Mission

„If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses.“

(Henry Ford).

I believe one can only develop better solutions if one understands the needs of one’s customers – what they truly need, not only what they want. My eyes are always on the future and I’m known to be a collector of ideas. One of my greatest strengths is developing innovative ideas and concepts, thanks to my extensive work experience and keen observations. Creating user-friendly and visually-appealing medical device and pharmaceutical packaging systems is my passion. I provide my clients with support from the early stages of conceptual packaging development right up to design transfer and verification of the complete packaging system. Further, I provide packaging engineering services with regard to lifecycle management, packaging process validation activities and regulatory affairs.
