What Moens Mouldings does

Moens Mouldings B.V. is a privately held Dutch family business founded in 1935 and headquartered in Beverwijk, Netherlands, that designs and manufactures custom plastic rigid packaging for European food and consumer-goods customers. The company employs 51-100 people across two manufacturing sites in Beverwijk and operates with a sales-led B2B model in which packaging specialists engage customers directly on bespoke packaging challenges. Its primary segment since the 1970s is the food industry (with named customers including Remia and Gouda's Glorie), supplemented by a secondary non-food segment (including consumer brands such as Air up).

The company's core technology stack centers on injection moulding, with the proprietary Injection Compression Moulding (ICM) technique developed in-house since 2014 enabling wall thicknesses as low as 0.25mm and cycle times of 1.28 seconds. This is supported by a patented in-house robotic IML system (developed since 1995), a proprietary simulation software for design optimization, advanced 3D metrology with 0.001mm measurement accuracy, and a modular mould and robot architecture that scales with customer volumes. Products span custom containers and lids, food and non-food packaging, reusable cups (200-500ml), and bio-based polypropylene materials.

Revenue is generated through quote-based custom packaging sales with multi-year contract manufacturing arrangements, rather than disclosed list pricing or catalog sales. The business is supported by certifications including BRCGS (food safety), ISCC/ISCC++ (bio-based materials), and EcoVadis (sustainability, 2023), and by a 2024 strategic partnership with KIDV validating its implementation of all six R-strategies. The company positions itself as a European pioneer in IML packaging rather than the largest player, emphasizing innovation, in-house engineering, and sustainability outcomes (e.g., 30% transport-cost savings, 17% lighter packaging, 25% improved stackability) over scale.

Core offering

Moens Mouldings manufactures custom plastic rigid packaging — containers, buckets, cups and lids — designed and produced in-house using injection moulding and its proprietary Injection Compression Moulding (ICM) technology. The company serves primarily the European food industry (food-safe packaging such as margarine tubs and butter cups) and secondarily non-food customers, with all packaging built as 100% recyclable mono-material solutions (including bio-based polypropylene). Supporting capabilities include in-house patented robotics, proprietary simulation software, 3D metrology, and modular mould systems.

Product overview

Moens Mouldings is a European Plastic Rigid Packaging specialist offering custom packaging solutions. The core offering centers on custom-designed injection moulded plastic containers, buckets, cups, and lids. Key capabilities include Injection Compression Moulding (ICM) for ultra-thin walls (0.25mm), proprietary simulation software for design optimization, and in-house developed modular robotics and mould systems. Products include reusable cups (200ml-500ml), food/non-food packaging, and Bio-Based PP materials. All packaging is 100% recyclable mono-material. Services are supported by 3D metrology for quality control and a fully automated Metrolink material transport system.
