Masterpak has made polyethylene film in Zouk Mosbeh since 1974 and is part of the INDEVCO Group's plastics division. Its plant co-extrudes PE film, which means several layers are extruded together so each film can combine strength, clarity or UV resistance as needed. Agriculture is the core of the business: greenhouse covers, soil disinfection film, mulch film, silage covers, low tunnel film, grapevine covers and banana bunch covers. The company also supplies films for building and construction, food and beverage, tissue and hygiene packaging, soap and detergent, and general industrial use, sold under brands including Agrow and Corepak. A 2017 company release put the plant at 280 employees and 30,000 tonnes of annual capacity, and Masterpak exports to Europe, the Gulf, Africa, the Americas and Australia. The site runs partly on solar power and offers plastics recycling services.
