OUR INSPIRATION…<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Sempack\u00ae<\/sup> was created to make a positive impact, and to bring to the market an eco-responsible & 100% recyclable packaging. Our packaging is able to stand up & down and able to protect all types of products. Therefore, its characteristics make it universal.<\/p>\n

Sempack\u00ae packaging is inspired by the design of the pastry bag. Our eco-packaging can be filled with various textures (liquid, semi-liquid, pasty, powders, dry products…).<\/p>\n

We also want to adapt to consumers’ habits while bringing them an eco-responsible lifestyle with the right packaging. Our contribution is an eco-responsible sharing; we are surrounded by water and the ecosystems are essential to our lives and to our planet. Let’s protect them![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”1913″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1655735263158{background-color: #f8f8f7 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_row_inner content_placement=”middle”][vc_column_inner width=”2\/5″][vc_single_image image=”1337″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3\/5″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

THE FOUNDER’S BIO<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Wena\u00ebl Regnier<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text]Wena\u00ebl Regnier is the founder and CEO of the Group Sempack France.<\/p>\n

After completing his academic career in logistics in Normandy, he decided to move to the South of France and Monaco, where he gained 20 years of experience in the automotive industry; having multiple high-level responsibilities (Logistics Director of a 30-plant supply chain), leading key strategic development projects (flow and sales optimization with the management of 500 people), coordinating and leading each mission to execution.<\/p>\n

In 2011, he became Managing Director of Semco S.A.M, an innovation-driven rigid packaging company in Monaco, then became its owner and CEO in 2013. He rethought the company’s strategic development from A to Z (sales, industrialization, quality and R&D), positioning it definitively as one of the driving forces of eco-responsible packaging, by offering product ranges in 100% plant-based plastic.<\/p>\n

Increasingly sensitive to the problem of the 7th continent and wishing to find sustainable solutions to respond to the pollution of our planet, he imagines “the packaging of the future”. He then created the Sempack\u00ae project for which he has been working hard since 2014, bringing together a team and partners to whom he has been able to communicate his eco-responsible impetus while driving a true CSR approach.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” content_placement=”middle” parallax=”content-moving” parallax_image=”1350″][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
