What Kment does

Kment, s.r.o. is a privately held Czech limited liability company (s.r.o.) based in Sklené nad Oslavou, operating as a specialized provider of export and industrial packaging. The company designs and executes made-to-measure wooden crates, light CP boxes, wooden pallets, and bundle packaging for industrial customers exporting heavy, oversized, or corrosion-sensitive equipment. It complements its wooden packaging with VCI anticorrosive materials (BRANOfol films, BRANOrost papers, BRANOtect oils, TROPAgel desiccants) sourced under official representation of BRANOpac GmbH, and barrier packaging using ALU films (TRIpac, LAMIpac) combined with desiccants to protect against moisture, grease, and oil contamination.

The business is delivered through two integrated channels: a centralized Packaging Centre at the Sklené nad Oslavou site (1,000 m² covered halls plus 3,000 m² outdoor storage, expanded by a 2,500 m² handling area in 2022 and a multifunctional Hall 5 in 2023) and four mobile packaging teams that deploy to customer sites for on-site packing, loading, and container fixation. Beyond packaging, Kment offers project logistics including road, rail (via partnership with ČD Cargo), air, and sea freight, customs clearance, warehousing, and cargo insurance, providing one-stop coordination from packaging design through final delivery across more than 60 countries.

Kment monetizes through custom project-based pricing on a quote basis, with multi-year contracts and direct enterprise sales. Its customers are industrial manufacturers in verticals such as CNC machinery, paper technology, automotive press tools, energy equipment, aerospace components, steel structures, and motorcycles, and it holds IPPC ISPM FAO No.15 certification for international wooden packaging compliance, with supplier-level ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications. The company is family-owned with no external investors and has expanded product lines in 2025 with the launch of RE-CARTBOX sustainable recycled-material packaging.

Broad incumbents

• DS Smith: UK-listed global packaging major with a strong heavy-duty / industrial packaging division. Competes with Kment for large industrial export accounts but with far broader product lines and a multinational footprint.
• Smurfit Kappa: Irish-headquartered paper-based packaging multinational with European heavy-duty operations. Overlaps with Kment on industrial export packaging but at a far larger scale and with corrugated rather than wooden focus.
• Sonoco Products: US-based global diversified packaging manufacturer serving industrial, consumer, and protective packaging markets. Comparable on the industrial / protective packaging axis but at vastly greater scale and scope.
• Mondi: Vienna- and London-listed Central European packaging and paper group. Geographically close to Kment's Czech base, with overlapping heavy-duty and industrial packaging customers, though a much larger and more diversified player.

Others

• Cordstrap: Global cargo-securing solutions provider with which Kment already partners on railway-wagon fixation projects. Comparable as an enabling ecosystem participant in the same export-packaging value chain.
• BRANOpac GmbH: German VCI anticorrosive materials specialist that is both Kment's core technology partner and an adjacent supplier in its own right. Comparable as the underlying technology provider in Kment's VCI barrier packaging.

Direct peers

• Nefab: Swedish-founded global engineered packaging company specializing in export packaging, crating, and integrated logistics for industrial customers. Closest direct peer to Kment in product, customer base (machinery, automotive, energy), and end-to-end service model.
• Boxon: Nordic industrial packaging company offering custom packaging solutions, protective materials, and logistics services. Comparable in scale, customer type, and one-stop service delivery to Kment.
• Tri-Wall: Global heavy-duty packaging company focused on heavy-duty corrugated and wooden export packaging for industrial OEMs. Directly comparable on the wooden/crating side of Kment's offering.
• Zaremba & Sons: US-based custom crating and export packaging specialist serving industrial OEMs with wooden crates, ISPM-15 heat-treated packaging, and on-site packing services. Mirrors Kment's IPPC-certified export-crating niche.
