Neopac, a global provider of high-quality packaging and dosing applications for pharma, beauty and oral care, has earned a Hungaropack Award from the Hungarian Association of Packaging & Materials Handling. The distinction was bestowed for a novel digitally printed tube developed by Neopac for Herbária, a leading Hungary-based herbal products company.

For Herbária’s popular Marigold Balm, Neopac utilized its sophisticated digital print technology so that smaller, customized runs can be nimbly produced with substantially reduced lead times. The technique applies text and decorations directly to the product’s polyethylene (PE) tube.

The advanced direct digital printing capabilities allow Herbária to stay in stock without over-ordering, limiting materials waste, transportation costs and storage requirements.

The 100ml tubes for Herbária’s Marigold Balm are printed with high-resolution, photo-realistic graphics that vividly portray the product’s regenerative properties – a benefit achieved via the anti-inflammatory effects inherent in marigolds. The balm is the final product in a series-long collaboration between Herbária and Neopac, which is Hungary’s only plastic tube manufacturer.

“We are honored to receive this prestigious award that acknowledges our dedication to developing forward-thinking packaging solutions,” said Csaba Olah, Managing Director at Neopac Hungary Kft. “This recognition is a testament to the hard work and commitment of our entire team, who continuously strive to create solutions that not only meet but exceed the needs of our customers.”
