About thinkpac

Change worth making

Soft plastic plays a critical role in modern operations. Yet despite growing awareness and intent, most packaging decisions still default to virgin plastic — often because verified, practical alternatives are difficult to access.

In Australia alone, we use almost 70 billion pieces every year, with 84% sent to landfill. It represents more than just waste, but wasted potential.

For Founder Calvin Ng — a second-generation entrepreneur whose family helped pioneer soft plastic manufacturing in the ‘80s — he saw firsthand that the world had changed.

The material that once symbolised innovation and success had become not only a risk to the environment, but to entire industries. Rather than continuing to add to the problem, Calvin chose to reshape it.

Circularity that
works in practice

Building on 40+ years of manufacturing expertise and 20+ years of recycling post-consumer soft plastics, thinkpac operates within existing waste systems to give materials a second life.

Our approach is intentionally practical:

• Reduce reliance on virgin plastic at the source
• Work within real operational constraints
• Back sustainability claims with verification and data

This is not about perfect systems or future promises.

It’s about measurable progress that businesses can implement now.

ReCree8®, verified recycled resin,
not assumptions

At the core of thinkpac’s circular model is ReCree8®, our branded post-consumer recycled (PCR) resin.

ReCree8® is made from 100% post-consumer soft plastic, independently authenticated by GECA, and used across selected thinkpac product ranges. It enables partners to reduce reliance on virgin plastic while maintaining performance equivalence and compliance confidence.

Built by people who understand manufacturing

thinkpac is part of a family business group with deep roots in manufacturing and recycling.

Our founder grew up around production floors, warehouses, and supply chains — gaining first-hand exposure to how packaging is made, used, and managed at scale.

Today, that experience spans three generations, reflected in a business built on continuity, accountability, and long- term thinking.

This background shapes how thinkpac operates:

• Practical decision-making grounded in real operations
• Respect for performance, reliability, and cost pressures
• Responsibility to build solutions that endure beyond short-term cycles
