Comepack

What Comepack does

Comepack GmbH is a German provider of intelligent container management and reusable logistics solutions founded in 1993 and headquartered in Hirschberg an der Bergstraße. The company operates a B2B platform-plus-services model serving industrial supply chains — primarily automotive, pharmaceutical and biotech, electrical engineering, construction, and mechanical engineering — with reusable load carriers, IoT-enabled tracking, cleaning, repair, and consulting. Comepack manages a digital pool of approximately 1.5 million containers across customer cycles, with named enterprise clients including ZF Friedrichshafen, Continental (ContiTech), Aug. Winkhaus (30-year relationship), AGCO, Stabilus, Bioiberica, MAGNA, Lear, Parker Hannifin, Vaillant, Valeo, and WILO SE.

The technical platform combines proprietary Container Management Software (BMS) with IoT Tracking & Tracing built on RFID, LoRaWAN, and GPS, integrated with SenseING sensor modules that capture temperature, humidity, position, and impact data. The LoopCounter feature enables digitized selective cleaning and quality-controlled container lifecycle management, while a proprietary MULTI PACK container series (MULTI PACK 3/5/6/7) supports volume-reduced transport and storage. Service delivery is anchored by six regional service centers across Germany (Hirschberg, Mendig, Magdeburg, Bernburg), France (Eschbach), and Poland (Rybnik), with operations linked to Spain, the UK, Serbia, and Romania. GDP and HACCP certifications (since 2018/2020 by DEKRA) and ISO 9001:2015 / ISO 14001:2015 accreditations underpin regulated-industry serviceability.

Comepack's revenue model is multi-stream: managed container services (order management, allocation, cleaning, monitoring, data analysis), rental and leasing of load carriers under Pay-per-Day and Pay-per-Loop models, sale-leaseback transactions, and Out-of-the-Box consulting workshops. Pricing is contact-based and customized to pool size and scope; no public pricing tiers are disclosed. The company sells through direct enterprise field sales with dedicated account management, supplemented by trade show participation (PUMPS & VALVES Dortmund, BVL Southwest Forum, Automotive Logistics Forum, Warsaw Industry Week, Summit of World Market Leaders) and consulting workshops as lead-generation entry points. Comepack is a privately held GmbH within the Roman Mayer Group, with no external funding rounds disclosed.
