Alpha® awarded at the 2025 Paris Vending Show: sustainability and innovation take center stage

An intense and rewarding week for FLO Group at the 2025 Paris Vending Show, one of the most important European events in the vending sector. The undisputed star was Alpha®, the vending cup made of carton laminated with Qwarzo®, which won first prize at the Vending Show Trophy in the category “Other products, materials, or associated services.”

This recognition confirms the value of a solution designed to combine environmental sustainability, high technical performance, and maximum ease of use.

Alpha® represents a significant evolution in vending packaging, thanks to a technology that provides an effective barrier without compromising the recyclability of the material, thus meeting the increasingly stringent sustainability demands of consumers and European regulations.

During the event, FLO Group had the opportunity to showcase its innovations in sustainable packaging, strengthening its role as a leader in producing eco-friendly solutions for the food service and vending sectors. The award received in Paris highlights the company’s commitment to offering products that not only respect the environment but also enhance the end-user experience through functional design and high-quality materials.

A special thanks goes to NAVSA, the event organizer, and to all the professionals and industry operators who visited the FLO booth, showing great interest in the innovative technologies presented. A particular commendation also goes to the FLO Group team for the enthusiasm and expertise with which they represented the Alpha® project.

With this award and the new collaborations formed during the Vending Show, FLO Group is ready to continue its path of sustainable innovation, aiming to develop increasingly effective and environmentally friendly solutions for the vending sector and beyond.
