Optimum management of packaging data: an innovative PLM solution

Manage and exploit packaging data with the Keendoo PLM Packaging module.

Keendoo, product data expert, presents its new Packaging module, a unique solution for optimizing packaging data management . Designed in collaboration with five major food companies, this module of the PLM suite centralizes essential information, simplifies regulatory declarations ( Citeo, PPWR ) and facilitates responses to calls for tender. It offers real time savings and efficiency for packaging professionals ( R&D, Quality, Purchasing ), allowing them to focus on strategic issues: reduce, reuse and recycle .

Packaging: a real challenge for businesses?

R&D, quality and packaging purchasing teams are faced with a major challenge : managing a growing volume of packaging data in a complex and constantly evolving regulatory environment. Calculating recyclability, preparing Citeo declarations, ensuring consumer information compliance and ensuring food safety are all time-consuming tasks, sometimes requiring several months of work.

Regulatory obligations arising from the Agec law and the upcoming implementation of the PPWR regulation (EU No. 2025/40 published on January 22), require rigorous management of packaging data . In this context, companies are actively seeking a solution to automate and simplify these procedures, in order to refocus on the optimization and eco-design of their packaging.

Keendoo launches a unique solution for packaging data management

Keendoo developed its Packaging module in collaboration with experts from the food industry, in order to offer a tool that precisely meets the needs of packaging professionals. This solution integrates a centralized repository , allowing to structure and consolidate all the necessary information relating to the company's packaging .

A comprehensive and efficient packaging data repository

The Packaging reference system brings together all types of packaging items ( primary, secondary, tertiary ) and their key characteristics:

  • Dimensions, weight, composition
  • % of recycled and recyclable material
  • Reusability and recyclability
  • Associated documents (technical sheets, plans, 3D images, certificates, etc.)

This system ensures optimal traceability , by following the evolution of packaging through their different versions.

Optimization of mandatory declarations and risk analysis

The module facilitates the consolidation of packaging data at different levels ( UVC, range ) and helps speed up recyclability calculations to be declared in Citeo 's TREE tool. It also identifies restricted substances, allowing quality teams to anticipate risks and target the necessary analyses.

It also facilitates eco-contribution declarations, QCE and responses to calls for tender.

The data is easily accessible and extractable to simplify responses to calls for tender and guarantee precise and reliable eco-contribution declarations.

What are the benefits for the company?

A considerable time saving

Early adopters of Keendoo 's Packaging module report intuitive handling and a significant improvement in data management . No more wasted time juggling Excel files, PDFs, and other disparate information sources. Teams become more efficient and can focus on innovation and packaging optimization.

Optimized control of eco-contribution

With data always up to date , eco-contribution declarations correspond exactly to the packaging items and actual volumes of the current year. This precision avoids unnecessary costs due to declarations of obsolete items, thus allowing substantial savings for the company.

With centralized data and extractions as needed, the software frees up “ administrative ” time to better focus on packaging innovation and optimization projects.❞

Packaging Manager, Sodiaal PGC

With reliable, up-to-date data, we avoid declaring packaging that is no longer used, which allows us to save on the eco-contribution.

Packaging Director, Large Agri-Food Group

We have the data available to quickly complete specifications or respond to calls for tender , whereas before it took us several days.❞

Packaging Manager, Ajinomoto

With its Packaging module, Keendoo provides a concrete response to the challenges of packaging data management . Centralization, consolidation and optimization ( Citeo, PPWR ) are at the heart of this innovation, allowing companies to gain efficiency and make significant savings on their eco-contribution.
