PROVIDING CUSTOM FLEXIBLE PACKAGING SOLUTIONS

Flexible packaging provides many more benefits than traditional forms of packaging. As materials and manufacturing technology improves, the benefits continue to increase. Some of the advantages of flexible packaging include:

Longer shelf life: Flexible packaging provides extended protection and freshness in food products, especially during refrigeration.

More economical storage and transport: Flexible packaging is thinner and more lightweight than corrugated material and thicker paperboard, making it easier to store and transport.

Less waste: Many flexible packaging substrates require less energy and water to manufacture. They also generate less waste than traditional materials.

Higher visibility: Your flexible packaging can stand out and provide more shelf appeal than your competition, especially when it utilizes the most modern printing technology.

From print quality to protection to marketing, flexible packaging is the best choice on the market today.

CUSTOM FLEXIBLE PACKAGING OPTIONS FOR FOOD AND MORE

The flexible packaging family of products encompasses anything that is nonrigid with an easily changeable shape. Some common examples include stand-up bags, pouches, liners and self-seal bags. Flexible materials are the most popular choice for food products, as they enhance freshness, reduce space and save money.

Although flexible packaging dominates the food industry, it also has a strong presence in retail, industrial, medical and pharmaceutical markets, among many others.

As its name implies, flexible packaging utilizes substrates that can effortlessly change shape. Some examples of the popular substrates in the industry are:

Polyethylene

Vinyl

Polypropylene

Polyester

Products like paper bags, bubble wrap and stretch film also fit under the umbrella of flexible packaging.

One of the most common areas of customization in the industry is printing.
