R&D Department

The idea of our R&D department is to introduce and implement innovative ideas in the FOLPAK Baranowski.

The pursuit of excellence is a continuous journey.
That's why we decided to implement a program to continuously improve our services.
The realized investments have a positive impact on the potential of our R&D department. This allows us to take a broader perspective on the possibility of more efficient use of packaging, which translates into benefits for our customers.

Our high efficiency comes from a proven project management model.

Through well-prepared measures, we can guarantee the optimal application of film FOLPAK Baranovsky and effective packaging model. Our strategy focuses not only on selling products, but also on offering our knowledge, experience and professional technical support.

Customers who work with us are assured that their products are protected in the best possible way.

The company's laboratory FOLPAK Baranowski is constantly investing in high-quality product testing equipment in the laboratory where we can now examine:

All our projects are based on a proven scheme, in which the important points are milestones - their achievement guarantees professional execution of the process. The projects are modified according to the needs of the clients to perfectly match their expectations.
Of the more important studies conducted over the past few years, we can mention:

Refining the film used in agriculture with active ingredients that prevent the proliferation of fungi in agricultural products.

Refining the film used in agriculture with active rodent repellent ingredients.

Developing the optimal composition of film raw materials to increase the film's UV resistance, and much more.

Firma FOLPAK Baranowski is constantly investing in high-quality product testing equipment in the laboratory where we can now examine:

  • Sealability of HOT TACK film
  • Rupture resistance
  • Force at rupture
  • Shrinkage
  • Spot puncture resistance
  • Coefficient of friction
  • Thickness
  • Surface tension
  • Film haze
The knowledge and experience that have been gathered and organized in the Laboratory of FOLPAK are extremely important for the implementation of this investment. The priority of the activities of the Laboratory and the R&D unit is the path to TQM (Total Quality Management). For several years, the strategy of implementing successive stages of quality management systems has been consistently pursued, covering management itself, as well as occupational health and safety issues, environmental policy and social responsibility. In October 2014, the company purchased laboratory equipment to support its planned technology development, including a hot-tack measuring device - a device for testing LDPE heat-shrinkable films - and a friction coefficient measuring device. As of 2020, we have one of the best ESTL stretch film testing devices on the market - the FPT-750. The device is armed with programs for testing all film parameters including: stretchability, puncture force, stickiness, unwinding force and tear. Thanks to this device, we can ensure constant control of the machine stretch films produced and ensure quality repeatability in deliveries to our customers. In 2023, we purchased and put into operation a new Instron device to replace the old one with a small test range.
