Manufacturer of environmentally responsible VCI anticorrosion packaging: EcoCortec® Shares Insights at CCE Internationalization Conference

EcoCortec’s General Manager, Dijana Zrinski, recently gave a speech at the prestigious CCE Internationalization conference held at Zagreb’s Hilton Garden Inn hotel. EcoCortec®, a corrosion protection packaging producer located in Croatia, is a European subsidiary of Cortec Corporation, a global VCI/VpCI inhibitors manufacturer.

The conference gathered Croatia’s biggest exporting companies, sharing experiences with domestic and international experts from the economy, technology, and politics. The goal was also to discuss current business trends in a global environment, management challenges, risk management, and logistics processes. Particular focus was on financial support for internationalization.

Zrinski attended the conference alongside a distinguished group of Croatian export companies and international experts from diverse fields. As a panelist in the panel entitled "Export Without Borders: Financing Strategies, Risk Management, and Logistics Challenges,” she shared EcoCortec's successful export strategy. The company's impressive track record, with 95% of its products reaching markets across three continents, positions it as a leading Croatian exporter. Zrinski elaborated on the company's commitment to efficiency and sustainability, discussing its advanced logistics operations and innovative circular production model. She also provided valuable insights into the financial strategies that fueled EcoCortec's growth, particularly in light of recent investments.

The audience was interested in learning more about the specific challenges EcoCortec® has faced in its international journey and its proactive approach to supply chain risk management. Dijana shared experiences of navigating through economic downturns, global crises like the COVID-19 pandemic, and inflationary pressures. She highlighted the resilience and adaptability of the company's team in overcoming these challenges and turbulent market periods. EcoCortec's participation in big international projects was also highlighted, along with the advantages gained from such partnerships.

The conference was co-sponsored by the Swedish Embassy in Zagreb, and Swedish Ambassador Anna Boda was very pleased to hear that EcoCortec® is one of the biggest export companies to Sweden, while a EcoCortec's Swedish distributor is one of the biggest buyers from Croatian plant.
