Story
Our company is a family-owned business, which sees its strategy in customer orientation and continuous development. Starting our operations in 1996 from extruding polyethylene films, Polipaks has progressed to become the largest flexible packaging manufacturer in Latvia. In 2015 we built a brand new production and logistics centre with a total area of 35 000 sq m in Riga suburb, Marupe. The total of 30 mln EUR investment into the new facility and additional production equipment has doubled the company’s production capacity and brought the quality standards to the highest level.
We are currently certified under ISO 9000 and BRC packaging standards, which guarantees our compliance with all of the hygiene and safety regulations and allows us to work with the most demanding European producers of food and non-food products.
The key success factor for our business is people. Today we employ an international team of active and motivated professionals from Latvia and other countries. Heading towards the leading position in the packaging industry, we continuously welcome new members to our core team in order to be even more innovative, creative, competitive and efficient at the time of offering new ideas and products to our customers.
