Material savings
Less material, same strength
Maximum efficiency through
intelligent material usage
Bekum sets the standard in material efficiency. Thanks to our high-precision spiral mandrel extrusion heads and advanced multi-layer technology, we significantly reduce material usage – without compromising quality or strength. Thin-walled packaging with uniform layer thickness and high recyclability is our standard.
Less is more –
Bekum reduces material use and costs
Efficient colour change – less waste
Thanks to our spiral mandrel heads, colour changes are quick and efficient. Optimized material flow reduces setup effort and ensures minimal production waste – without long downtimes.
More recycling, lower costs
Our technology enables seamless integration of recycled materials and fillers like chalk. Reduce virgin material, cut costs, and boost sustainability.
Spiral mandrel extrusion heads for perfect layer distribution
Bekum uses ultra-precise spiral mandrel heads to ensure uniform layer thickness across the entire container. Melt flow is precisely controlled, maintaining wall thickness even in complex shapes – for maximum strength with minimum material. The technology also enables barrier and recycling layers, creating durable, lightweight, and sustainable packaging. Faster colour changes and reduced setup time further boost efficiency and flexibility.
Strong and light – a perfect balance
Bekum’s spiral mandrel heads ensure precise wall thickness control and even material distribution. Thin-walled packaging is produced with minimal material – without sacrificing stability or quality.
Less weight, same strength
Optimized wall thickness, structured surfaces, and tailored geometries allow plastic products to retain full functionality and strength with less material. Bekum supports you from product development to production-optimised design – for maximum savings with full performance.
Uniform wall thickness for maximum stability
Our advanced spiral mandrel extrusion heads enable production of thin-walled packaging with reproducibly an even-layered thickness. Even under high pressure, stability remains constant – a real advantage for industrial use.
Faster colour change for greater efficiency
Colour changes in record time – optimised flow and precise control allow fast transitions without waste. This saves time and significantly lowers production costs.
Precise wall thickness control for material savings and product quality
Smart nozzle ring control dynamically adjusts wall thickness during blow moulding – for even layers and maximum stability. This not only reduces material use, but also improves cooling and cycle times – boosting production speed and cutting costs.
Even complex shapes can be reproducibly manufactured – error-free and without scrap. Bekum tech ensures wall thickness is never exceeded or undershot – for consistent quality and maximum process security.
