Floor Plan

Bischof + Klein is a leading European full-service supplier of flexible packaging and technical films, and is active around the world with a strong network of sales offices. B+K employs a total of around 2,200 staff at six production plants in Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Poland and Saudi Arabia.

Bischof + Klein's product range encompasses the entire range of flexible packaging – from traditional industrial packaging and consumer packaging to special films for technical applications.

B+K manufactures its products using state-of-the art systems for mono/co-extrusion, gravure/flexographic printing, solvent-based/solvent-free lamination and coating plus for extrusion lamination and coating. Highly-developed conversion technology with product-specific facilities for sealed, welded and adhesive designs enable individual production according to customers' wishes. All processes for manufacturing flexible packaging are bundled under one roof at the Group's headquarters in Lengerich. Packaging and films for high-purity products are manufactured in an internal clean room production facility.

Long-term, successful relationships with many well-known customers confirm the company's philosophy, which lives from this vision: we want to become the market's first choice for flexible packaging and technical films.

As a family-run company, Bischof + Klein pursues a globally-oriented corporate policy. The principle of sustainability, which demands ecologically and socially responsible management with consideration of future generations, forms the focal point of B+K's corporate activities.

PowFlex

Optimal Ventilation

B+K PowFlex® Premium is a highly-ventilatable and sift-proof packaging solution for finely powdered products which offers additional advantages during printing and in the filling process.

New Design

For example, the new design leads to better and longer residual ventilation even during onwards transportation and stacking onto pallets. Dust emission and soiling have been further reduced thanks to new technical options for designing the ventilation channels. Measurements during production guarantee the desired air permeability value.

Cost Advantages

B+K PowFlex® Premium offers significant cost advantages in comparison with paper valve sacks. The unfilled packaging reduces transportation costs by up to 65 percent and storage costs by up to 80 percent. In comparison with a normal packing scheme for empty paper sacks, a pallet is able to carry five times the quantity of B+K PowFlex® packaging units. The sack filling capacity of the machine technology which is used is also significantly increased. Turning the sacks after filling is no longer necessary.

New Marketing Options

Since ventilation takes place via a separate infeed strip on the upper side, this is now suitable for high-quality printed images (pattern repeat or random printing). With its high printing quality, diverse film colours, glossy or matt films, various surface structures and different laminate structures, B+K PowFlex® Premium offers entirely new presentation and marketing options.

Product’s life increased

This plastic packaging offers considerable advantages in comparison with paper packaging, particularly for mixtures containing cement. The film packaging reliably protects the content from the elements – without protective packaging. This significantly increases the product's life. The film enables secure and clean transportation due to its high dart impact resistance. B+K PowFlex® Premium is also outstandingly suitable for other hygroscopically sensitive products such as chemicals or foodstuffs in powder form
