is unique in Europe. Beyond that, the market success is also impressive - surely caused also through the excellently lived synergy effects - in the single business areas.

Next to the broad range of products we also offer an impressive full-service-offer of our packaging management concept that is increasingly setting us apart from the competition. We offer our customers full service with a permanent eye for the whole picture: from the design consulting, artwork management including software solution, PDF-X-workflows, material consulting and tests, tool construction, deep-drawing production, packing, logistics, shelf management up to the construction of parcelling machines. We also offer (awarded) solutions for product and trademark protection, Track & Trace and marketing campaigns that combine printing, web, and mobile communication technologies. Our customers receive all services, even in the IT area from us as a one-stop supplier. Supply Chain Partnership simply impressively different.
