BARKU - Barnstorfer Kunststofftechnik GmbH & Co. KG

Since 1977, BARKU develops and produces plastic products using injection molding and extrusion. The products are also assembled and shipped as complete assemblies. BARKU's proprietary products in the greenhouse sector include the Pad Climate System, Growing Gutters, and other profiles for greenhouses. Today, more than 15,000 tons of raw material are processed annually. The plant at the company headquarters in Barnstorf now covers an area of ​​65,000 m², of which 17,000 m² are covered. More than 150 skilled employees work here in three shifts, utilizing state-of-the-art technology.

Extruded plastic parts

Our injection molding department currently has more than 70 injection molding machines with clamping forces of 200 to 11,000 kN. A wide variety of thermoplastics (including ABS, ASA, PS, PP, PP TV, PP GF, PE, TPE and TPU, POM, PA 6 + PA 6.6 with and without GF or GK, PK and PVC) are molded millions of times into components of reproducible quality up to an injection weight of up to 9 kg. Machines are available for the implementation of articles using the so-called 2- or 3-component technology (different colors or materials, e.g. hard-soft) as well as the insert process (inserting and overmolding metal components).

Injection-moulded plastic parts

Our Injection moulding department has more than 70 injection moulding machines with clamping forces ranging from 200 to 11,000 kN. A wide variety of thermoplastics (i.a. ABS, ASA, PS, PP, PP TV, PP GF, PE, TPE/TPU, POM, PA 6/6.6 with and without GF or GK, PK, and PVC) are moulded in reproducible quality, up to an injection weight of 9 kg. We produce 1-, 2-, or 3-component parts (various colors, materials, and hardnesses) as well as insert moulding (inserting and overmoulding metal components).

Assembly of components

Depending on the application, your assembly consisting of several components will be assembled manually, partially or, if necessary, fully automatically. At BARKU, in addition to the appropriate manual workstations, we also use high-precision fully automatic machines and, in some cases, autonomous systems that operate over entire shifts. Simple form-fitting assemblies, several coordinated work steps and complex joining processes ensure that your application is implemented in a functional and, at the same time, needs-based manner.
