Welcome to Packaging Technology!

   
  For some it might be surprising to find a course of packaging technology on a media oriented university, but packaging is so much more than a simple brown box. Nowadays packaging plays a vivid role as communication tool and therefore as media.

Packaging has to be designed, developed and printed. The production of good and functional packaging needs creativity, constructive thinking and abilities and economical sensitivity.

Packaging is very present in our daily life and is necessary to serve the increasing needs and wants in a globalised economy and society. In order to satisfy the customer, packs are unifying ideas of marketing, design and advertising on the one hand and packaging technology with its matter of chemistry, physics and machine technology on the other hand.

  Therefore it is likely that this course is placed at the university of applied science.

The course was founded in 1972 based on the existing course for printing technology. Even today there is a close relationship to this course and consequently the printing technologies and their packaging application are important topics of the studies.

The following pages lead through all interesting topics regarding the course of packaging technology. If there are any open questions do not hesitate to contact via
