With its sturdy construction and easy handling, the MGBneo⁴ 400 l is the latest addition to the Craemer Group's range of four-wheeled wheelie bins. This container is a cost-efficient solution for medium-sized waste volumes and is suitable for both, municipal waste collection and industrial applications. This innovative and efficient 400-litre model is now available as standard and comes with a variety of lids and insertion systems for different applications.

The Craemer Group has adapted the technology and design of the 60- and 80-litre large wheelie bins (MGB type) to bring them in line with the rest of the MGBneo family. Drawing on proven components from the existing portfolio, the designers have combined them with sophisticated details and user-friendly handling, as well as a contemporary, functional design. Optimised wall thickness and integrated reinforcement in the lower body significantly enhance the bins' stability. Overall, the entire Craemer portfolio of containers now has a completely consistent appearance.

Reliable load carriers are essential for producing, filling, storing and transporting beverage cans. The industry predominantly relies on pallets with special dimensions that are precisely tailored to its requirements – whether for can manufacturing, beverage production, logistics centres or export. These industry-specific solutions are precisely adapted to the stacking dimensions, conveyor lines and lorry loading patterns of the beverage industry and play a central role along the entire process chain. The Craemer Group, a leading global manufacturer of durable logistics solutions, is launching the new “CanPal German” plastic pallet. This innovative, patented product offers an exceptionally robust pallet block design for the safe and sustainable transport of cans. This traditional, family-run company specialises in metal forming, plastics processing and tool making. Based in Herzebrock-Clarholz, Germany, it will be presenting its new CanPal German pallet for the first time at the Interpack 2026 trade fair.

The Craemer Group, a specialist in metal forming, plastics processing and toolmaking, has commissioned its own wind turbine, underlining its commitment to a sustainable energy supply. With a hub height of 163 metres and an overall height of around 250 metres, the turbine is a prominent symbol of this transition and has been supplying green electricity to the company’s plastics injection moulding facility at the inter-municipal Aurea Industrial Park, close to the A2 motorway, since the beginning of the year. Craemer has now officially inaugurated the wind turbine in the presence of around 50 guests from politics and business, as well as business partners and employees.

Plastic pallet boxes with reduced height are used for clear storage, allow quick access to contents and protect sensitive goods. Typical fields of applications include the food industry, fish processing, mechanical engineering and metal processing. The Craemer Group – one of the world's leading manufacturers of durable plastic logistics solutions – has developed the new CB3 Low. Thanks to its extremely stable base, this compact, robust and handy pallet box is specially designed for heavy-duty applications with low-volume requirements. It is also suitable for the safe transport and storage of pressure-sensitive goods. The CB3 Low is set to make its debut at the LogiMAT trade fair in spring 2026.

Demand for sustainable plastic pallets and containers is currently rising steadily. For consumers and companies that prioritise the circular economy and CO₂ reduction, using load carriers made from recyclate is vital. With its main plant in Herzebrock-Clarholz, the Craemer Group – one of the world’s leading manufacturers of plastic pallets and containers – now also produces a high-quality recyclate in-house, powered by renewable energy: Zero Virgin, recovered from used plastic products. This premium raw material is used in the company’s own load carrier production and is also marketed externally. To ensure a continuous supply of Zero Virgin, the family-owned company expanded its storage capacity at the Oelde plant in spring.

SSAB AB, based in Stockholm, Sweden, is the leading steel producer in the Nordic countries and is known for its high-quality flat and special steel products. SSAB Europe, which is part of the group, is one of the largest steel suppliers to the Craemer Group. Craemer purchases a significant amount of high-strength steel for its metal forming business, which produces automotive parts.

By investing in its machinery, the Craemer Group (metal forming, plastics processing, tool making) is meeting the market challenges of the future.

The newly developed E3-5 pallet from Craemer is a robust all-rounder among heavy-duty pallets. For the love of nature and the environment, the German plastics pioneer now offers this load carrier made of durable, high-quality polyethylene (PE) as a Zero Virgin version. This particularly sustainable version is made of 100 per cent recycled plastic. The entire E3-5 series features a robust construction that ensures durability even with frequent use, very high load-bearing capacity and excellent bending stiffness.

Reliable (intra-)logistics systems with professional palletising require durable, practical and economical solutions to store goods and transport them from A to B in a quick and smooth manner, without damage.

Combined with the CC1 pallet collar, it forms a stable, reusable packaging unit.

30 yellow pallet boxes planted with green shrubs create a feel-good atmosphere on the campus of Berlin’s University of Applied Sciences (HTW). They are part of the Tiny Forest Project of the ”House of Transformation HTW Berlin” (HdT), a dialogue centre for all sustainability initiatives and campaigns at the university.

We demand the highest quality from all our products and services. Our latest accolade: the Brose Quality Award 2024. The automotive supplier Brose has honoured us as one of their A-suppliers: for the high product quality of our metal parts and for more than 30 years of good cooperation.

Our metal processing plant in Slovakia is located at the foot of the Lower Tatra Mountains, directly on the Váh River. The scenic location does, however, present us with challenges from time to time. The only paved access road to Craemer Slovakia s.r.o. leads over a narrow concrete bridge with limited load-bearing capacity: a bottleneck for the delivery of large presses such as our new 2500-tonne Schuler press with Twin-Servo technology and a table length of 8 metres (26 ft).

This pallet presents itself as a sturdy all-rounder among heavy-duty pallets: the newly designed E3-5 from Craemer. Like all load carriers from the Germany-based Craemer Group with more than 60 years' experience in plastics processing, it is made of durable, high-quality polyethylene and has a robust construction – which means a long service life, even with a high number of trip rates. Manufactured in one piece, it features a very high load-bearing capacity and excellent bending stiffness. As a result, the E3-5 pallet could become indispensable in the (intra)logistics of many industries in the future.

Transparency and efficiency, flexibility and responsiveness, quality and reliability: these properties are considered to be the key of efficient business relationships – not only in the automotive industry.

“Right now, we have a strong focus on the Swedish market when it comes to waste containers, as many companies are in great need of an environmentally friendly way to dispose of their waste. The goal is to meet the future and EU requirements for all different fractions to be sorted separately, a directive that will come into force on 1 January 2027. This will require a high number of waste containers and an additional supplier on the market,” says Henrik Mogensen, Sales Manager for the Swedish market at Craemer Nordic. “The first tender we won in Sweden was for as many as 70,000 containers. The market is showing a great interest in our products.”

Whether red or white wine – the winemaking family of a small winery in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany, uses the Craemer CB3 High pallet box for their hand-picked “connoisseur wines” and sparkling wine from their own vineyards. Utilised since the fantastic grape harvest in autumn 2023, this large-volume grey plastic box has provided “reliable support for a smooth and gentle process”. An Austrian winery in Styria also relies on a Craemer product – the SB3 pallet box with closed walls.

Robust and sustainable – large waste containers from Craemer meet these requirements. Since the 1980's, the Craemer Group has been manufacturing plastic containers for the waste and recycling industry, for municipalities and industrial applications. The wide range of products is made from up to 90% recycled plastic and is 100% recyclable.
