What Danaflex does
Danaflex is a privately held flexible packaging and film manufacturer founded in 2001, headquartered in Kazan, Russia, with a European production and sales entity (DGPack s.r.o.) registered in Kralice na Hané, Czech Republic. The company operates four production facilities (three in Tatarstan, Russia, and one in the Czech Republic) and is described as the market leader in flexible packaging across Russia and CIS. Its product portfolio spans roughly 20 categories, including flexible packaging for coffee, tea, cocoa, confectionery, spices, baby food, grocery, snacks, pet food, sauces, dairy, bakery, ice cream, meat and fish, hygiene products, household chemicals, and tube laminates, alongside IML labels, shrink sleeve labels, industrial films (polycarbonate, SMC/BMC composites), barrier films for vacuum packaging, and thermally resistant films for medical sterile bags.
The company's technology stack centers on vertically integrated flexible packaging manufacturing: PE/PP film extrusion, flexographic and rotogravure printing, full-color digital printing, metallizing, in-line lamination (solvent, solventless, co-extrusion), wax coating, cutting with promo-coding and perforation, shrink sleeve label production, and pre-made pouch production (zip, spout, scratching, euro slot). In-house R&D develops high-barrier and environmentally friendly materials; a 100% solvent recovery system recycles volatile solvents from the printing process; and the danAble™ sub-brand represents a sustainable monomaterial recyclable packaging line aligned with a Strategy 2030 target of 80% fully recyclable products.
Danaflex generates revenue through B2B direct sales of manufactured flexible packaging and films to FMCG producers (confectionery, snacks, fats and oils, grocery, hygiene, coffee, tea), industrial manufacturers, and medical device companies. GTM is sales-led: direct engagement via phone (8 800 511 90 80) and email ([email protected]), supported by marketing/PR and logistics teams. Distribution is managed through in-house logistics with regional coverage in Russia/CIS and European markets served via the Czech entity. Pricing is quote-based with no publicly disclosed tiers or subscription models. Ownership is private and founder-controlled, with no disclosed parent company, institutional investors, or external funding rounds; the group comprises five wholly owned legal entities (Danaflex-nano LLC as primary, DANAFILMS LLC, DANAFLEX CJSC, DANAFLEX NANO LLC, DANAFLEX ALABUGA LLC in Russia, and DGPack s.r.o. in Czech Republic).
