Anniversary: 20 years of Brückner Slovakia

The Brückner Group has had successful business relations in present-day Slovakia since the 1970s. The decision to open an assembly plant in the vicinity of important suppliers in 2004 was a major step towards the company's own location. Looking back over the last 20 years, the location decision in favor of Slovakia has proven right multiple times – since 2004, Brückner Slovakia has been an important part of the value chain of Brückner Group and all its companies. The range of services of Brückner Slovakia includes mechanical and electrical pre-assembly, purchasing and logistics services, as well as worldwide assembly services for the Group companies' customers on a total surface of over 32,000 m².

Triple Bubble® Technology

Kuhne Anlagenbau GmbH’s focus at NPE 2024, in Orlando, Florida, USA will be on large turnkey lines for extruding flexible simultaneously biaxially oriented barrier shrink films that do not require polyamide (PA) or polyester (PET) as a layer to impart strength to the structure. Consequently, they can be easily recycled together with (at most 5%) EVOH in the PE recycling stream. The required robustness and puncture resistance are achieved inline during processing in the Triple-Bubble® process using gentle radiation crosslinking employed by Kuhne. This acts from the outside to a shallow depth of only 5 to 10 µm, without damaging the EVOH layer and reducing recyclability. As a result, there is no need for an additional post-processing step, which would increase costs. The resultant films are sufficiently flexible and elastic to achieve good levels of shrinkage. At the same time, however, they also provide the mechanical strength required to be able to reliably fill the bags, even with contents weighing several kilograms.

Sustainable packaging

Under the main topic of “responsibility,” Anuga FoodTec will be directing the focus this year towards concepts that aim to use resources responsibly along the entire value chain. The two sustainable packaging concepts that ULMA Packaging and SÜDPACK will be presenting at the international trade event are sure to strike a chord. Both the flow pack and thermoformed packaging are based on monomaterial structures, which makes them fully recyclable. More-over, they stand out due to their high material efficiency.
