Manufacturing process

At Alimac Group, we prioritize a sustainable manufacturing process through a circular approach to our operations. The process is divided into three main steps:

1. Internal Production and Quality Control

In-house Film Extrusion: Utilizing advanced extrusion lines, we produce our PP and PE films internally. This allows us to efficiently manage resources and minimize waste, aligning with our goal of sustainable production.
Custom Adhesive Production: Our hot melt adhesives are developed and produced on-site, tailored to meet specific client needs. This ensures exceptional quality and less reliance on external suppliers, reinforcing our sustainable practices.
Comprehensive Quality Control: We implement rigorous quality checks throughout the production process. Continuous testing of our handle tapes’ elongation, strength, and load capacity ensures they meet our high standards for durability and performance.

2. Innovation and Environmental Responsibility

Eco-friendly Innovations: Leading the way in environmental sustainability, we focus on creating single-material solutions for fully recyclable packaging and experimenting with water-based adhesives to lessen our ecological impact.
Reducing Single-Use Plastics: In partnership with equipment manufacturers, we innovate to use thinner films that maintain packaging integrity, directly contributing to plastic reduction.
Advancing Recyclability: Our development of MOPE-based pre-laminated handle tapes and exploration of recycled plastic usage are crucial steps towards enhancing the recyclability of our products, with an aim to include over 30% recycled content.

3. Lamination Expertise and Client Collaboration

Expert Lamination Process: At our lamination center of excellence, we efficiently combine different materials like paper and plastic, optimizing the lamination process and minimizing scrap.
Client-Centric Collaboration: We engage closely with our clients to tailor sustainable packaging solutions, leveraging their feedback for continual product and process enhancements.

By integrating these practices, Alimac Group not only leads in quality and innovation but also actively supports the shift towards more sustainable packaging solutions in the industry.
