This week we’re focusing on things we need in our lives. With this self-reflection, we gain insight into what stocks we need in our portfolio.

   SIG Group AG provides aseptic carton packaging systems and solutions for beverage and liquid food products. The company provides aseptic carton filling lines, aseptic carton sleeves and closures, bag-in-box, and spouted pouch, as well as spare parts, maintenance, digital, add-on, training, and other services. It primarily operates in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, the Asia Pacific, and the Americas.
   
   Oh, so they sell packaging to the world. And apparently digital products? Probably an app that lets you subscribe to buying packaging.
