31 Mar 2022 --- Cosmetics and health care tube manufacturer 3D Neopac, part of Hoffmann Neopac Group in Switzerland, has strengthened the capabilities of its signature SpringTube, upgrading its on-site manufacturing technology with two additional flexo decoration stations, and introducing a new tube line for capacity extension. 3D Neopac wants to comply with India’s recently introduced national regulations after becoming an officially registered brand in the country.The company will market various eco-design adaptations of its tube portfolio, including mono-material PE tubes and tubes with locally sourced post-consumer recycled (PCR) content. “3D Neopac’s laminating machine is capable of processing the PCR quality available in India,” it says. Notably, 3D Neopac has reduced the wall thickness of its COEX and SpringTube series by up to 23% in the sleeve (up to 35% in coextruded versions) while maintaining its barrier properties and esthetic aspects.Furthermore, the company highlights its varied decorative options offer almost unlimited design and customization possibilities, eliminating the need for labels through low-migration, and eco-friendly direct printing on a mono-material structure.
