When conventional lightweighting reaches its limits.
G4Foam
Lightweight injection moulding technology
We are here to help you go further.
Packaging manufacturers are under increasing pressure from brand owners and customers to reduce material, control tax exposure and improve production economics.
Many products have already been taken as far as conventional lightweighting allows. Removing more material can compromise stiffness, top-load or product integrity. G4Foam provides another engineering option when the obvious routes have been exhausted.
Thermal insulation
Engineered rib structures can provide improved thermal insulation for hot and cold beverage cups and food containers.
REDUCE MATERIAL COST
Use less polymer where the product can support it.
IMPROVE PRODUCTION ECONOMICS
Potential to shorten cycle time and improve hourly output.
RESPOND TO TAX & REGULATORY PRESSURE
Support lighter, mono-material packaging strategies.
