Innventia welcomes the new Partner Customer Brødrene Hartmann A/S

Moulded fibre packaging company Brødrene Hartmann A/S has decided to extend its operations in the Innventia Cluster Research Programme for 2010 and 2011 by signing a Partner Customer agreement. The company has participated as a so-called Invitee in the Wood-derived Renewables cluster and the forerunning New Fibres New Materials cluster for many years.

– We are very happy to welcome Brødrene Hartmann as a Partner customer. This agreement is yet another example of the Cluster Research Programme attracting companies in new categories outside the traditional pulp and paper industry. Brødrene Hartmann, a packaging company offering products based on renewable raw materials, will make a valuable contribution to the Programme, says Anders Pettersson, Senior Vice President Research at Innventia.

– We are looking forward to our extended cooperation and expect to gain a lot value from it, says Tomas Schou Winther, Director, R&D and Sustainability at Brødrene Hartmann A/S.

With this Partner agreement, Brødrene Hartmann is now one of 21 companies participating in the long-term research work at Innventia called the Cluster Research Programme 2009-2011. The volume of this programme is approx. SEK 100 million per year and each company has signed a 3-year contract (minimum). Sharing the investment costs in R&D, the participating companies reduce their risks and benefit many times over from the investment.
