    The Extra in the Ordinary

    The extra in the ordinary is what we want to discover and highlight again and again. Here we present ourselves and the quintessence which our work is based on. In addition, you get to know the closed paper cycle of Model.

    You may be thinking...

    ... Corrugated cardboard is quite ordinary, maybe even boring. We recommend a change of perspective: At Model, we strive to make something special out of something supposedly ordinary.

    We start with waste paper and use it to create beautiful packaging. This metamorphosis represents our value chain which combines economy and ecology. We have been inspired by this process for generations. We are passionate about packaging and the hidden beauty. If you look closely, you will discover grace and strength even in the seemingly most ordinary packaging.

    We look forward to inspiring you. At Model, we try to make the extra in the ordinary visible. The Extra in the Ordinary.

    "We are enthusiastic packaging manufacturers."

    Daniel Model, CEO & Chairman

    The Model Group Quintessence

    Ideals show us what we aspire to. They shape our orientation and our future. The extent to which we commit ourselves to them defines our personal integrity.

    Motivations are primal forces of the will which often remain hidden and do not come to light until actions are performed – it can therefore be very fruitful to look for them. What motivations make you act as you do?

    Rules are relationships we must recognize if we are to find proper ways of working and apply them. Learning is essential.

    Feels home at Model

    Economy

    We imagine economy as a being that can feel comfortable with its members at Model. Economy knows exactly what it is, what it wants and what it achieves, since it acts according to clear rules. It is thrifty, careful, creates value, is precise, truthful, prudent and attentive, for nothing escapes it and everything is turned into something of value. Waste has no part in it.

    Economy comes to life through its identification with the rules. This is how we create value, and value creation is our raison d‘être.

    The principle of economy also includes efficiency and effectiveness. We use resources carefully with a view to maximum impact. Our decisions obey the rules of economy and serve constantly to strengthen the company. All our activities are systematically oriented towards value creation.

    A win

    Learn

    Our salaries are not the only thing we gain from working at the company: what we learn here is more important than anything else. We want our employees to maximize the benefits they derive from their own learning, taking as much knowledge as possible home with them each day. This requires them to show an interest and a willingness to accept new ideas. Thinking is essential for this, as we query routines and look for better solutions.

    In a culture of learning, a problem is not seen as a negative thing but as a learning opportunity, since it gets people thinking. In a problem-solving culture, work is fun, because everyone thinks and acts in the same, solutions-oriented way.

    The effect of learning is to increase and expand understanding. Expanding the company is a hallmark element of our strategy, and it goes hand-in-hand with expanding our consciousness.

    1 + 1 = 3

    Cooperation

    Our company is essentially a cooperative effort, since the achievement of an individual can be transformed into a meaningful whole only with the cooperation of others. Ideally cooperation can be expressed by the formula 1 + 1 = 3. A productive conversation in which knowledge is exchanged shows this apparent miracle being put into practice. In reality the effectiveness is often less than 2, the expected arithmetical answer. The potential for improvement contains the treasure we need to access for our future.

    The key ingredient for successful cooperation is trust; but where does it come from and how can we earn it? How can we cultivate a genuine desire for the common good? What do I have to do to become the person I really am?

    When conflict arises, the formula results in a negative outcome. How does conflict arise? How can it be transformed from a danger to a benefit for the company?

    Clear requirements

    Quality

    Love of quality expresses how we value our existence and conduct; it can thus determine our perceptions, thoughts, feelings and actions. Our self-esteem enables us to work conscientiously and reliably. Pride in the job is the foundation on which we produce our best work. Zero mistakes is our ideal. We have an inner need to improve constantly.

    This fundamental attitude is supported by stable processes and clearly defined, measurable quality standards.

    When quality drops, we usually look to blame someone else. How can I move from the temporarily comfortable role of victim to the responsible role of actor? Where do we find the necessary stamina? What is the relationship between quality and quantity? What are the nature and types of arguments under which the constantly recurring attacks on quality appear, and how can they be countered?

    Scope for additions

    Individual integrity

    When our own values and ideals are evident from our behavior, our individual, essential integrity reveals itself.

    Have the values that are key for you been covered in the four preceding topics of economy, learning, cooperation and quality? Here you have scope to make your own additions.

    Which values and ideals do you want to stand for? Are you also ready to take the consequences?

    The closed paper cycle

    At Model, we can produce packaging in a closed loop: Our raw material are recycled fibres from used paper products, from which new paper is created. With this we produce corrugated board – the main material of our packaging. We deliver these to our customers and collect them back used. Thanks to the circular economy, we work together to reduce waste of energy and resources.

    Service and safety

    For our customers

    As an integrated company and thanks to our own logistics, we offer you our Model Recover service: We deliver packaging and pick up the waste paper from you at the same time. Model Group with its Europe-wide plants always has a continous raw material base. Even if waste paper is becoming scarce, you therefore have a high level of delivery security with Model.

    Circular Economy

    For the environment

    We produce a valuable product from waste paper and save CO² emissions through innovative production processes. In addition, our own logistics enable short transport routes: We deliver packaging to customer and take waste paper directly back to our factory without intermediaries.
