Production techniques

Injection moulding & thermoforming

Does your product require injection moulding, or could thermoforming be an option? Together, we will find the plastic packaging material that best suits your needs.

One material. Endless possibilities.

Injection moulding

We use PE and PP granules for injection moulding. These plastic granules are heated up, melted and injected at high pressure into moulds. During that process, we can introduce IML (In Mould Labelling). Printing the packaging afterwards is also an option, of course. When the mould is opened, the packaging – which has cooled down in the meantime – is taken out. For microwave use, PP is needed, so injection moulding is recommended.

Thermoforming

For thermoforming, we use APET and PS film. We heat up the plastic film so that we can shape it between two moulds, then push it out. Dry offset printing is possible with thermoforming, either before or after.

Printing packaging

In the injection moulding process, you can opt for In Mould Labelling (IML). We inject a label into the mould with the granules. This label is printed in advance on a thin sliver of plastic made out of the same basic material. If dry offset on monoplastic packaging – or processing a previously printed plastic film – is a better option for you, we can do that too.
