Not just looks, but above all performance
For this reason, samples, tests and repeatability checks play such a large role before full rollout. At Mardruk we do not want to rely on random assumptions, which is why we focus on control, the laboratory and verifying materials in practice. This approach gives the customer greater confidence that an approved sample will not turn out to be a one-off exception, but a genuine benchmark for later production.
Modern food packaging must keep pace with market change — PPWR
The market is turning ever more strongly towards better-engineered materials, which is why modern food packaging is increasingly designed with recycling, mono-material structures and new legal requirements in mind. PPWR — the EU regulation on packaging and packaging waste, which entered into force on 11 February 2025, with its main provisions starting to apply from 12 August 2026 — matters a great deal here. It means that companies should already be looking at packaging not only through the lens of current needs, but also of future market requirements.
At the same time, simply choosing a new material is only the beginning, because every pack still has to be properly matched to the product, its shelf life checked and its convenience in everyday packing confirmed. That is why, at Mardruk, we combine material development with a practical approach to rollouts, so that modern food packaging is not only in line with the direction of change but, above all, effective in day-to-day production.
On-time delivery and flexibility
At Mardruk we understand this need well, which is why we focus on efficient action and an individual approach to every project. The standard lead time can be two to three weeks, but in situations that call for a fast response we can act considerably more efficiently, and we can also store materials or finished products for the customer's future needs. For many companies this is real production insurance and greater comfort in planning.
A safe rollout
We do not compete on the promise of chance savings, but on value that really matters in day-to-day work. We combine advice, flexibility, quality control and real support at the testing stage, so that the customer can be sure they are ordering a ready-to-use solution, not an experiment. This way of working translates into fewer problems, greater repeatability and calmer production management.
If you are introducing a new material, samples and a test on your own machine are the simplest way to avoid losses on a large run.

Frequently asked questions
Modern food packaging refers to solutions that combine product protection, packing convenience, aesthetics and a fit with current market requirements and regulations.
Because it affects not only the safety and shelf life of the product, but also production efficiency, the quality of display and the company's readiness for the market's changing requirements.
Increasingly yes, because the market and new regulations, including PPWR, are steering producers towards packaging that is better suited to recycling and more thoughtfully engineered.
You need to take into account the type of product, the required level of protection, the storage conditions, the packing method and how the packaging behaves in day-to-day production.
It is worth checking the build quality, production repeatability, support at the rollout stage, on-time delivery and the ability to match the solution to the company's real needs.
