Evolute®, our sustainable filtering media solution designed to accelerate the transition to plastic-free filters and address societal and environmental expectations is gaining traction in the market. Building on this growing momentum, SWM International has established a dedicated platform to support our customer’s sustainability journey. This platform focuses on developing solutions to reduce the environmental impact of filters and reduce significantly scope 3 emissions compared to cellulose acetate. By working with the platform’s team our customers will accelerate the pace to deliver alternative solutions for combustible and heat-not-burn products.
We have partnered to develop a new generation of materials that will rival the performance of current cellulose acetate in taste, deliveries, efficiency, and consumer satisfaction. Our partnership aims to secure the production capacity of these innovative materials. This strategic move will complement our existing portfolio.
We are dedicated to streamlining the product qualification process to meet deadlines. This means providing with exclusive resources, technical support, and quick access to samples. We are investing in new equipment to speed up analysis and testing to recommend faster the right products.
Led by Jorge Balthazar, the team has dedicated expertise in the areas of product management, business development, technology and industrialization, qualifications and technical service, product development, cigarette and stick design evaluation, sustainability certifications and standards, and next generation products.
