For 30 years, we have developed our expertise in the field of industrial washing and have at the same time accompanied our offer with a turnkey logistics solution to meet the requirements of our customers in terms of quality, productivity and traceability.

In 2019, we realized that a turning point in our business was taking place with the development of a circular economy at the heart of which is the reuse of primary, secondary and tertiary containers and packaging, through all industrial sectors.

We therefore opted for a new strategic direction and decided to enter the race in 2020 in order to make our industrial know-how in repair, washing, disinfection, logistics, traceability and automation available to this new economy.

The desire to provide industrial solutions for reusable packaging across territories is at the origin ofETERNITY Systems.

For a quarter of a century, ETERNITY Systems remained faithful to its ambition: to offer increasingly rigorous technological solutions and processes for washing, adapted to the development of the use of responsible packaging. Whether packaging for the food industry or for any other industry, ETERNITY Systems always has the same objective: offer reliable and secure transport, repair, washing and storage solutions that respond to changes in society and consumption habits across all territories and for all applications.
