Relocation to Dandenong South

Megara design and manufacturing team enjoying their new home at Dandenong.

Since our merger with Corex in February this year, the teams at Corex and Megara have been making and executing plans for the smoothest possible assimilation into Corex’s Dandenong South location. These plans were designed to minimise disruption to our valued clients.

We now have most of our Megara team, machinery, and resources at our new home in Dandenong South and are in the final stages of our relocation which will be complete by late January 2023.

Thank you so much for your ongoing support in 2022.

From the teams at Corex, Corex Recycling and Megara, we would like to wish you all a happy and safe Christmas and New Year break. We can’t wait to see you all in 2023 at our new home!

Kind regards,
The team at Megara

Christmas Packaging

Looking for some Christmas Packaging Inspiration?

Throughout the year, our team works on all kinds of projects from POS display, signage, horticultural and customised stationery products.

But during seasonal and special times like Christmas, Easter and Mother’s Day, our design and manufacturing teams gear up to get creative.

Megara specialises in creating unique packaging and GWP (gift with purchase) solutions that communicate the value of your brand. Seasonal occasions naturally bring out our fun and creative best!

With design, manufacturing and recycling all under one roof, it’s not too late to create the perfect customised packaging solution for Christmas.

Designed & made locally from our own polypropylene

It all starts with our 100% recyclable polypropylene made on site at Megara.

We make PROMEG® polypropylene which is stocked in a wide range of opaque and translucent colours including, clear (frosted), white, black, yellow, orange, burgundy, blues, red, greens, greys, silver, and translucent orange, yellow, pink, red, purple, blue, green and grey. We also make custom colours to match your corporate brand colours.

DESIGN: Left: Twist top lolly package. The twist lid design doubles as a serving bowl. Right: Carry bag lolly package with gravity feed opening.

Recycled & Recyclable

Our manufacturing site is truly closed loop. All of our scrap sheet (post-industrial waste) is recycled at Megara, and recreated in a range of different sheet products in our PROMEG ECORANGE®.

We also make a sheet called KERBECO®. As the name suggests, KERBECO® is made from 50% recycled waste that has been collected from kerbside recycling.  It is also a 100% recyclable substrate that you can put into your recycling bin or return to us here, at our plant in Melbourne.

KERBECO® is a white sheet with the odd “recycled fleck” running through it, ready to print and make your brand stand out. What a better way to promote your brand than on an Australian made, sustainable, Carbon Neutral material.

No cookie cutter packaging designs here!

For businesses that have worked with Megara before, you know that our specialist polypropylene industrial designers are second to none. Megara designers are the market leaders in creating bespoke packaging using polypropylene.

Our designers do not just create amazing designs that wow customers, they create designs that maximise materials and sheet yield, minimising waste whilst giving you the biggest bang for your budget.

Megara’s expert design team will work with you to create a sustainable solution that embraces your brand and speaks to your audience.

SHEET: Toffee Apple Red opaque PROMEG®. Sheet co-extruded with white to give it a super vibrant glassy aesthetic.
DESIGN: Twist top with compartment for coasters in the lid.
