Caspak

What Caspak does

Caspak Products Pty Ltd is an Australian privately-held food packaging manufacturer headquartered in Braeside, Victoria, with regional operations across Australia and New Zealand. Founded in 1993, the company designs and manufactures sustainable flexible packaging — pouches, trays, films, and bone-guard products — for food producers serving meat, seafood, dairy, ready meals, bakery, smallgoods, pet food, and adjacent industrial verticals across 14 markets.

Its product portfolio spans six pouch formats (stand-up, box, side-gusset, retort, vacuum, grab-n-go), the patent-pending Bamboo Fibre MAP tray, PCR PET rollstock (60-80% post-consumer recycled content), the L2025 recyclable shrink lidding film, CasKraft FSC-certified paper thermoforming film, and Casguard waxed or clear bone-guard packaging — for which Caspak has been the only Australian manufacturer since 2014. Core underlying technologies include Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP), mono-material recyclable film structures, bamboo-fibre extrusion, and EVOH barrier chemistry. The company holds ISO 9001:2015, HACCP, FSC and PEFC certifications, and is a signatory to the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation's 2025 National Packaging Targets.

Caspak operates a sales-led, enterprise field-sales GTM through five regional offices (Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Auckland, Christchurch) supported by centralised manufacturing, logistics with over 2,000 pallet bays, a 200kW on-site solar system, and 24-hour new-order processing. Pricing is quote-based on custom packaging solutions, with revenue tied to unit volumes of manufactured hardware (pouches, trays, films, bone-guard). The company appears to be founder/management-owned, with no disclosed external institutional investment and no parent company; Greg Roberts has served as CEO since May 2020 following the founder's transition to an innovation role.
