The further development was concentrated on extending the manufacture of films and on the large-scale production of thermoformed parts, particularly in the field of Fast Food.
In 2002, by introducing SAP and the perspective networking of all processes, a pioneering decision was realised for the future of the enterprise.
By reason of the rapid growth of the requirements for product safety and the legal responsibility of the manufacturer of packages in combination with an abundance of EU directives, a continuous hygiene and quality management was introduced. Consequently, the processes obtained a variety of certifications.

SICHT-PACK HAGNER Translation:
New production plant in the USA / Future Films out of PET / Market development with KoSa

After having established its strong position in Europe in the market for films and film packages, sicht-pack Hagner GmbH (D-72280 Dornstetten / Hallwangen; www.sicht-pack-hagner.de) now expands in the USA, too. Beginning of February, Hagner is going to launch a plant with initially one extrusion line for A-PET and PET-G in Spartanburg, South Carolina. According to managing director Heinrich Hagner, the investment sum amounts to a total of 7.5 m USD.

The plant at first serves for supplying the company-owned Canadian branch in Montreal where packages were produced out of PVC films supplied by external manufacturers to date. The production is now to be readjusted to PET from Spartanburg. The new factory was erected on the local premises of the world market leader of PET manufacturing KoSa (Germany: D-60528 Frankfurt; www.kosa.com). Hereby, a loose strategic partnership is also expressed. KoSa wants to leverage the utilization of PET packaging films in the USA where the PVC still dominates. The new affiliated Hagner company Future Film 2000 is intended to take part in the brake-through into the new market. Expansions of the plant are possible offhand and planned.
