On May 14 and 15, FLO Group participated as a Premium Partner at ViA-Tagen 2025 in Beimerstetten (Germany), a key event in the German vending sector.
The star of the show was Alpha, the new coffee cup made of vegetal fiber, compostable and plastic-free, in compliance with the SUP directive. Thanks to the absence of plastic, the Alpha cup is exempt from the plastic tax.
Also drawing great interest was R-Hybrid, the first and only vending cup containing post-consumer recycled raw material, ensuring a significant reduction in virgin raw material consumption and anticipating by 6 years the achievement of the packaging regulation (PPWR) target, which requires a minimum of 10% recycled content in plastic containers by 2030.
The event was an important opportunity to showcase our innovative and sustainable solutions for vending, engage with industry professionals, and share our vision of increasingly responsible and functional packaging.
We thank everyone who visited and supported us during this event.

From July, R-HYBRID SKY will be available, the new generation of vending cups designed to anticipate the standards of the PPWR regulation and reduce the environmental impact of single-use products. The product introduces a lightweight eco-design that reduces the use of virgin raw materials while maintaining performance, a monomaterial structure without fillers to support recycling processes, and the use of 20% food-grade post-consumer recycled polystyrene. Integrated into the RiVending circuit, the cup supports a real “cup-to-cup” model and remains compatible with existing vending machines without any operational modifications.
