Baiersbronn Frischfaser Karton GmbH (Folbb Group) has filed for insolvency at the Rottweil District Court. Restructuring expert Dr. Jan Markus Plathner from Brinkmann & Partner has been appointed as the provisional insolvency administrator. The business operations of the cardboard manufacturer, which employs around 220 people, are to be continued without restriction.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Baiersbronn Frischfaser Karton GmbH produces high-quality virgin fibre board at its Baiersbronn site for folding boxes, which are primarily used in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries. According to the company's own figures, it achieves an annual turnover of around 80 million euros and is one of the leading manufacturers of virgin fibre board in Europe.<\/p>\n

High energy costs and overcapacity are weighing on business<\/h2>\n

The company cites persistently high energy costs, structural overcapacity in the European cardboard industry, and the difficult market environment as reasons for the insolvency application. Despite cost-cutting measures initiated, liquidity could not be stabilised permanently.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n

Dr. Jan Markus Plathner, along with his team, will analyse the economic situation and initiate measures to stabilise the company. The wages and salaries of the approximately 220 employees are secured for the months of June, July, and August 2026 through insolvency benefit pre-financing.<\/p>\n

\u201eOur immediate focus is on stabilising business operations and supply capability. In parallel, we are creating transparency regarding the economic situation and examining restructuring options. The aim is to realise an investor solution promptly within a structured process that also secures employees\u201c jobs in the long term.\u201c<\/p>\n

Dr Jan Markus Plathner<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Business continues<\/h2>\n

The business operations will continue without restriction, according to the provisional insolvency administrator. Furthermore, discussions have already begun with customers, suppliers, and other business partners to ensure the company's ability to deliver. In parallel, a structured investor process is to be initiated.<\/p>\n
