Vakuum-technik Templin Gmbh

What Vakuum-technik Templin Gmbh does

Vakuum-Technik Templin GmbH is a family-owned German manufacturer based in Heilbronn specializing in custom vacuum thermoforming (Tiefziehverfahren) of thermoplastic polymers and CNC plastic machining. Founded in the 1960s, the company employs approximately 20 qualified staff and serves industrial customers across automotive, general industrial manufacturing, and logistics/materials handling. Its primary output is custom-manufactured thermoplastic parts produced from customer-supplied CAD data, technical drawings, or prototypes.

The company's core technology stack comprises five in-house vacuum thermoforming machines capable of forming areas of 1,200-2,000mm and material thicknesses of 2-14mm, supplemented by three CNC-controlled 5-axis milling machines that deliver precision finishing and complex subassemblies. Material processing covers common thermoplastics including PVC, PETG, PC, PS, ABS, PP, and PE. A differentiated offering is the Variobox Durobox container system, which uses a single customer-specific mold base to materially reduce tooling costs for storage, transport, and assembly applications.

Vakuum-Technik operates a quote-based, project-driven B2B business model with no public pricing. Customer engagement spans product development, consultation, series production, subassembly, and packaging, all conducted in-house. The company is DIN EN ISO 9001 certified and reaches customers through direct, inquiry-led sales via its website contact form and phone/email channels. Distribution is regional (Germany-centric) with a single manufacturing site in Heilbronn; a contact in Pune, India is published on the website, hinting at nascent international activity.

Core offering

Vakuum-Technik Templin GmbH is a custom manufacturer of thermoplastic deep-drawn parts using vacuum thermoforming, complemented by CNC 5-axis milling for precision finishing and complex assemblies. The company processes PVC, PETG, PC, PS, ABS, PP, and PE in thicknesses of 2mm to 14mm across forming areas of 1,200mm to 2,000mm, producing automotive paint protection covers, custom panels, transport containers, pallets, and the proprietary Variobox Durobox system. All production is performed in-house in Heilbronn, Germany, with full service from product development and CAD-based design through to packaging and series production.

Product overview

Vakuum-technik Templin GmbH is a family-owned manufacturing company offering a portfolio of vacuum thermoforming products for industrial applications. The core offering consists of custom thermoplastic deep-drawn parts manufactured on five modern vacuum-thermoforming machines, with optional CNC 5-axis milling for precision finishing. The product portfolio centers on four main categories: Paint Protection Covers (Lackschutze) for automotive, custom Panels (Verkleidungen), the Variobox Durobox container system for storage/transport/assembly, and general Transport Containers and Pallets. All products can be manufactured from CAD data, technical drawings, or prototypes, with material processing of thermoplastics (PVC/PETG/PC/PS/ABS/PP/PE) in 2mm-14mm thickness and forming areas up to 1200x2000mm.

Products and services

• Paint Protection Covers (Lackschutze) High-quality and precisely fitting protective covers for automotive vehicles, designed to prevent paint damage from the first use of the vehicle. Produced using vacuum thermoforming for the automotive industry.
• Panels (Verkleidungen) Custom thermoformed panels for various products available in matt, glossy, or structured surface finishes, providing both aesthetic appearance and protection for industrial applications.
• Variobox Durobox Container System Container system adapted for storage, transport and assembly technology, featuring stable workpiece carriers with deformed base or exchangeable inserts, stackable in Euro pallet-compatible sizes (400x300, 600x400, 800x600, 1000x600) with variable heights. Only one mold base needs to be produced per customer specification, saving considerable tool costs.
• Transport Containers and Pallets Custom-designed transport containers and pallets of various kinds for industrial applications, manufactured using vacuum thermoforming from thermoplastics.
• Custom Thermoplastic Parts Manufacturing Custom-manufactured thermoplastic polymer parts for nearly all industrial sectors, produced using vacuum thermoforming (Tiefziehverfahren) with optional CNC 5-axis milling for complex assemblies. Manufactured from CAD data, technical drawings, or prototypes in materials including PVC, PETG, PC, PS, ABS, PP, and PE with material thickness of 2mm-14mm and forming areas of 1200-2000mm.

Quantifiable outcome

• Considerable tool cost savings through single mold base system
