DaklaPack Europe

What DaklaPack Europe does

DaklaPack Group, headquartered in Lelystad, Netherlands, is a European producer of flexible plastic packaging founded in 1975 (originally as Minigrip Nederland BV). Following its 2004 acquisition by the current owner, the company rebranded to DaklaPack and grew from 7 to 350 full-time employees, expanding internationally to operate production facilities in the EU, China (Guangzhou, Hong Kong), and the United States (New Jersey), with sales offices across Germany, Belgium, France, and the UK. Its core offering is in-house developed flexible plastic packaging — ranging from standard envelopes and laminated packaging to fully customized solutions — sold through a dual channel of a self-service e-commerce webshop for standard products and a direct sales force for tailored and specialized applications.

The portfolio extends beyond commodity flexible packaging into sustainable packaging under the Eco-Label Program, laminated and tailor-made packaging, and a regulated medical vertical that includes cleanroom-produced self-sampling kits and clinical trial kitting services. The medical line is anchored by a proprietary data-linking technology used in the Dutch national colon cancer screening program, enabling participants aged 55-75 to conduct at-home tests with secure data connection. Production is supported by an in-house innovation team that tests and optimizes material composition, sealing behavior, and barrier properties, and is certified under ISO 9001, ISO 13485, ISO 27001, and ISO class 6 cleanroom standards. Revenue is generated through one-time product sales (standard packaging) and project-based professional services (customized kitting, filling, co-packing, fulfilment, and clinical trial services), serving food, non-food consumer products, medical/healthcare, and sustainability-focused customers across Europe, North America, Asia, and selected additional markets.
