Table Of Content

Food

The food industry places the highest demands on packaging and its manufacturing processes. More and more, our customers are also focusing on sustainability, waste reduction, food safety, and ethical as well as ecological responsibility. We welcome this development — because these values have long been part of our philosophy and set us apart in the market. With our BRC certification, we have fully implemented the strict HACCP food safety standards. This responsibility is something we embrace wholeheartedly — for the benefit of our customers, consumers, and the environment.

Confectionery

Our flexible packaging for the confectionery industry is one of the specialties that has earned us worldwide recognition. Confectionery manufacturers can choose from a wide variety of options to find the perfect packaging for their specific product. From development to delivery, we support our customers with proven expertise every step of the way.

Application examples
  • Twist wrap for candies, chewy sweets, toffees, lollipops
  • Fold wrap for chewy sweets, bubble gum
  • Pillow bags for FFS (Form Fill Seal) applications
  • Dry transfer images/tattoos as inner wraps or promotional inserts, e.g. for bubble gum, ice cream, lollipops

Bread and bakery products

For bread and baked goods, film packaging such as pillow bags or fold wraps offers an ideal solution. Depending on the product, we use flexible packaging made from either mono films or film laminates — always tailored to ensure freshness, protection, and attractive presentation.

Application examples
  • Pillow bags for bread, cakes, cookies
  • Fold wraps, e.g. as outer packaging for folding cartons

Fresh produce (meat, sausage, cheese)

Whether modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) or vacuum packaging — with or without high-barrier properties or anti-fog coating — our Application Technology department provides expert advice and guidance on all these specialized solutions. Depending on customer requirements, the packaging material can be produced from a wide range of film composites, such as PP/PE/EVOH or PET/EVOH/OPA/PE.

Application examples
  • Pillow bags suitable for bread, cakes, cookies
  • Fold wraps, e.g. as outer packaging for folding cartons

Snacks

With the wide variety of snack specialties, it is essential to respond precisely to every customer’s individual requirements. Our expertise in flexible packaging ranges from the spiral-wound paper labels for stacked chips to customized film pillow bags — always designed to combine product protection, convenience, and shelf appeal.

Application examples
  • Pillow bags made of paper laminates or film for snacks, cereals, chips, crisps
  • Film wrappers for snack bars (e.g. cereal bars)
  • Spiral wound labels for stacked chips cans
  • Paper fold wraps for chocolate bars
  • Overlap-sealed pillow bags for gummies

Dry transfer pictures

Transfer images / tattoos as inner wraps or promotional inserts, e.g., for bubble gum, ice cream, and lollipops.

Food Products in General

Flexible packaging for food products naturally places special demands on production. We are fully aware of our responsibility for food safety, and our certifications reflect our commitment to the highest standards.

Application examples
  • Pillow bags: pasta, rice, frozen foods
  • Stand-up pouches: flour, oatmeal, granulated sugar
  • Three-side sealed pouches: baking powder, sugar

Beverages

Relevant for the beverage industry:
Since 2012, we have been DPG-certified (Level 2 process certification) in accordance with the certification guidelines of the DPG Deutsche Pfandsystem GmbH.

Application examples

Tea

As a sensitive wellness and health product, tea requires particularly careful packaging choices. More and more tea specialists are switching from paper to film sachets for individual tea bags in order to preserve the delicate tea aroma and extend shelf life. High-performance PP/PE laminates are ideally suited for tea bag packaging.

Application examples
  • Four-side or three-side sealed sachets: tea bag packaging made from paper/film laminates or pure film laminates
  • Flow packs: tea bag sachets made from film

Non-Food Products

Flexible packaging for non-food items such as hygiene products or household goods requires a wide range of tailored solutions. We are happy to advise you on the optimal packaging concept for your product.

Application examples
  • Flow packs: wet wipes, household sponges
  • Wax paper wraps: soap, razor blades
  • Sealed-edge pouches: laundry whitener
