Teknik Plastik and Thrace in IML tubs jv
In an unusual cross-cultural cooperation, Turkey's Teknik Plastik (www.teknikplastik.com), Istanbul, has founded a joint venture with Greek tub manufacturer Thrace Plastics (www.thraceplastics.gr), Xanthi, to produce injection moulded tubs for ice cream, cheese, margarine and chocolate, using the IML (in-mould labelling) technology. This follows a recent PC water bottles joint venture agreement between Thrace and Watertek (www.watertek.com.tr), which belongs to Teknik Plastik and Capsnap Europe (www.capsnap.at), Kremsmünster / Austria, to produce PC water bottles in Greece.
