In-house plants
We set up next to our clients in order to save resources and drastically reduce the carbon footprint
Transporting part of our production process to the client's facilities implies savings of up to 90% in transport and packaging.
This is a very interesting figure for any business. And an enormous advantage for the planet.
A winning proposal

We plan
Our client sends us their packaging schedule.

We manufacture the preforms
At the main Caiba plants, we prepare the preforms that are used to manufacture the packaging
The preforms are a much more compact intermediate product than the final packaging.

We finalise the packaging
At the in-house plants, we finalise production of the packaging, putting the preforms through the blowing phase so as to give the packaging its final shape.
In some cases, we undertake the entire process (preform and blowing) such as manufacturing containers in integrated machinery.

Transport preforms or transport packaging?
A considerable difference
1 truck can transport over 460,000 preforms
To transport the same amount of finished packaging, we would need 8 trucks
An experienced transformed into a priority
12 in-house plants... and growing
We are working to continue to expand this model because it contributes the most towards reducing the carbon footprint of any product
General Director of CAIBA
One single in-house plant means that in one year, 15 tonnes of CO2 have not been released into the atmosphere
