UNIQABLE is a packaging solution that enables customer-tailored optimization of properties such as processability, strength, sealing stability and moisture barrier performance from the material development stage to align with each customer’s packaging requirements.
SÜDPACK offers a broad range of conventional reusable laminates as well as material-efficient, recyclable material structures, covering a wide range of packaging designs and product and machine requirements.
Aluminum-free and mono-material blister packaging designs are being pursued by companies like TOPPAN and IWK Packaging Systems. Meanwhile, ACG is offering an alternative to co-extruded structures with its proprietary lamination-based approach.
Film will replace the previous multi-material structure made with three different types of plastic, which was not recyclable. In addition, the new film offers a 6% plastic weight reduction compared to the previous solution.
Investment in flexible packaging technologies increases capacity for recycle-ready, high-barrier solutions across dry goods, pet food, confections, and specialty markets.
Solution is made possible using a bag made of SIG Terra RecShield, a mono-material film with a newly formulated polymer structure that replaces the conventional multi-layer structure typically used in bag-in-box packaging.
Based on PP and PE mono-materials, these films can be processed on both horizontal and vertical flow pack machines into flowpacks, doypacks (with or without spouts), and block-bottom pouches.
Switching from traditional multi-material flexible packaging to recyclable mono-material packaging supports sustainability but brings unique printing challenges. The right coding technology can render packaging both eco-friendly and high-performing.
