A perfect match: Paper. Forming. Technology

We drew on our decades of experience with innovative technology to match your efficient production processes with sustainability aspects. The result: our TPU forming, filling and sealing machine for paper applications. The paper-based packaging reduces the amount of plastic waste and improves your ecological footprint, while optimized barrier layers protect the product without compromising on recyclability.
Our flagship machine for paper forming was even selected for the German Packaging Award in 2020. In the eyes of the jury, the TPU paves the way for new, sustainable packaging solutions that reflect the trend towards replacing petrochemical plastics and towards individualization.

Frequently asked questions

In three steps, we support you in launching your new, paper-based packaging solution:

Proof of concept:

We assess various parameters specific to your product and brand, such as barrier properties, desired brand experience, market feedback and technical feasibility. Based on the results, we develop packaging designs and mock-ups to get a first impression of the look and feel.

Pilot run:

We create prototypes for your marketing analysis and packaging validation – together, we make sure you find the right material and shape for your product. You can also include your corporate design in this step, so that the prototypes are as similar to the final product as possible.

Production:

We convert the results of our proof of concept phase into upscaled production equipment for industrialized packaging solutions. From the initial idea to the successful product launch, we support you throughout the entire process and with any questions beyond.

Our technology is suitable for filling and packaging a wide range of products in formed paper pods or blisters, no matter whether they are non-food products, cosmetics, dry or viscous foods. Here are some examples of what we can fill into paper pods:
