Rigid Packaging

In response to the growing and evolving needs of the packaging industry, Ultrapolymers collaborates with market leading manufacturers to deliver an exceptional range of high-performance products.

Our comprehensive portfolio includes solutions for both flexible and rigid packaging. For flexible packaging, we provide materials compatible with various film conversion technologies, including blown, cast, and mono- or multi-layer formats. For rigid packaging applications, we offer specially engineered materials with higher flow, suitable for demanding, thin-walled injection moulding as well as grades tailored towards the blow moulding processes. Our exciting range of advanced materials, including sustainable solutions, offer numerous benefits to the packaging industry.

With our broad portfolio of polymer materials, we can help you find the right solution for you.

Market segments

Bottles and Jars

Plastics are one of the most preferred materials for the production of bottles and jars, thanks to their lightweight, cost-effective, and versatile properties. Primarily made from materials such as PET, HDPE, and PP these components are used across various industries, including food and beverage, personal care, and pharmaceuticals. Production methods such as injection moulding, blow moulding, and extrusion, allowing the creation of containers with diverse shapes, sizes, and designs. Plastic bottles and jars offer excellent barrier properties, durability, easy colourability and cost effective production whilst also being light weight therefore improving the ease of transportation and the majority are readily recyclable too.

Applications

  • Drinks bottles
  • Cosmetics packaging
  • Food packaging
  • Medical pouches and packs

Closures

Plastics play a vital role in the production of caps and closures, offering a cost-effective, and lightweight solution for sealing containers across various industries using materials such as polypropylene, HDPE, PET and many more. The use of polymers affords caps and closures with diverse designs, sizes, and functionalities, such as flip-tops, screw caps, and child-proof closures. Plastic caps and closures offer excellent sealing properties, maintaining product freshness, and preventing leaks or contamination. Their ease of production, customisation, recyclability, and consumer convenience have made plastics an indispensable material for these products.

Applications

  • Drinks caps
  • Sports caps
  • Tamper evident caps
  • Child proof caps

Cups and Glasses

Choosing a plastic as your material for a cup or glass offers you an extensive range of solutions. With readily recyclable grades, super tough materials and dishwasher safe grades you will be able to find the right base material for you. Using the huge production scope plastics allow for, coupled with the many ways to personalise your product (using colours, effects, labels and printing) plastics are still a popular choice for this appliation. With the renewed focus upon sustainability there are a growing number of biopolymers, bioattributed, recycled and more sustainable solutions which can be considered.

Pails and Containers

Plastics are a go-to material for the production of containers, in part due to their lightweight, durable, and cost-effective properties. Polymers such as polyethylene and polypropylene provide a versatile solution for creating a wide range of packaging solutions across various industries, including food, paint, chemicals, and household items. The design flexibility plastics allow means that features such as handles, spouts, and lids can be integrated into the component. Plastic components such as these offer superior barrier properties protecting the contents from moisture, contamination, and external damage. With the increased focus on sustainabilty, there are bioattributed plastics, recycled materials and biopolymers available.

Applications

  • Paint tins
  • Bulk food packaging
  • Chemical storage

Pallets

Polymers are increasingly used in the production of pallets as they offer numerous benefits over other materials traditionally considered for this application. This is in part due to their cost effective production process and their lightweight however there are many other benefits which are sometimes overlooked. These include the ability to foam them to further reduce weight, to colour them allowing for easy identification, their resistance to moisure and their recyclability. The durable polymers used in these products typically offer a greater lifespan and superior performance when reused due, in part, to being easier to clean.

Applications

  • Internal pallets
  • External pallets
  • Heavy Duty pallet crates
