🌐 Joint trade fair appearance by Heitec and Ferrofacta in Friedrichshafen 🌐   At #Fakuma, one of the world's most important #trade fairs for the #plastics processing industry, both companies enjoyed successful and eventful exhibition days. In addition to the hot runner systems already established on the market, the new PRIMO LINE nozzle series from HEITEC was particularly well received by visitors. Due to the ever-increasing costs of energy and raw materials, the industry is demanding a technically advanced but cost-effective hot runner nozzle that can be delivered quickly, says Igor Kusic, owner of both companies. We take these requirements into account with the new PRIMO LINE. The close cooperation between #Heitec and #Ferrofacta, especially in procurement management and sales, opens up completely new possibilities, so that with the PRIMO-LINE we were able to present a nozzle series that corresponds to the latest technology and has a very good price-performance. We also guarantee our customers the shortest delivery times with the PRIMO LINE series. In summary, we are very satisfied with the trade fair. After a rather subdued first half of the year, the market will pick up significantly again in the second half of 2024, so we are very optimistic about the future. #automobile #science #plastic #tools #noozle #HotRunner #heitec #HeitecHotRunner #medical #cosmetic #PrimoLine #EnergyEfficient #goforfuture #networking

Exploring Eastern European Market with #CHINAPLAS🌍 - Europe's share of global plastics production accounted for 14% in 2022. Despite the economic challenges in the region, Eastern European market maintains its growth momentum, Poland in particular which is leader of the plastics processing industry in the region. Polish exports of plastic was $12.4 billion in 2021, and are projected to reach $14.7 billion by 2026, representing an average annual growth rate of 2.5%. - To capture the sourcing potential in #Poland, the CHINAPLAS team has interacted with buyers from Eastern Europe at PLASTPOL Expo for better understanding of market conditions. We can't wait to see them again at CHINAPLAS 2025, to be held in Shenzhen on Apr 15-18 2025! 💪🔍 - #CHINAPLAS2025 #PLASTPOL

𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐭 𝐏𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠: 𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐞-𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 The journey to improvement began with a grain of salt... Literally! At Kneipp, we are constantly striving for improvements and innovative solutions, so the automated seal inspection system by Engilico - Sealing inspection & monitoring technology for the best packaging results for our sachet packaging came just at the right time. Let us share a quick behind-the-scenes: 🛁 The challenge: Even the smallest grain of bath salts can disrupt the usually reliable seal of our sachets, compromising product integrity. “These micro-inclusions in the seal seam pose a persistent threat during packaging, leading to occasional leaks. In our continuous quest for quality, we face challenges like these, recognizing that our products endure a long journey, facing myriad obstacles along the way.” (Gabriele H., Overall Lead of Packaging) Additionally, residues from the sealing process accumulate on the machine's sealing jaws, necessitating cleaning based on historical data, often without the machine signaling the need. 🌐 Let’s have a look at how we collaborated with Engilico, an international expert for in-line sealing inspection: Our first touchpoint with Engilico was at a packaging trade fair. There, we were introduced to SealScope®: an in-line, 100 % seal inspection and process monitoring technology for flexible packages. It sounded like the perfect match for our bathing and peeling sachets.  🔍 SealScope’s® automated processes swiftly identify and eject faulty sachets. Even rejected products undergo reprocessing, aligning with our commitment to sustainability. Finally, no more manual inspections needed! Our breakthrough for more efficiency and waste reduction.  💡 Implementation impact: Reduced micro-inclusions, elevated production quality, and slashed cleaning downtime, thanks to targeted maintenance signals. 🔄 The story evolves: Inspired by success, we extended the solution to address tube leaks during transport. Engilico joined the journey again, exploring hyperspectral imaging to detect hidden issues in opaque closures. 🚀 Future collaborations: As the system originally designed for food packaging proves its versatility, we're venturing into new frontiers, potentially transforming the packaging landscape. Exciting times ahead as we push boundaries and embrace innovative solutions! #KneippInnovation #PackagingRevolution #QualityControl #GameChanger

Last week, our team had the opportunity to take part in the Barrier Rigid Packaging Event at Cazoolo Lab in São Paulo, which we organized together with Kiefel. This event brought together top innovators in the field, including industry giants like Braskem, Soarus, LLC and Kiefel. Our experts Sofija Bertasa and Dr. Paul Walach Walach informed about the challenges of barrier rigid packaging. The conversations highlighted the critical need for stringent quality standards, a deep understanding of brand owners' post-processes, and the collaborative efforts required to meet these exacting demands. Building on this, customized product development and proof of concepts are essential for ensuring a seamless market entry. Advanced technologies must guarantee optimal operational efficiency, while a flexible line concept is crucial to adapt to evolving market needs. We extend ab big thank you to all the participants and our gracious hosts. Events like these underscore the significance of partnerships between packaging producers, resin suppliers, and machinery manufacturers in delivering high-demand products.
