Approx. <strong>6 million euros annually<\/strong> invested in employee training.

As a family business, Panther thus opens up future opportunities for all employee families. At the same time, there are numerous measures in place to make apprenticeships at Panther attractive and to inspire young people. The training mobile, a Panther Mini vintage car, is available at the plants for many trainee activities.<\/p>\n<h2>Future expectations of the company<\/h2>\n<p>According to the company, the greatest risks for the coming years lie in the <strong>German energy policy<\/strong> compared to other countries, as there is a large <strong>Competitive disadvantage<\/strong> for German companies and the ever-increasing bureaucracy in all areas.<\/p>\n<p>The greatest opportunities for the Panther Group, however, continue to lie in its products themselves, as all types of corrugated board products are environmentally friendly, sustainable and recyclable and, in the course of the substitution of plastics, can be used for other purposes. <strong>Corrugated board products<\/strong> will certainly be in even greater demand in the future.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: Panther Packaging<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Panther Packaging Group, founded in 1902, is launching a new investment programme with a volume of over 60 million euros.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":26504,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"__cvm_playback_settings":[],"__cvm_video_id":"","rank_math_description":"","rank_math_focus_keyword":"","rank_math_title":"","csco_display_header_overlay":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[114],"tags":[43,57572],"class_list":{"0":"post-26503","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-aus-den-unternehmen-news","8":"tag-aus-den-unternehmen","9":"tag-panther-packaging","10":"cs-entry","11":"cs-video-wrap"},"acf":[],"vimeo_video":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26503","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26503"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26503\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26504"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26503"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26503"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26503"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
