CDF Corporation has announced the launch of a new Form-Fit intermediate bulk container (IBC) liner manufacturing line.

This production line will be strategically housed within the state-of-the-art facility of J Natzan Kunststoffverarbeitung GmbH & Co KG in Lienen, Germany.

Natzan, known for its precision in plastic packaging and custom heat-sealing solutions, will collaborate with CDF in this venture. The partnership underscores both companies’ commitment to delivering flexible packaging innovations.

CDF and Natzan have a six-year history of working together and this partnership reflects their shared dedication to tailoring packaging solutions to meet industry needs.

The initiative is set to become fully operational by the end of 2023, marking CDF’s second European expansion since integrating Quadpak AB into its alliance in 2013.
