Food Packaging

Produce functional, attractive packaging with reliable machinery

As flexible polymer packaging continues to gain market share from paper, metal and glass packaging types, the need for new plastic structures and added production continues to grow. Along with this growth come new challenges as food packaging industry standards are becoming increasingly more demanding. The requirement to protect the product from microbial degradation, physical damage, and chemical changes, combined with the need to offer attractive shelf appeal, presents a challenging combination to the processor.

Our experience allows us to sift through these challenges and provide the appropriate solution to our customers, based on their specific needs and objectives. We offer customers what they need to be successful – optimized line design, process development, and extrusion know-how.

Our turn-key systems provide the processing solution from resin to wound roll and our after sales support is there for any questions or issues once the line is operational.
