The new thermoforming machine boosts capacity and flexibility for food packaging in the MENA region

Kiefel has commissioned another SPEEDFORMER KMD 78 Smart at EL KEKHIA PLASTIC. The Egyptian packaging manufacturer is now producing a wide range of food packaging at its Cairo site – faster, more efficiently, and from a broader choice of materials.

More efficiency in production

The KMD 78 Smart enables EL KEKHIA PLASTIC to produce visually appealing clamshells and punnets for fresh fruit and vegetables as well as PET egg cartons. Thanks to high output and short tool changeover times, the company can now serve its customers in Egypt and across the MENA region even more reliably. The new system also supports the use of recycled materials and sustainable raw materials such as PET.

A partnership with a future

EL KEKHIA PLASTIC is one of Egypt’s leading packaging manufacturers and is committed to long-term growth.

The Kiefel KMD 78 Smart is an investment in reliable technology with an attractive machine package that gives us greater flexibility and competitiveness.

Mohamed Ali, Supply Chain Manager at EL KEKHIA PLASTICS

For Kiefel, the installation marks another step in actively shaping the future of packaging together with partners.

Outlook

The collaboration with EK Group highlights the importance of powerful thermoforming solutions for regional and export markets. Flexible systems such as the KMD 78 Smart support our customers in meeting increasing demands for efficiency and sustainability.
