Stockholm-based packaging tech company, Meadow, is announcing a new partnership with global dispenser supplier Stephen Gould Corporation. 

With 80 years of experience helping brands bring packaging to market, Stephen Gould Corporation will license Meadow’s Kapsul technology and handle dispenser production for brands worldwide, strengthening Meadow’s end-to-end supply chain from can-making and co-packing to dispenser manufacturing.

This partnership comes as Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) laws are accelerating the shift toward sustainable packaging across America. 

Meadow CEO & Co-Founder Victor Ljungberg commented,

“Partnering with Stephen Gould Corporation propels Meadow’s Meadow Kapsul technology into the US market at a crucial time for American companies. As we have seen in Europe, Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) schemes are driving a shift towards sustainable packaging formats – US brands that adopt early will have the edge when EPR legislation becomes widespread and enforced.”

States including California, Colorado, Maine, Oregon, and Minnesota have adopted or are implementing EPR frameworks that make producers responsible for the environmental impact of their packaging. 

This rising regulatory momentum is driving increased demand for recyclable, circular packaging solutions – with the Meadow Kapsul packaging system offering a scalable and cost-effective solution.

Stephen Gould Senior Director, Bob Challinor said,

“Stephen Gould is honored and fortunate to be selected as Licensee of Global Dispenser Production and distribution of the Meadow Kapsul system. We’ve already seen significant interest across multiple categories, including body care, home care, and hospitality for hotels. The possibilities and global applications of this system are truly extensive. We look forward to partnering closely with Meadow and bringing this innovation to markets around the world. ”

Stephen Gould Corporation will serve as a global supplier of dispensers featuring Meadow KAPSUL technology, offering both cost-effective standard options and custom-branded solutions. 

By integrating dispenser production into Meadow’s partner network, the collaboration will help brands adopt the Meadow Kapsul efficiently, while delivering versatile packaging solutions across multiple materials, shapes, colors, and branding formats. 

Stephen Gould Corporation’s strong local presence in the U.S., alongside its international operations, will help drive the adoption of Meadow Kapsul technology in key markets.
