CONSUMER GOODS The demands placed on packaging are higher than ever: Packaging should optimally protect the contents with a reliable barrier, while being as recyclable as possible and – best of all – be made from recyclates. Since consumers make their in-store purchasing decisions within milliseconds, packaging must also be visually appealing. Reconciling all of these requirements and realizing them economically is one of the greatest challenges facing the modern packaging industry. Reifenhäuser lines support you in successfully manufacturing for the consumer segment. They deliver consistent...

Today, even food packaging increasingly must be made from recycled material such as PET bottle flakes. Reifenhauser technology that ensures processing of up to 100 % PET allows you to calmly master this market development. A properly functioning circular economy requires packaging to be fully recyclable - a property that is impossible to fulfill with multilayer composites made from different raw materials. Packaging manufactured from monomaterials is a good alternative: They are fully recyclable, yet highly functional. Like these ALL-PE Pouches, in which BOPET or BOPP can be replaced with PE...
