Benefits of Flexible Consumer Packaging for Household Items
Brands offering diverse SKUs in the world of household products choose flexible consumer packaging because it offers significant benefits over conventional, rigid packaging, including:
Package-to-product ratio: Excess empty space in packaging can frustrate consumers and reduce a product’s perceived value. Flexible consumer packaging maximizes space efficiency, often allowing for more product in each package. It is also a lot lighter than traditional packaging, which can lower per-unit shipping costs and increase pallet density.
Barrier Protection: Even the most durable corrugated packaging can still be damaged by moisture. Flexible consumer packaging, on the other hand, is great at protecting products against moisture, air, and other contaminants. It can also be manufactured to resist punctures and tears.
Versatility: While traditional packaging limits what shapes it can be formed into, flexible packaging can be engineered in a variety of different ways. This includes bags/pouches, rollstock, reclosable packaging, and more unique options.
Impactful Designs: High-def digital and flexographic printing offer eye-catching graphics directly on the substrate.
Engineered With Household Products in Mind
PPC Flex offers a range of flexible consumer packaging options, suitable for a variety of different household products. From pouches and bags to rollstock and reclosable selections, we’ll work with you to determine the most suitable flexible packaging format for your needs. Below we dive deeper into how we engineer our packaging to suit household products.
Liquid Products
Laundry detergent, liquid cleaning solutions, and personal care items demand packaging with strong seals and puncture-resistance. We manufacture flexible consumer packaging with high-durability sealants and bond laminates so it can withstand the intensity of filling, distribution, and consumer use.
Powders & Granules
Electrostatic buildup, particles seeping through seals, and moisture penetration are common challenges when it comes to packaging for powder products. PPC Flex meets these challenges head-on, developing packaging with tight-sealant films as well as surface treatments to contain the product from filling to getting in the hands of customers.
Chemicals
Household products such as cleaning solutions often contain chemicals that can harm consumers if the packaging leaks. To prevent this, our engineers rigorously test flexible packaging for chemical products to ensure a strong barrier and confirm that the contents will not degrade the packaging over time.
