This enables us to provide you with a comprehensive offer including thermoformed solutions and/or flexible solutions with custom packaging.

Heavy-duty thermoforming with undercutting

Thermoforming with undercut enables technical plastic parts with complex shapes to be thermoformed without destroying the mold. These may include retentions, cavities, grip zones, integrated handles, etc.

This technique adds value and functionality to the part. It can increase stability, enable parts to be stacked in the same direction, or limit pollution. We develop and propose customized studies according to your needs. We then produce the associated prototypes to define and thermoform complex technical parts in great thicknesses (maximum 10 mm).

– Industrie, the show for production technologies and equipment

– Tolexpo, the 100% trade show for sheet metal, tubes and profiles

Velfor at MIDEST 2019

 

This show was an opportunity to present both our new parts and our technical innovations. At Midest 2019, we presented our new products for the automotive, civil engineering, HVAC, robotics and materials handling markets. This is how you were able to discover or rediscover our protection and appearance parts for the transport industry (body parts, bus mirrors, seat covers…), our handling and transport platforms, our slab molds for construction and civil engineering, our air conditioning turrets…

 

We also presented a preview of our latest technical innovations. For example, we showcased thick thermoforming with undercutting. This new know-how enables us to offer you larger, more functional and more complex thick thermoformed parts. This new technology brings real added value to the use of the part. Among other things, it makes parts easier to grip, and gives them more rounded and/or designer shapes.

Velfor diversifies with ISO 8 cleanroom thermoforming

A specialist in the packaging of medical devices and pharmaceutical products for 30 years, Velfor continues to expand in the healthcare sector. Indeed, the group has decided to broaden its cleanroom thermoforming offer by proposing ISO 8 cleanroom production . This enables us to better meet the needs of the pharmaceutical, veterinary and medical-surgical consumables markets.

This new acquisition is the implementation of the company’s strategic choice to diversify into the field of O.E.M. for the healthcare industries. Financially, it has involved heavy investment in order to offer a complete range of packaging solutions.

 

Medical devices manufactured in ISO 8 cleanrooms - Blisters, trays, boxes

 

Velfor is thus responding to the demand from many of its customers to combine the respective advantages of its ISO 7 rooms (very high cleanliness) and its gray rooms (high productivity and great film flexibility), with a new technical offering in ISO 8 rooms. It combines these three features to enable mass production of gas-barrier cushions to standard 13 485.
