Kiefel: Thermoforming meets fiber

Freilassing, Germany

Plastics Know-How for Fiber Processing - "Reduce - Reuse - Recycle" should be more than just empty buzzwords, they should be brought to life. KIEFEL GmbH, Freilassing, is a technology partner in various domains of the plastics and packaging industry, where it supports customers in the development of sustainable materials and products. In addition to classic recyclable plastic, Kiefel systems can also process recycled (e.g. rPET) or bio-based materials (e.g. PLA).

“More and more customers are asking us about technology that they can use to produce high-quality cellulose-based packaging. Our fiber thermoforming systems provide a solution that complements plastic processing,” says Erwin Wabnig, Head of Fiber Thermoforming, describing the evolution of the new machine “NATUREFORMER”. This enables Kiefel to provide the right machine technology - whichever material the customer chooses.
