In the industrial sector an envelope can protect screws, small parts, Spare parts, mechanical components, semi-finished products, or products of very different shapes. Defining it solely by width, length, and microns risks oversimplifying the problem. Packaging must be designed around the component and the path it takes.

Weight, edges, surfaces, insertion, handling and storage methods can completely change the requirements even between two apparently similar items.

Starting from the component

The first step is to observe the product. How much does it weigh? Is it a single piece or composed of multiple pieces? Does it have any teeth, edges, threads, or sharp elements? Can it move freely within the bag? Is it susceptible to dust or contamination? This information helps determine the required performance.

Dimensions: leave the right amount of space

A bag that's too small can strain the film and make filling and closing difficult. A bag that's too large can increase the amount of material, bulk, and movement of the product inside. Dimensions must therefore consider not only the static bulk of the component, but also how it's inserted and handled.

Thickness and material

The thickness must be consistent with the actual risk. A heavy but rounded component may require different characteristics than a lightweight part with sharp edges. The choice between different types of polyethylene or other single-material solutions must also be based on the required performance and the customer's process.

Welding and closures

The bottom of the bag, the side seals, and any closure system must be able to withstand the expected loads. If the product is inserted from the top and then heat-sealed, adequate space must be left for this operation. If quick opening or identification of the contents is required, the configuration may vary.

Handling, storage and logistics

Industrial packaging continues to work after it's been packaged. It can be placed in crates, cartons, pallets, or line containers; it can be stacked, transported, and handled multiple times. Knowing where and how these operations occur helps prevent breakages that wouldn't be apparent just by looking at the component sitting on a table.

When automation comes into play

If the bag is to be used on an automated system, opening, flowability, flatness, electrostatic behavior, dimensional tolerances, and film continuity also become important. In these cases, packaging isn't just an accessory: it's part of the production process.

Useful, not decorative, customization

Printing, codes, colors, pre-cuts, or special configurations can be valuable when they improve identification, use, or logistics management. Personalization should therefore address a specific need, not be added out of habit.

The Teamplast approach

To develop an industrial envelope For effective design, we prefer to start from a sample, drawing, or actual information about the component and the process. This way, dimensions, material, thickness, welding, and packaging can be evaluated as a single system.

The goal isn't to create the sturdiest envelope, but one that protects the product properly, works seamlessly with the customer's process, and uses the right amount of material without excess.

For this reason, it's also useful to understand the operations involved in packaging: how the component is inserted, who handles the closure, where it is stored, and what steps it undergoes before delivery. The presence of sharp edges, delicate parts, or surfaces requiring protection influence the assessment, along with the weight and shape of the piece. The number of components per bag and the frequency of use also help define a practical solution. The initial comparison thus allows us to clarify priorities and identify the aspects to be verified with a sample, before confirming the specifications of the supply and proceeding with the production of the bag.

Send us Dimensions, weight, and usage instructions for the component: we'll work together to determine the most suitable packaging for the actual product, your specific needs, and the expected usage conditions.

In the food industry, crates, tubs, boxes, trolleys, and other containers are often combined with films, inner bags, or covers. At first glance, they may seem similar, but they perform different functions. The right choice depends on what needs to be protected, how the filling is done, and what happens to the product in subsequent stages.

A liner can create an internal barrier between the product and the container; a cover can protect the contents from the environment during waiting, handling, or storage. In some processes, the two functions can even be combined.

When you need an inner bag or liner

The inner bag lines the container and accompanies the product along its internal surfaces. It's useful when you want to separate the contents from the container or tub, facilitate product management, or provide additional protection during transport and storage.

To define it correctly, you need to know the container's geometry and internal dimensions, filling method, weight and characteristics of the product, any edges, temperatures, and how the liner is fixed, folded, or closed.

When is a cover more suitable?

A cover works primarily on the top or outside of the container. It can be used to limit product exposure during a waiting period, protect a cart or tub during handling, or cover the contents before further processing.

Ease of installation, stability of the covering, size, any need for abundance, opening and quick removal become important here.

The food context requires precise information

When plastic materials are intended for food contact, the intended use must be properly defined. The customer should share the type of food, conditions of use, temperatures, and expected contact times so that the solution can be evaluated based on actual use and applicable documentation.

It is therefore not enough to generically define a material as "food-grade": conformity and suitability must be considered in relation to the intended conditions of use.

Material and thickness: avoid automatisms

Even for liners and covers, thickness shouldn't be chosen out of habit. A film must have the strength required for the process, but oversizing increases raw material consumption without automatically creating any benefits. Container geometry, weight, handling, and puncture risk are all factors that should be considered together.

A simple solution may require a lot of planning

A large bag placed in a container may seem like a basic product. In reality, the wrong size can make filling difficult, create unwanted creases, increase the risk of tearing, or complicate the work of workers. The same goes for a cover that's too short, too large, or too unstable.

For this reason, the starting point should always be the customer's process and, when possible, the actual container or a dimensioned drawing.

The Teamplast approach

Teamplast develops bags, liners, and plastic film covers based on actual usage conditions. Size, material, thickness, and configuration are correlated with the container, product, and process. The goal is simple: achieve functional protection without complicating the user's work.

To identify the most suitable solution, it's helpful to consider every operational phase: from inserting the bag into the container to filling, handling, and emptying. Even seemingly minor details, such as ease of opening, adhesion to the walls, or closure management, can impact daily use. Discussing specific needs allows for a more informed definition of packaging characteristics, avoiding choices based solely on size or thickness. Sharing precise information about the product to be protected and its intended use therefore becomes the starting point for developing a solution consistent with the needs of the company and the operators involved.

Describe us container, product, and method of use: we can evaluate the most suitable configuration together.

When a company requests a new customized bag or film, the first temptation is to start with dimensions, microns, and price. In reality, an effective design should begin one step earlier: with application. The same bag, with the same dimensions, can behave very differently if it must contain a light or heavy product, be filled manually or on an automatic line, be kept at room temperature or withstand cold, heat, and repeated handling.

For this reason, a good supplier shouldn't simply ask, "What size do you need?" They should gather the information needed to translate a production requirement into consistent technical specifications. This is what distinguishes a simply customized product from packaging truly designed for its intended use.

1. What should it contain?

The first factor is the product. Weight, shape, surface, the presence of sharp edges, dust, moisture, or abrasive particles influence the choice of film. A metal component, an item of clothing, and a food product require different criteria, even when the external dimensions of the bag are similar.

It's also helpful to describe how the product is inserted and removed. A bag used only once for logistical protection has different needs than a package opened and resealed multiple times.

2. Dimensions: it is not enough to indicate width and length

Product dimensions, required tolerances, and the way the bag must wrap are crucial. In some cases, gussets, folds, filler allowances, sealing flaps, or usable dimensions after sealing must be considered. A physical sample or drawing can avoid interpretations and speed up the solution definition.

3. How is it packaged and handled?

Packaging must function seamlessly with the customer's process. It's important to know whether filling is manual or automatic, whether the bag must slide on guides or conveyors, whether it is heat-sealed by the customer, placed in crates or cartons, palletized, or moved multiple times. Friction, bag opening, and film behavior on the lines can also become technical requirements.

4. What services are really necessary?

Simply saying "it must be resistant" isn't enough. You need to understand the stress: tensile, puncture, tear, drop, compression, welding, or rubbing. Defining the problem allows you to work on the material, formulation, thickness, and process without automatically resorting to more microns.

5. Material, thickness and welding

LDPE, HDPE, MDPE, and PP have different characteristics. The choice must be consistent with the application, the production process, and end-of-life objectives. Thickness should also be chosen based on the required performance, not out of habit. Finally, the geometry and type of weld can be crucial: in many applications, the critical point is not the film, but the welded area.

6. Printing is part of the project

If the packaging needs to be printed, graphics and technical requirements must be addressed before production: number of colors, position, reading direction, repeat, sealing areas, and substrate transparency can impact the final result. Integrating printing into the project avoids late corrections and rework.

7. Volumes, packaging and logistics

Order quantities, reorder frequency, package weight, palletization, and warehouse space are all information that helps build an industrially sustainable solution. Technically sound packaging must also be producible, manageable, and consistent with customer flows.

The Teamplast approach

For Teamplast, designing custom packaging means balancing the application, material, process, and actual use. The more accurate information is shared upfront, the quicker it is possible to arrive at a technically sound proposal and reduce unnecessary testing, oversizing, and subsequent modifications.

The starting question, then, is not "which envelope do you want?" but "what should this envelope do in your process?" The project begins there.

Tell us about your application: Let's start from the real requirements to evaluate the most suitable solution.

Paper or plastic? The material that seems more sustainable isn't always the one that pollutes less.

“Paper or plastic?” It seems like a simple question.

It is also one of the most frequently asked questions when talking about packaging sustainability. The problem is that, formulated like this, it does not have a scientifically valid answer for all applications.

A material is not sustainable or unsustainable at all.

To compare two solutions, you must first verify that they perform the same function and then observe the entire life cycle:

• raw materials;
• quantity used;
• production;
• transport;
• use;
• reuse;
• recycling;
• end of life.

The starting point: same function

Comparing a paper bag and a plastic one only by kilogram of material can be misleading if very different weights are needed to achieve the same performance.

The so-called functional unit It is essential: the comparison must concern solutions that protect or transport the same quantity of product under the same conditions.

This is why slogans like:

“Material X is always better than material Y”

they are of little use in industrial design.

What is Life Cycle Assessment?

The Life Cycle Assessment, or LCA, is a method for assessing the environmental impacts associated with the different phases of the life cycle of a product or system.

It is therefore not limited to the moment in which we see the packaging, but tries to consider what happens before and after.

For packaging, the relevant variables may include:

• consumption of raw materials;
• energy and water;
• packaging mass;
• transport;
• number of uses;
• product protection;
• collection;
• recycling;
• other end-of-life scenarios.

Because lightness matters

One of the strengths of flexible packaging is the relationship between function and quantity of material.

A very lightweight solution can require less material per functional unit and reduce the weight moved along logistics.

This does not automatically make plastic the best choice:

• effective recyclability;
• dispersion into the environment;
• recycled content;
• duration;
• collection infrastructure;

remain essential elements.

But it means that weight cannot be ignored in comparison.

When paper can be the right choice

Paper can offer significant advantages in applications compatible with its properties, especially when the collection and recycling system is effective and when complex structures or large quantities of material are not necessary to achieve the required performance.

Even in this case, however, it is necessary to look at the real solution, including:

• any coverings;
• couplings;
• barriers;
• overall weight.

When a single plastic material can be competitive

In applications where packaging is required:

• light;
• moisture resistant;
• weldable;
• with good mechanical performance;

a monomaterial polyethylene film can offer a very efficient function/weight ratio.

If designed to be recyclable in available streams and properly collected, it can represent a rational solution.

The key point is to avoid ideological opposition:

Sustainability is not measured by the sensation a material transmits to the touch, but by the impacts of the system as a whole.

And the product contained?

Packaging that reduces its impact but increases product losses can worsen the overall balance.

Content protection is therefore part of the packaging sustainability, not a separate topic.

This principle is particularly important for foods and products with high environmental or economic value.

The CAC plastic values will change from October 1st.

The new CONAI Environmental Contribution (CAC) rates for plastic packaging will come into effect on October 1, 2026. The adjustment affects all nine contribution brackets.

CONAI links the intervention to the economic and industrial evolution of the plastics recycling supply chain, in a context characterized by market volatility, rising management costs, and critical issues in the European recycled plastics market.

The new values from 1 October 2026

Important: The table shows the general values published by CONAI. The identification of the band applicable to a specific package must be carried out using the official CONAI tools and criteria.

What category does your packaging fall into? Check with CONAI.

The contribution classification does not depend solely on the product's commercial name or the generically indicated material. To identify the item, the declaration code, the contribution band (if any), and the applicable CAC value, CONAI provides the official tool "“CONAI packaging code”, which guides the company through a specific questionnaire.

We therefore invite each company to carry out the check directly on the CONAI portal: www.codiceimballaggi-conai.org

Teamplast can provide technical information about the packaging product—material, structure, weight, dimensions, and characteristics—but does not assign or certify the customer's CONAI contribution level. The classification must be verified through CONAI and its official tools.

Why CONAI decided to restructure

According to CONAI, the overall increase in quantities managed by the consortium system continues to impact the supply chain, resulting in higher collection, sorting, and recycling costs. Critical issues also remain in the European recycled plastics market.

The effective date of October 1, 2026, was also established to provide companies with a notice period before the new values come into force.

What to check in your company

For those who purchase or use packaging, the CAC update is an opportunity to check that the technical information for their products is available and up-to-date.

• Packaging material and structure.
• Unit weight and quantities used.
• Item and packaging code identified through the CONAI questionnaire.
• Contribution bracket and CAC value resulting from official CONAI instruments.
• Any changes that have occurred in the lists and classification criteria.

Teamplast's role: clear technical data on packaging

Teamplast develops flexible PE and PP packaging based on the actual application: product to be contained, packaging process, dimensions, mechanical requirements, welding, printing, and conditions of use. Extrusion, flexographic printing, and converting are handled in-house.

Our mission, including with respect to CONAI requirements, is to ensure that customers have access to accurate technical information on the packaging provided. However, contribution bracket assignment remains within the scope of official CONAI criteria and tools.

From October 1st: prepare in advance

Companies using plastic packaging should therefore promptly verify the new values and, for each product, verify the correct classification using the official CONAI tool. This way, they can approach the new effective date with clear and up-to-date data, reducing doubts, errors, or unsupported interpretations and managing environmental contribution obligations more consciously.

For technical information on your packaging Teamplast We're here to help. To check your contribution bracket, please use the official CONAI questionnaire.

From granule to bag: how flexible polyethylene packaging is actually created

A polyethylene bag may seem like a simple product. In reality, before reaching the customer, it goes through a series of technical decisions and processes where a few details can significantly impact the final result.

Follow the path from granule to bag It helps to understand why size, material, printing and welding are not independent elements, but parts of the same project.

Oversized packaging: how much material do we waste without realizing it?

In flexible packaging, a few grams seem irrelevant. Multiplied by hundreds of thousands or millions of pieces, however, they become tons of raw material, purchasing costs, transformation energy, weight moved and waste to be managed at end of life.

For this reason the oversized packaging It deserves attention: packaging must protect the product and function in the customer's process, but material beyond the necessary level does not automatically create value.

What is oversized packaging?

It is a packaging that, in relation to the required function, uses more material, weight, or volume than necessary.

In flexible film it can derive from:

• a thickness historically maintained “for safety”;
• specifications never reviewed;
• excessive margins on dimensions;
• a project no longer aligned with the materials and processes available today.

Warning: Calling it oversized requires proof.

Thicker film may be essential to withstand punctures, loads, temperatures, packaging speeds, or critical seals.

Optimization isn't something you decide on just by looking at microns.

The hidden cost of a few grams

Let's take a reference from 25 g produced in 2 million pieces per year: I am 50,000 kg of material.

If testing and validation allowed us to get down to 22.5 g, a reduction of the 10%, consumption would become 45,000 kg.

The theoretical saving would therefore be 5,000 kg per year.

The economic benefit isn't just the cost of the raw material. Less weight can also mean less material to handle and store and, in some cases, improved logistics efficiency.

The environmental advantage arises above all from the material that does not need to be produced and transformed.

In common parlance we often hear about “food grade plastic”. From a technical point of view, however, the correct question is more precise:

Is that material and packaging compliant for the contact conditions expected with that specific food?

Food contact suitability is not a generic quality that can be attributed to any bag simply because it is made of polyethylene.

It is the result of legislative requirements, choice of raw materials, conditions of use, good manufacturing practices, documentation and conformity checks.

The European regulatory framework

The Regulation (EC) No. 1935/2004 establishes the general principle: under normal or foreseeable conditions of use, materials in contact with food must not transfer components in quantities such as to:

• endanger health;
• unacceptably modify the composition of the food;
• deteriorate its organoleptic characteristics.

For plastic materials and objects, the Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011, with the list of authorised substances, restrictions, migration limits and rules for demonstrating compliance.

Global migration and specific migration

The concept of migration it is central.

Global migration

Overall migration considers the overall amount of constituents that can be transferred from the material to the food simulant.

Specific migration

Specific migration, on the other hand, concerns certain substances for which individual limits are foreseen.

Tests and evaluations must be consistent with actual or foreseeable use:

• type of food;
• contact time;
• temperature;
• surface area/volume ratio;
• other conditions of use.

These variables can change the compliance framework. Therefore, a correct declaration must also describe any limitations on use.

The declaration of conformity is not a label

In the marketing stages other than retail, the Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011 provides for a written declaration of conformity for plastic materials and objects and for intermediate products.

The document must clearly identify the material to which it refers and be supported by supporting documentation.

This is an important point for those who buy packaging:

Asking for a statement does not mean collecting a standard sheet of paper.

It means ensuring that the product, raw materials, conditions of use and documentation are consistent.

Traceability and GMP

The Regulation (EC) No. 1935/2004 requires the traceability of materials and objects throughout the production and distribution phases.

The Regulation (EC) No. 2023/2006 discipline instead good manufacturing practices (GMP), requiring documented quality assurance and control systems.

For printed packaging, GMPs also address the risk of substance transfer from the printed surface to the food contact side, through the substrate or by set-off.

What should the customer communicate to the manufacturer?

To properly design a food packaging It is useful to know at least:

• food or family of foods;
• contact time;
• temperature;
• any heat treatments;
• filling mode;
• storage;
• end use.

This information allows you to check whether the proposed solution is consistent with the intended use.

The Teamplast approach

In food packaging, quality isn't limited to the finished bag: it includes raw materials, process, hygiene, traceability, document control, and application knowledge.

For this reason, the technical comparison between the customer and the processor is an essential part of the project.

Saying that packaging is "food-safe" is simple. Demonstrating why it's suitable for its intended use is the work behind that definition.

Do you have a food app? Together, we define the conditions of use and documentation requirements, evaluating the application's characteristics and the information needed to identify a solution consistent with the intended use.

How thick should an LDPE bag be?

Because more microns doesn't always mean more resistance.

When talking about LDPE bags and flexible packaging, one of the most frequent requests is apparently simple:

“Can we increase the thickness of the bag to make it more resistant?”

The intuitive answer would be yes, but when designing flexible packaging thickness is only one of the parameters at play.

A thicker bag may improve some performance, but it doesn't automatically mean a better bag. The final strength depends on the combination of material, formulation, geometry, manufacturing process, welds, and actual usage conditions.

What does “70 microns” really mean?

A microns (µm) corresponds to a thousandth of a millimeter. A film from 70 µm therefore has a nominal thickness of 0.070 mm.

On a single envelope the difference between 70 and 100 µm It seems minimal; on millions of pieces, however, it becomes a significant quantity of raw material.

At the same size and density, going from 70 to 100 µm approximately 43% more material is used.

This does not mean, however, that you automatically get the 43% more performance: mechanical properties do not all increase linearly with thickness.

What does resistance really depend on?

Envelope dimensions and geometry

Larger surfaces and different shapes change the stress distribution.

Weight and nature of the contents

Soft, granulated, frozen products, metal components or objects with sharp edges require different performance.

Polyethylene type and formulation

Toughness, elasticity, stiffness and tear resistance also depend on the choice of granules and additives.

Extruded film quality

Homogeneity, thickness tolerances and process stability impact performance consistency.

Welding

In many applications the critical point may be the seal, not the film.

Terms of Use

Temperature, filling, handling, transport and storage must be considered already in the design phase.

Does more microns mean more resistance?

Increasing the thickness may be the right solution when the application requires it.

But designing starting from the number of microns alone easily leads to oversize the packaging.

The useful question is not:

“How much can we increase the thickness?”

but rather:

“What is the minimum thickness that safely guarantees the required function?”

Reducing thickness does not mean reducing quality

The downgauging It is the optimization work with which we try to reduce the weight of the packaging while maintaining the necessary performance.

It is not a simple thinning: it requires knowledge of the material, testing, process control and verification on the real application.

A purely theoretical example:

• 1,000,000 20g sachets require 20,000 kg of material.
• If the same function could be guaranteed with a solution from 16 g, consumption would drop to 16,000 kg.
• The result would be 4 tons less raw material per year.

The PPWR goes in the same direction

The Regulation (EU) 2025/40 introduces the principle of packaging minimization: weight and volume must be reduced to the minimum necessary while maintaining functionality.

Annex IV links this assessment to concrete criteria, including:

• product protection;
• production and filling processes;
• logistics;
• mechanical resistance;
• hygiene requirements.

The principle, therefore, is not “less plastic at any cost”, but less material where technically possible without compromising the function of the packaging.

The Teamplast approach

To define an envelope we don't just consider microns.

We evaluate application, content, size, filling, handling, material, formulation, welding and customization.

The goal is to use the necessary material: no more than necessary, but not less than what is needed to work safely and continuously.

Therefore, there is no one right thickness for all LDPE bags. There is only one thickness that's right for a specific application.

Tell us about your application:
We can evaluate the material, thickness, and performance requirements together, identifying the solution best suited to the actual conditions of use and the needs of your production process.

Among the most used materials in the sector we find the low density polyethylene (LDPE), The high density polyethylene (HDPE) and the polypropylene (PP), three solutions that, thanks to their technical characteristics, allow the creation of a wide range of packaging intended for the most diverse industrial and commercial sectors.

At Teamplast, we transform these materials into customized envelopes, bags, shopping bags, and packaging, designing the best solution for each customer's specific application needs.

Why is the material so important?

Each product to be packaged has different needs.

Some items require high mechanical resistance, others require transparency, lightness, rigidity or particular aesthetic characteristics.

The correct choice of material allows you to:

• optimize packaging costs;
• improve product protection;
• increase the efficiency of packaging lines;
• improve the end-user experience;
• promote the recovery and recycling of end-of-life packaging.

For this reason, the selection of raw materials is always one of the first aspects analyzed by Teamplast technicians during the development of a new project.

LDPE: flexibility and versatility

Low density polyethylene, LDPE, is one of the most used materials in flexible packaging thanks to its exceptional versatility.

It is characterized by:

• high flexibility;
• excellent impact resistance;
• excellent weldability;
• good transparency;
• high elasticity.

These characteristics make it ideal for the production of:

• clothing bags;
• personalized shopping bags;
• industrial packaging;
• technical bags;
• e-commerce packaging;
• packaging for commercial products.

LDPE is often the best choice when looking for softness, resistance and ease of use.

HDPE: lightness and resistance

High density polyethylene, HDPE, has a more compact molecular structure which gives it different characteristics compared to LDPE.

Its main advantages are:

• high tensile strength;
• excellent weight/performance ratio;
• greater rigidity;
• excellent puncture resistance;
• possibility of reducing thicknesses while maintaining high performance.

HDPE is frequently used for:

• lightweight, high-resistance shoppers;
• retail bags;
• packaging for the food sector;
• technical and industrial packaging;
• applications where high robustness is required with minimal use of material.

Thanks to its characteristics, it often allows significant weight reductions to be achieved without compromising the performance of the packaging.

PP: transparency and aesthetic quality

Polypropylene, PP, it is particularly appreciated when the packaging must visually enhance the product contained.

Its main features include:

• high gloss;
• excellent transparency;
• excellent rigidity;
• good mechanical resistance;
• high aesthetic quality.

For these reasons PP is used above all for:

• packaging intended for the fashion sector;
• promotional packaging;
• stationery;
• products intended for display in points of sale;
• packaging that requires a high visual impact.

When aesthetics play a central role, polypropylene often represents the most suitable solution.

Different materials, a common goal: maximum adaptability

One of the major strengths of LDPE, HDPE and PP is their extraordinary ductility.

These materials can in fact be transformed into a wide variety of customized solutions:

• side-sealed envelopes;
• bags with bottom seal;
• shopper with die-cut handle;
• bags with gussets;
• packages with micro-perforations;
• packaging with pre-cuts;
• custom printed envelopes;
• packaging for automatic lines.

The ability to customize formats, thicknesses, mechanical characteristics, and graphics allows us to develop packaging perfectly suited to the needs of each sector.

Single-material packaging: a choice geared towards the circular economy

Today, packaging must not only perform well, but also be designed to facilitate proper end-of-life management.

For this reason Teamplast favours the creation of single-material solutions, which facilitate collection, selection and recycling operations.

Bags made of LDPE, HDPE and PP can in fact be disposed of in the respective plastics recovery streams and reintroduced into the production processes in the form of new raw material.

The use of single-material structures represents one of the fundamental principles of modern sustainable packaging design, as it contributes to improving the recyclability of packaging and reducing the dispersion of resources.

Recyclability: a concrete value

We often tend to consider plastic exclusively as waste, forgetting that materials such as LDPE, HDPE and PP have significant value as a recoverable resource.

If properly collected and sent to treatment plants, these polymers can be sorted, ground, regenerated and transformed into new applications.

True sustainability depends not only on the materials used, but on the entire life cycle of the product, from design to final recovery.

For this reason, Teamplast constantly invests in the development of technically efficient, single-material packaging that is fully compatible with modern circular economy processes.

The right solution comes from experience

There is no single best material.

However, there is the most suitable material for each application.

The choice between LDPE, HDPE, and PP depends on numerous factors: product weight, packaging method, aesthetic requirements, required strength, logistics, and sustainability objectives.

Thanks to the experience gained in the transformation of plastic materials and the complete integration of extrusion, printing and welding processes, Teamplast is able to guide each customer in choosing the most effective solution.

Because good packaging doesn't just come from quality raw materials, but from the ability to transform them into the most suitable solution for real market needs.
