It uses a combination of materials such as flexible plastics, aluminum, paper, and coating to keep oxygen, moisture and light out – while keeping the product inside fresh, new, and damage free.

However, if you want to research things yourself, check out the table below.<\/p>\n How long is your product going to be in the package? What’s the required shelf life? How important is freshness? These are all important things to ask when thinking about flexible packaging. Consider two examples: Corn Chips vs. Dried Berries. Corn chips are usually packaged in economical medium to low barrier materials because they are generally consumed quickly. Nobody expects chips to have an extensive shelf life and chips are a low margin retail item that must be economically packaged.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n In comparison, dried berries are a more expensive product which require a longer shelf life. They are highly stable and are usually not consumed at one time.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Other Important Considerations for flexible packaging:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Low cost points combined with adequate moisture and oxygen barriers while providing exceptional printability key for snack and food packaging.<\/p>\n Child Resistance, regulatory compliance, adhering to state laws, and art design along with barrier needs. Small retail quantities can benefit from different material selections than wholesale.<\/p>\n Style of pasteurization utilized, Moist versus liquid product. Can be frozen.
