Rigorous assessment process by the Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute underscores importance of sustainable and transparent solutions

ATLANTA, Sept. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Dematic, a global leader in supply chain automation, announces the Dematic Multishuttle 2 has become the industry's first Cradle to Cradle (C2C) Certified® shuttle-based automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS). The Bronze certification from the Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute highlights how data-driven sustainability is progressing in the material handling industry.

"We are so proud of this achievement — the Dematic Multishuttle 2 has been an essential part of our customer operations over the past two decades," says Chris Steiner, Senior Vice President of Product Management. "This distinction underscores our commitment to sustainable innovation across our entire supply chain and brings with it a responsibility to seek further improvement in our production systems."

The Dematic Multishuttle 2 is a high-speed AS/RS that stores, buffers, consolidates, and sequences inventory while increasing storage density. Following its market launch in 2006, the technology played a decisive role in the implementation of Industry 4.0 in logistics and has become a mainstay of Dematic's automation portfolio.

The C2C Certification process validates the product is safe, circular, and responsibly made, meeting rigorous standards for material health, recyclability, renewable energy use, water stewardship, and social fairness. The intensive assessment required all suppliers of components for the Dematic Multishuttle 2 technology submit their processes for the same transparent evaluation.

"From an evaluation standpoint, the Dematic Multishuttle 2 project has been technically demanding and highly interesting," says Dr. Annette Winterl, the project lead for EPEA, an assessor of the Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute certification program. EPEA is a part of Drees and Sommer, a global consultancy that focuses on sustainable and ecological solutions.

Winterl adds, "With hundreds of components and a broad supplier network, it is among the most complex products we have ever evaluated. The Dematic Multishuttle 2 has shown that leading companies can drive innovation while embracing responsible material choices and transparent supply chains."

The certification level "Cradle to Cradle Certified Bronze" is specific to the Dematic Multishuttle 2 produced at the Dematic production facility in Stříbro, Czech Republic and is valid until June 2028.

Susanne Felker, the project's research engineer for Dematic adds, "The Dematic Multishuttle 2 demonstrates a very high material re-use rate — but we have identified areas of opportunity to go further. Achieving this C2C Certification marks the beginning of a continuous improvement of the technology and one which we aim to build upon."

Dematic Multishuttle® 2 Is Cradle to Cradle Certified® Bronze

BANGKOK, Jan. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The inaugural "Moyom Biotech • Aphranel Global Expert Advisory Panel • Thailand Anatomy Exchange Conference" was successfully convened in Thailand. This high-level forum gathered leading experts from multiple Asia-Pacific countries.

Through this concentrated academic dialogue, Aphranel reaffirmed to the industry a clear guiding principle: to return aesthetic medicine to its medical foundation and to safeguard the safe application of regenerative materials through meticulous anatomical science.

Dialogue Between Chinese and International Experts Explores "Regeneration"

The significance of regenerative materials extends beyond composition—it reflects a deep understanding of human anatomy. Using detailed specimens and high-definition imaging, a Chinese–Thai expert team led by Professor Luo Shengkang from Guangdong Second Provincial General Hospital conducted a layer-by-layer study of facial anatomy.

Their analysis of tissue planes, ligaments, and vasculature revealed how Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) functions as a "collagen-initiating scaffold" within specific anatomical layers.

Dr. Benrita from Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University, Thailand, provided an international perspective, revealing the application logic and evolving trends of regenerative materials across different ethnicities and aesthetic systems. The convergence of Eastern and Western viewpoints elevated the concept of "regeneration" beyond mere technique, advancing it to the construction of holistic medical aesthetics.

Pooling Global Expertise, the MagiC Concept Sets Sail

A major highlight of the conference was the launch of the MagiC Concept Global Expert Advisory Panel, an academic community in regenerative medicine founded by Aphranel and leading global scholars. Dedicated to advancing anatomy-based injection protocols, clinical solutions, and efficacy evaluation systems, the panel aims to enhance the safety, precision, and predictability of regenerative medical practice.

True regeneration is far more than simply stimulating collagen production. It is about reactivating the skin's inherent repair mechanisms through the synergy of material science and clinical technique, achieving a renewal of both tissue function and aesthetic form. As a domestically originated and researched regenerative product, Aphranel has consistently championed this philosophy.

From laboratory research to clinical validation, and from physician education to patient communication, Aphranel has remained steadfast in its original commitment of "Research for Medicine, Medicine for Aesthetics." The company is dedicated to long-term academic development and ecosystem cultivation.

The launch of the MagiC Concept Global Expert Advisory Panel marks a new phase of global collaboration for Aphranel, driving deeper research in regenerative material science, professional development, and the advancement of regenerative aesthetic medicine in China.
