Who we work for
What we make

Mono-material EcoPAK
Recyclable mono PE and mono PP, implemented for minced meat, kabanos, animal treats and sweets, among others.
Zoned laminate with paper
A paper look with barrier film underneath: a window and a laser easy-open notch, e.g. for kabanos.

Films and laminates for flow pack line
Flow pack packaging is a variety of ExtraPAK film and laminate constructions on which flexo printing is possible. We also offer zoned laminates with paper, which give a kraft effect while keeping the packaging fully sealed.
Application
ExtraPAK is ideal for packaging the following products:
- Meat packaging
- Seafood packaging
- Fish packaging
- Packaging of cheese
- Confectionery packaging
EcoPAK: mono-material, recyclable films
PAK’s customers are increasingly choosing mono-material structures for the packaging of their products. To date, we have launched mono-material flow packs for minced meat, animal treats and kabanos, among others. This type of packaging is 100% recyclable.

Flexographic printing: wide-web presses
PAK’s machinery park is equipped with two state-of-the-art wide-web printing presses. We print up to 10 colours, in a maximum width of 1200 mm. We can register double-sided printing with an accuracy of 0.2 mm, and the Smart GPS system automatically registers the print within as little as 40 metres. Online barcode quality control takes place across the width and length of the web.
We have our own photopolymer plate prepress and graphic studio, which ensures brand colour consistency on different types of packaging, as well as full control over the printing process, which secures on-time delivery of orders.
Depending on the type of packaging, we select the appropriate inks: fluorescent, pearlescent, matt, glossy or metallic. Combinations of these effects, such as matt with glossy or matt with pearlescent, also work very well. Thermochromic inks, in which the print is only visible within a certain temperature range, work well in some projects. We also use soft-touch inks (pleasant to the touch) or scented inks.

Frequently asked questions
Can the film be sealed on a fast line?
Yes. We have a structure designed specifically for high-output flow pack machines. We achieve excellent machine speeds while reducing sealing time and temperature.
Can a flow pack be mono-material?
Yes: EcoPAK mono PE and mono PP. We have implemented them for many customers, after trials on the customer’s lines.
What is a zoned laminate?
A zoned laminate is a packaging material in which paper is bonded to film only in selected areas. Where there is no paper layer, clear film remains, creating a window that shows the product. The solution combines the natural look of paper with the protective properties of film.
What production capabilities do you offer?
We produce packaging films as webs up to 1200 mm wide, with flexographic printing in up to 10 colours. We match the film parameters to the product, the packaging technology and the specifics of the packaging line.
