The company was founded in 2009 in the financial intermediation sector, but in 2012 we decided to diversify our mission by starting the sale of tinplate bought by several international groups, Korean, Chinese, Russian and American. This was the turning point!!!

In 2013 we began the commercialisation of easy open and open top lids of different diameters for sectors such as pet foods and agri-food

In 2018 the big leap to become packaging producers by acquiring production lines of Easy-Open and Open top lids in Italy.

To meet the demands of new and increasingly important customers, Wintergloed has chosen to invest in new plants to offer the market a constantly competitive product while maintaining the high quality standards that have always been our asset.

A strong point for the success of these intentions are the entrepreneurial skills of the current top management, which with stubbornness and cunning has been able to diversify from nothing, penetrating a market dominated by large multinational groups including “Crown and Ardagh”.

The high quality standard of our products is also confirmed by the historical skills of all our employees, highly specialised technicians.

Thanks to this, Wintergloed has succeeded in establishing itself on the Dutch market as a successful example of strategic diversification, moving from “Business To Business” in financial intermediation to “Business To Consumer” in the production of tinplate cans and lids.

In the future, Wintergloed’s vision is to strengthen its market position by continuing to add value to its customers’ products. It will be essential that we continue to focus on innovation in packaging solutions.

The company’s objective will be to ensure the highest level of excellence in every process performed by our company, in line with multinational companies in the sector.

WINTERGLOED TOMORROW

The people who make up Wintergloed BV share much more than a brand and an excellent reputation. Each of us shares a common vision: to be the preferred packaging partner for brand owners all over the world.

We will achieve our vision by delivering innovation to our customers, providing a stimulating environment for our staff and creating sustainable value for our company through growth and development.

The future we are creating for Wintergloed is built around our Three T’s Core Values:

• Trust
• Teamwork
• Try to believe.

We are committed to conducting our business with the highest standards of integrity and business practice in dealing with all our stakeholders. Our Code of Conduct is a guide to conducting our business in an honest and professional manner.

Metal packaging is universally recognised for its protective qualities, versatility and environmental credentials. Metal is a permanent material, which means it can be recycled indefinitely without any loss of quality. Metal has the best recycling rates of all packaging materials in Europe, contributing to a circular economy.

Metal offers versatility, unlimited design and brand-building opportunities like no other material and is used worldwide in many market sectors. Constantly evolving manufacturing technologies are used to ensure exciting possibilities and environmental sustainability in metal packaging for the future.

ENSURING EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT OPERATIONS

We continue to succeed in process innovation by focusing closely on areas such as new market solutions, product optimisation (lightweighting and down-gauging) and operational excellence.

Our goal is always to create efficiencies, both in our own production processes and in those of our customers.

With advanced analytical software, such as FEA (Finite Element Analysis), we can model new container designs based on optimal weights, before starting production.
