Flexible Packaging
We create custom flexible packaging solutions that protect products while minimizing environmental impact. Our technical expertise ensures optimal material selection for food safety, medical applications, and industrial goods. With advanced printing capabilities, we deliver high-impact branding solutions that meet rigorous performance standards across multiple sectors.
Recyclable Films
Our SKYMONO and SKYPAPR film ranges offer fully recyclable alternatives to traditional packaging materials. Developed using cyclos-approved methodologies, these solutions maintain structural integrity while enabling kerbside recycling. We incorporate 30% post-consumer recycled content in PE films, helping clients meet regulatory requirements and sustainability targets.
Lamination
Our Nordmeccanica Combi 3000 laminator produces high-performance barrier films for demanding applications. Capable of solventless and water-based adhesive systems, this technology supports medical, pharmaceutical, and retort packaging requirements. We engineer lamination solutions that balance durability with environmental considerations.
Flexographic Printing
Our Allstein 8+1 colour flexographic presses deliver exceptional print quality with HD technology. The system ensures consistent colour reproduction and special finishes for point-of-sale packaging. Our in-house design team collaborates with clients to create visually compelling solutions that maintain print integrity across production runs.
Waste Recovery
Our closed-loop recycling facilities transform production waste into new packaging materials. This process includes reclaiming 45,000kg monthly of plastic packaging that would otherwise go to landfill. We also process customer waste streams, creating value-added applications that support circular economy principles and reduce overall environmental impact.
