sicht-pack HAGNER set the course to manufacture transparent packages and thermoformed parts out of PET already in the middle of the 80s.
At that time, sicht-pack counted as one of the most important manufacturers of transparent packages in Germany.
The knowledge and the experience of transparent and thermoformed packages directly contributed to the development of PET films. Meeting a good response to their PET packages, sicht-pack started marketing PET films. In 1991, the first laminating installation for the manufacturing of composite films was put into operation. In 1997, Hans Hagner handed over the management to his son Heinrich Hagner.
On account of the enormous demand for PET films, the enterprise was reoriented. sicht-pack HAGNER concentrated on amplifying its capacities of manufacturing films on the one hand, and on the large-scale production of transparent packages on the other hand so that the enterprise left the fields of folding boxes, circular boxes and self-locking cases.

PET film manufacturing runs smoothly / Extrusion line of Barmag / Investment of 7 m DM


In KUNSTSTOFF INFOROMATION no. 842, we reported in detail about the in-house production of PET films being established at sicht-pack Hagner GmbH (D-7295 Dornstetten/Hallwangen), one of the German market leaders in the field of transparent packages. Hagner being exclusively a processor of films hitherto had already decided a long time ago to start his own in-house production of PET films – namely to replace rigid PVC on grounds of the discussion about PVC in the matter of environment and health. In the meantime, the PET film manufacturing has been running since end of November – without any noteworthy start-up problems. An investment of 7 m DM altogether was made for the buildings, machines and installations. The enterprise has a capacity of 7,000 tons per year. Manufactured are, i.a., films made out of PET, PET-G, PP, PS and "Styrolux" (BASF). The polyester types are of the thickness ranges of 120-1000 µ, the working widths amount to 1.200 mm of usable net width. Besides mono films, co-extruded multilayer PET composites are also manufactured. Hagner to KUNSTSTOFF INFORMATION: "Since the beginning of the production, already 25 m transparent packages out of polyester have been delivered. At sicht-pack, they look upon the new environmental consciousness favourably what is shown by the degree of capacity utilization of the installation. "

The PET extrusion line comes from Barmag AG (Postf. 110240, D-5630 Remscheid 11), who can figure out good chances for further CPET film installations for other midsize film processors on account of its know-how and the " Hagner coup". – Barmag leaflets: "FF Chill-roll installations": KI-no. 24925 – "FFT Flat film installations ": KI-no. 24926.
