Your specialist for beverage packaging

The growing market pressure in the beverage sector places high demands on packaging manufacturers when it comes to flexibility, product quality and efficiency of packaging machines.

Our new products - innovative packaging types, shapes and qualities - are also driven by a strong environmental awareness and the demand for sustainability. Several new developments have revolutionised the sector.

Reference

Special packaging designs

“Our gin packaging acts as a calling card for pure gin enjoyment: extremely cool, provocative and unfussy. With a black offset drink and white hot foil embossing on the matt white rough cardboard, Karl Knauer has precisely met our tastes and needs - we really hit the jackpot!”

Can Saglam, Managing Director of HEERSCHILD

Sustainability

LitePac Top brings sustainability to container packaging

PET bottles with cardboard carry handle — LitePac Top PET: high carrying comfort and high transport stability

PET bottles with cardboard packaging instead of plastic — LitePac Top PET: Cardboard instead of foil with highly improved environmental balance

Cardboard can clip — LitePac Top can clip: the cardboard below the can seam keeps the pack in shape

Alternatives to shrink wrap

Tighter laws and a change in consumer attitudes demand alternatives to plastic and foil. Despite this, PET bottles are still Germany’s most popular primary packaging for drinks. This makes it all the more important to avoid plastic in secondary packaging.

Revolutionary cardboard container packaging
Working together with Krones AG, system suppliers in the beverage sector, we have developed sustainable “LitePac Top” packaging. Instead of shrink wrap, a sturdy box holds 6-packs of 0.5 to 2-litre PET bottles or beverage cans securely together. “LitePac Top” attached from above connects half a dozen at a time. For the 1.5 and 2 litre bottles, 100% paper hoops provide additional stability.
