Environmental awareness

The protection and preservation of our environment as well as a balanced use of the given resources are important to us. For almost 60 years we have been developing and producing high-quality, individual transparent packaging in square, round and oval shapes for the branded goods industry. The satisfaction of our customers is the basis for a long-term and cooperative partnership. Out of our own responsibility and in the interest of our well-known customers, we have been promoting the environmental and sustainability concept in dealing with natural resources together with our partners and foil suppliers for a long time.

This means that we deliberately avoid foils which consist of 100% so-called "virgin" granules. Therefore, our foils contain up to 100% out of recycled materials. The technical progress, as well as the close cooperation with our partners, make the production as well as the processing of the printing, die cutting, gluing and welding of these films possible.

In addition to our efforts to use foils out of post-consumer waste and from bio-based raw materials and to constantly demand the improvement and optimisation of these foils from our suppliers, we have been working in a resource-saving manner for decades! In our own production process, any foil waste is collected, sorted according to type and sold for recycling to appropriate processing companies.
Our partners then process these recyclable materials back into granulates, which in turn are delivered to the foil manufacturers and thus returned to the cycle.
