Spectra announces deal with flexible tube manufacturer to expand offering

UK based rigid plastics company, Spectra Packaging, has announced a partnership with a Polish flexible tube manufacturer in order to increase its product offering and provide diversity in the market.

By partnering with MPack Tubes, based in Sobiekursk, near Warsaw, Spectra says it is satisfying on-going demand from its existing customers for the company to add flexible tubes to its portfolio.

"Over recent years we have witnessed a shrinking number of suppliers, particularly for flexible tubes in the UK. A number of customers I have spoken with are genuinely concerned by a lack of diversity of choice in the market due in part to on-going mergers and acquisitions,” explained Jonathan Powell, Sales Director at Spectra.

“The opportunity to offer those customers more choice by working with MPack will certainly satisfy a demand and help allay fears of a growing environment of potentially unhealthy competition.”

The new alliance will mean Spectra can provide a range of flexible tubes with diameter sizes ranging from 19mm up to 50mm. Additionally, the tubes can also be offered with a range of decorative print finishes, including flexo printing, off-set printing, silk-screen printing and hot foil stamping. Additional services include tamper evident shrink sleeving and induction heat sealing.
