Retail Food & Beverage packaging serves three key purposes: to protect, to preserve, and to appear appealing. Through innovative packaging solutions, we are able to achieve and exceed all three goals to provide a packaging product that perfectly meets your needs.

Our packages are designed for end-use application and there are a number of different properties that are often needed in retail food & beverage packaging.

• Sealability: Important to preserving shelf life in products like cheese packaging
• Peelability: Peelable lids are often used for yogurt and other dairy product packaging and lidding
• Toughness & Abrasion Resistance: Important in vacuum sealed packages and valved sealable pouches, often used for coffee packaging
• Long-term Shelf Life: Attribute required for many products, including meat snacks and other snacks.
• Organoleptic Performance: This is very important for pet food and treats with regard to pet sensitivities.
• Optimal Oxygen Transmission Rate (OTR): This is imperative for produce by extending shelf life and the high clarity of the packaging.

Some products we specialize in include:

• Cheese
• Coffee
• Confectionery
• Drink Pouches
• Dry Mixes
• Frozen Foods
• Meat Snacks
• Microwaveable Foods
• Pet Foods and Treats
• Snacks (Nuts, Cookies, etc.)

Like with the Retail Food & Beverage industry, the institutional industry requires their packaging to meet certain requirements and display certain characteristics. Some of the many characteristics that make our packaging solutions ideal for the institutional food & beverage industry are:

• Heat resistance: For hot-fill applications
• Breathability and Gauge Control: This is ideal for preserving and maintaining the integrity of produce.
• Toughness & Puncture Resistance: Often, this is important for packaging frozen
• Durability: When designing liners, durability is very important to the process.

• Boil-In and Heat-In Pouches or Bags
• Frozen Foods
• IBC (Intermediate Bulk Container) Liners
• Powdered Mixes
• Refrigerated Foods
