We’re a leading producer of rigid plastic products and capable of developing and manufacturing custom products and components for several industries in the local and international market.

As a strong supporter of the circular economy, we have made great strides in many areas of our businesses towards closing the manufacturing loop ourselves. We welcome EPR schemes to ensure that more recycling does take place, and that less waste goes to South Africa’s landfill sites. It is our responsibility as a company that upholds its values and acts as a good corporate citizen to support proactive initiatives such as this, and to encourage compliance.

Mpact has been contributing to EPR by means of a voluntary levy, for several years and is an existing member of Packaging SA, Plastics SA, SAVA and Vinyl Loop, and the following Producer Responsibility Organisations (PROs):

  • PETCO (PET)
  • Polyco (HDPE, LDPE, PP)
  • COPCO;
  • And the Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment (DFFE)

Our lifecycle approach focuses on design requirements, filling line requirements, brand positioning, environmental considerations, supply chain requirements, costs, product preservation, shelf life and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) parameters.

We expertly design packaging that optimises innovation, environmental benefits, performance and product-material ratio whilst being fully compliant to sustainable design principles.

Our team drives innovation using the latest computer-aided design and model-building technology to ensure that all parameters are met before packaging arrives on the retail shelf. We continually evaluate the balance between customer requirements and Reduction, Reuse and Recycling.

Custom designs

Our custom design offering starts with exceptional designs and ends with a packaging solution, in as little as two weeks!

Our team is widely respected for their expert knowledge about Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) schemes. This allows us to create accurate content to engage with the industry at large and eliminate the legacy of misinformation in order to promote real-time, smarter sustainable solutions and comply with regulation.

Our university affiliated, state-of-the-art Research and Development Centre, based in Stellenbosch, ensures the latest packaging-related food safety standards and EPR regulations are adhered to. Through this valuable resource, we are able to engage and guide our customers through a journey of EPR compliance. Furthermore, our Research team places a continuous focus on food safety standards, ensuring that all our packaging is safe for direct food contact.

Our packaging is manufactured to stringent health and safety standards. We are committed to providing a safe and healthy working environment for all employees, contractors and service providers.

The principle of “zero harm” is entrenched at each of Mpact Plastics’ operation with compulsory safety, health and environmental training programs for all employees, contractors and visitors.
