Thermoformed Trays & Blister Packaging

.Ist das alles die gleiche seite?

Thermoforming shapes plastic sheet into trays, blisters, and inserts that hold and protect a product. The suppliers below produce formed packaging for food, pharmaceutical, and industrial goods, including sealed and modified-atmosphere formats and product-specific inlays.

What thermoformed packaging suppliers provide

Suppliers in this category form rigid and semi-rigid packaging from plastic sheet. The scope covers food trays for fresh and processed products, sealed and modified-atmosphere formats, pharmaceutical blisters, clamshells, and thermoformed inlays that position components inside a carton or transport container. Materials range from PET and rPET through PP and PS to multilayer barrier films and, increasingly, mono-material structures chosen for recyclability. Many suppliers build their own forming tools and offer tray design as part of the service. Core competence lies in matching material, wall thickness distribution, and sealing behaviour to the packing line and the shelf-life requirement. In the pre-selection phase, compare which materials and barrier structures a supplier runs, whether tooling is made in-house, and which food-contact or medical documentation they provide.

Relevant standards

Plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with food fall under Regulation (EU) No 10/2011 within the framework of Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004; good manufacturing practice is covered by Regulation (EC) No 2023/2006. Packaging suppliers to the food chain commonly hold BRCGS Packaging Materials or FSSC 22000 certification alongside ISO 9001.
