With over 20 years of our experience and expertise, we are able to deliver the best solutions to all categories of industries and, for this year, we are planning to significantly increase our production lines by installing 7 new machines to efficiently support our current customers. In addition, we found that the new generation of customers had a trend to turn to using more environmentally friendly and healthy products, i. e. switching to POF plastic instead of PVC because POF is recyclable and does not contain carcinogens. The company has developed a variety of products to respond to this matter. Yet, another environmentally friendly innovation of ours is PEF, which is our major step forward in promoting the use of bioplastics to replace petroleum-based plastics, which is in line with the sustainability concept on which entrepreneurs around the world are placing an importance, in order to reduce the impact on the environment and tangibly solve the problems of climate changes.”

One of the plastic trends that manufacturers around the world are interested in is PEF (Polyethylene Furanoate), a 100% bio-based plastic that can reduce the Carbon Footprint in production by more than 50% when compared to the production of the conventional PET bottles. PEF plastic is also superior in the properties to PET plastic in every aspect, whether in mechanical and water resistance properties including heat stability, and lighter weight. Another amazing thing about PEF, despite its high durability, is that it is 100% recyclable though the general plastic recycling process is used and that it can be decomposed within just 1 year with a composter under the appropriate conditions. Or if it should escape into nature, it would be decomposed after that in just a few years. These factors make PEF plastic a potential replacement for PET plastic made from petroleum, effectively.
Flexi-Pack offers PEF plastic packaging products in both roll and bag forms, ready to meet the needs of modern entrepreneurs who care for the environment and the conservation of natural resources, including increasing the value of products with sustainability properties which is in line with the advanced product criteria of the European Union and other regions of the world.
In addition to the packaging products, Flexi-Pack also offers research and development services for packaging by a Team of Experts who have gone through training and skill development courses in packaging specifically to help customers who want to penetrate the market, to be able to do the packaging designs suitable for their products and affordable budgets.
