Production bei Maag

RESOURCE BASIS

Our goal is to conserve resources and avoid waste.  
To this end, we have implemented appropriate measures in production and in all processes. Our success: We work climate neutral since 03/2021. But we go even further, because fossil resources are finite. We are therefore examining the use of biogenic resources, e.g. tall oil, which is a secondary product in the production of cellulose (paper). We plan the deployment with partners in the value chain.

ADVANTAGES

  • Protection of fossil resources.
  • Economic advantages as an "early adopter".
  • Future, monetary environmental policy incentives/savings on future license fees.

Cooperation with other stakeholders in the value chain - from raw material suppliers and retailers/brand owners to recyclers and reusers - is essential. We work in research groups and have been working closely with environmental associations for years to drive solutions forward.

Re-Design Packaging

We scrutinize your packaging. How much packaging is really necessary?

DSignificant potential savings can be realized by changing the packaging concept.
We provide in-depth advice on ways to reduce material, to recycle and to cut costs.
Your advantages with maag I pro-tect:

- Savings in (future) license fees.
- Material savings.
- Logistics advantages.
- Recyclability.

We have realized savings opportunities of up to 70% in packaging layout, materials and logistics.

Material

We believe in PP!

POLYPROPYLENE has excellent chemical, thermal, mechanical and optical properties for packaging.
PP is also used as a recyclate in a variety of other markets, so that its reuse is assured.
Our single-substance PP composites ensure mechanical recyclability. Multilayer composites, on the other hand, are not separable during the recycling process.
There is a sorting and recovery infrastructure for our packaging in material recycling. The packaging components are homogeneous and they do not contain any substances that could prevent recycling in practice.

Our recyclable single-substance solutions with Maag I pro-tect have excellent functional values in both the packaging and sorting processes:
- Very good machine running properties.
- Melt flow indices and density are suitable for the recycling process.
- Thicknesses from 15 to 100 μ

 100% PP as duplex or triplex

  • High protective functions against mineral oil residues MOSH / MOAH
  • Oxygen barrier up to 0.1 cm /m /d
  • Water vapor barrier up to 0.1 g /m /d
  • Very good sealing properties
  • Very good machine properties
  • Transparent, white or metallized

PRINTING

10 color flexo printing with brilliant results for your communication is our standard.

We will advise you in detail and find the best solution for your product.

  • Which design solutions, which encodings or which digital watermarks should be used on the basis of existing processing technologies?
  • How do colors and the number of colors affect the recycling process?
  • Which color chemistry, how much and which additives are optimal?
  • How does the printing process affect the design?
  • How much ink coverage is possible and how does that affect the recycling process?
