Thickness reduction, better for the environment and your wallet

KIVO Flexible Plastics is a driver of thickness reduction. The benefits of this are endless for customers and the environment. By deploying innovative formulations, huge savings are still achieved for the same or even improved properties. Using thinner films means less material cost per package, less raw material consumption, waste and more metres on the roll. Partly as a result, this also has positive effects on machine downtime, transport, storage and energy consumption. Thickness reductions of as much as 50% are no exception.
