Designa – a specialist in plastic

COMPANY DESCRIPTION

Designa is a one-stop shop for converting concepts into complete finished products, from design and drawing to prototyping and manufacturing. For over two decades Designa has been at the forefront of product design and manufacturing of plastic products. Founded in 1992, Designa’s focus was on custom injection moulding. Over the years, the focus of the company has shifted to rigid packaging for the cosmetic industry.

Designa is your go-to South African manufacturer of custom-made plastic tubes for the cosmetic industry for therapeutic creams, gels, beauty products and ointments.

The company offers exceptional customer service and quick turnaround times. Whilst its focus is currently on the expansion of Designa’s tube manufacturing division, it also offers plastic manufacturing solutions for brand owned customers. Customers’ needs are met with over 40 production machines for injection moulding, injection blow moulding and injection stretch blow moulding, screen and pad printing.

NEW PRODUCTS

Driven by innovation, due to the exponential demand for personal hygiene packaging and hand sanitiser packaging products, Designa now manufactures a 24/410 100mℓ HDPE bottle with either a capped spritzer or a flip top cap. This travel size bottle is perfect for handbags, baby bags, vehicles and children’s school bags to ensure that your hygiene products are close at hand. This bottle is available in either natural or white.

CUSTOMISABLE OFFERINGS

Designa still specialises in the manufacturing of plastic squeeze tubes. The company has a complete set-up of machinery offering a comprehensive bulk manufacturing process of plastic tubes for use in cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications. The equipment is geared towards continuous extrusion moulding, heading injection moulding, capping and screen printing. This enables quick turnaround times.

The premium two-layer tubes are manufactured from a polyethylene blend of materials. Designa understands that each squeeze tube is specific to each individual customer’s needs, which is why customers can customise their tube and cap colours as well as screen printing on their tubes, up to four colours with a varnish application. While tube diameters are set, the length of the tube can be adjusted to a customer’s specific needs.
