A new milestone for Ongropack

A new milestone for Ongropack

2026. 04. 10.

An investment worth EUR 8.19 million has been inaugurated at the Szirmabesenyő site of the 100% Hungarian-owned Ongropack Kft., further strengthening the company’s market position in Hungary’s plastics industry.

Ongropack Kft. was founded in 1994 and is the only PVC sheet manufacturer in Central and Eastern Europe. With its foamed sheet products, Ongropack is at the forefront of the European market and ranks among the top 5 manufacturers in Europe based on sales volume.

At the heart of the project is a new, modern, high-performance sheet production machine that increases manufacturing capacity by around 60%. The new technology significantly improves productivity and the operational efficiency of the plant.

Alongside the machinery investment, the company also constructed a new warehouse hall and implemented an energy efficiency upgrade at the site. The installation of a heat pump contributes to a significant reduction in gas consumption, meaning that beyond expanding production capacity, the investment also supports more sustainable operations.

The company has also taken significant steps in the field of sustainability, demonstrated by its 1.7 MW solar park and the recycling of 98% of the waste generated during production. At the same time, Ongropack places strong emphasis on developing the future workforce, maintaining dual education partnerships with vocational institutions and the University of Miskolc.

Between 2014 and 2025, a total of 86 positive investment decisions were supported by HIPA in relation to plastics industry projects, including those under the VNT and Factory Rescue programmes. These investments represent a total volume of nearly EUR 825 million. The projects are expected to create close to 3,400 new jobs, while more than 10,600 jobs have been preserved through initiatives supported by the VNT and Factory Rescue programmes.
