In the fast-paced world of food processing and packaging, the container is as important
as the content. At LEO Precision, we believe that “You Ideate, We Shape.” Our mould
engineering expertise is the silent engine driving the food industry, ensuring that
every container is safe, leak-proof, and cost-effective.
How Mould Engineering Powers the Food Industry
Mould engineering is not just about creating a shape; it is about high-speed
performance, material science, and uncompromising hygiene. Here is how LEO Precision
contributes to the evolution of food packaging:
1. Advanced Thin-Wall Injection Moulding (TWIM)
The food industry demands lightweight yet durable packaging to reduce material costs
and carbon footprints. Our engineering team specializes in Thin-Wall Moulds, which
allow for:
-
Reduced Plastic Usage: Creating thinner containers that
maintain structural integrity.
-
Faster Cycle Times: High-speed production to meet the massive
demands of the food supply chain.
-
Energy Efficiency: Optimized cooling systems that lower the
carbon footprint of the manufacturing process.

2. Leak-Proof Engineering & Airtight Seals
Food preservation depends on the precision of the seal. We engineer moulds for
containers and lids with micron-level accuracy. This ensures:
-
Extended Shelf Life: Preventing oxygen ingress to keep food fresh.
-
Tamper-Evidence: Designing specialized closure systems that provide consumer
safety and brand trust.
-
Stackability: Precision-engineered bases and lids for efficient storage and
transport.
3. Food-Grade Safety & Hygiene Standards
Moulds used in the food industry must operate in clean environments and produce
parts free from contamination.
-
High-Grade Materials: We use premium, corrosion-resistant stainless steel (like
S136) to ensure the moulds do not react with food-grade resins.
-
Lubrication-Free Designs: Our engineering incorporates specialized coatings and
designs that reduce the need for grease, ensuring a sterile production
environment.
