SICHT-PACK HAGNER GMBHTranslation:
PET film manufacturing runs smoothly / Extrusion line of Barmag / Investment of 7 m DMIn KUNSTSTOFF INFOROMATION no. 842, we reported in detail about the in-house production of PET films being established at sicht-pack Hagner GmbH (D-7295 Dornstetten/Hallwangen), one of the German market leaders in the field of transparent packages. Hagner being exclusively a processor of films hitherto had already decided a long time ago
to start his own in-house production of PET films – namely to replace rigid PVC on grounds of the discussion about PVC in the matter of environment and health. In the meantime, the PET film manufacturing has been running since end of November – without any noteworthy start-up problems.
An investment of 7 m DM altogether was made for the buildings, machines and installations. The enterprise has a capacity of 7,000 tons per year. Manufactured are, i.a., films made out of PET, PET-G, PP, PS and "Styrolux" (BASF). The polyester types
are of the thickness ranges of 120-1000 µ, the working widths amount to 1.200 mm of usable net width. Besides mono films, co-extruded multilayer PET composites are also manufactured. Hagner to KUNSTSTOFF INFORMATION: "Since the beginning of the production, already 25 m transparent packages out of polyester have been delivered. At sicht-pack, they look upon the new environmental consciousness favourably what is shown by the degree of capacity utilization of the installation. "
The PET extrusion line comes from Barmag AG (Postf. 110240, D-5630 Remscheid 11), who can figure out good chances for further CPET film installations for other midsize film processors on account of its know-how and the
