About us
Krumbeck Kunststoffverarbeitung GmbH was founded in 1969 in Stadtlohn and produces films for the packaging industry. The product range includes three-layer PET-A, PET-G and S-PET films with improved sealing properties as well as rigid PVC films in virgin material and recyclate. In addition, biodegradable PLA films made from renewable raw materials are offered. The standard films contain on average more than 80 % recycled material; the basis of the business is the reprocessing of punching scrap from packaging production into thermoforming films. On a site of more than 30,000 m² on Von-Ardenne-Straße, around 11,000 m² of hall space is available; a production line invested in 2017 achieves a daily output of almost 50,000 kg of film at optimal dimensions. With more than 30 employees, annual production amounts to approx. 12,000 tonnes. Special colours are available from 1,000 kg according to customer requirements.
