US-based PAC Worldwide has created the new Pouchjacket line,in response to the needs of its customers for a protective packaging solution for retail/food products.
According to the company,the custom laminated flexible pouches are made with laminated barrier film structures,which protect the contents and extend their shelf-life.
PAC Worldwide special projects manager Tim Magee said many major consumer packaged goods manufacturers(CPGs)are converting their traditional products such as costly jars,bottles,cans and folding cartons to cost-effective pouch formats with fitments,closure systems and easy opening features.
"It is reported that one truckload of pouches is equivalent to 10 to 25 truckloads of rigid containers.Pouches also have far less impact on our environment compared to many bulky rigid packaging,"Magee said.
Available in various styles,the pouches can be printed with up to nine gloss,matte and metallic ink colors on rotogravure and offset printing presses.
Pouchjacket pouches are suitable for food items,pet treats,coffee,tea,pharmaceuticals,cosmetics,agrochemicals,grass,bird seeds,among others.
