Hollarts takes care of the plastic injection molding of products. As a one-stop-shop, they transform the customer’s idea into a physical product and they direct the manufacturing of the mould, which they also maintain. In addition, if desired, they take care of the assembly of the product and arrange storage and logistics.

Plastic is the ultimate material for circular application. Not only because plastic is easy to recycle, but also because it achieves an enormous weight reduction. A lighter product ensures less CO2 emissions in both production and transport, without having to make concessions to the quality of the product.

Various sustainable initiatives are also underway to achieve improvements in product and mold development as well as in operation. This includes material developments, investing in energy-efficient moulds, machines, and peripherals. But it is also looking at making the fleet more energy-efficient and completely digitizing the information flows, so that the use of paper is minimized. By developing recycled and bio-based materials to replace virgin materials, they continuously reduce the footprint.

Together with Circular Plastics Alliance, they want to give substance to product and material developments in which they are looking at, among other things, replacing single-use packaging with reusable packaging. In addition, they like to think along in setting up or expanding pool systems to replace systems that currently still use single-use packaging or logistics solutions.
