Nefab opens new facility to strengthen sustainable plastic packaging

Nefab, a leader in sustainable packaging and logistics solutions, announced that PolyFlex – Part of Nefab Group, is opening a new facility in Grand Blanc, Michigan. This new site houses sophisticated equipment, enabling PolyFlex to design, prototype, and build tooling for injection molded solutions all in one location. Together with PolyFlexʼs nearby Farmington Hills, Michigan location, which specializes in injection molded packaging solutions for the automotive industry, this new facility fosters collaboration that reinforces Nefabʼs commitment to providing high quality packaging solutions for automotive customers.

“Leveraging the latest technology and boosting our in-house capabilities gives us greater control over costs and timing,” said Darrell Tiedeman, chief operating officer at PolyFlex – part of Nefab Group “With these innovations, we can deliver injection molded tools and other critical components faster than ever, ensuring our customers meet their production schedules without compromise.”

As part of its commitment to sustainability, Nefabʼs closed-loop system for returnable injection molded and thermoformed packaging is designed to minimize waste and enhance sustainability throughout the packaging lifecycle. This year, the company has successfully integrated reground material into its processes, reusing over one million pounds (>450 000 kg) of plastic that would have otherwise ended up in landfills. Once customers finish their existing programs and no longer need their plastic packaging, Nefab offers a credit to buy back the packaging, which is then reground and repurposed for future programs. This innovative approach not only reduces environmental impact but also ensures that valuable materials are efficiently reused, aligning with Nefabʼs mission to deliver sustainable packaging solutions.

Located in Michigan, the “auto capital of the world,” Nefabʼs new facility is ideally positioned to serve the automotive industry, benefiting from the regionʼs dense automotive supply chain and skilled workforce. Nefabʼs returnable packaging solutions offer significant cost savings for the automotive industry by enabling materials to be shipped between suppliers and OEM or power engine plants throughout the vehicle program lifecycle, reducing the need for disposable packaging and lowering overall expenses.
