Flexible Packaging Solutions

Types of Flexible Packaging

Available as formed and unformed configurations, flexible packaging is dynamic and customizable to fit specific needs. Formed packaging lets you fill and seal the product in-house, while unformed products come in rolls that you send to a co-packer for formation, filling, and sealing. 

Because the flexible packaging material is pliable, it can come in various customizable flexible pouches and styles, including:

• Printed Pouches: preformed, heat-sealed packets printed with product and brand information to bolster your marketing efforts
• Stand-Up Pouches: brandable bags designed to stand upright. They come in various sizes and sealing options, such as pour spouts, sliders, and zippers.
• Sachets: flat, single-use packets commonly used in the pharmaceutical and personal care industry, though they are also ideal for distributing samples at trade fairs. They consist of layered packaging materials.
• Printed Roll Stock: unformed sheets of pouch material preprinted with your branding information. The sheets are bundled into rolls for easy handling as you send them to your contract packer, where they’re formed, filled with products, and sealed.
• Stock Bags: formed, blank pouches that you can use as-is or brand with labels for marketing purposes.
• Custom Packaging Roll Stock: In addition to bearing your company’s branding, these unformed roll stocks can be customized for chemical resistance, puncture resistance, high barrier, or other special requirements.

Flexible Packaging Materials 

At FOCUSales, some of our popular flexible packaging products include:

• Stand-Up Pouches: Colorful, sleek, and versatile stand-up pouches are ideal packaging solutions for food and non-food products alike. The bottom gusset on stand-up bags allows your products to stand on the shelf and catch consumer attention. Solid, powder or liquid products won’t leak, spill, or prematurely lose their freshness in these pouches.
• Flat Pouches: Made from premium-grade films, flat pouches are an attractive way to present your product to the market. These pouches feature clean, crisp images and vibrant colors. Flat pouches are an ideal packing solution for single-serve products.
• Side-Gusseted Pouches: Side-gusseted pouches feature gussets on both sides and a seal at the top, allowing them to stand on a flat bottom. These pouches square out when full to maximize storage space and facilitate easy display. They’re popular with packaging tea, coffee, and cereal.
• Roll Stock: Roll stocks are an incredible way to customize your packaging and branding efforts. These sheets are printed on premium-grade films and branded using superior digital printing technology. Branded roll stocks allow you to create various packaging products at a great price point.

The Benefits of Flexible Packaging 

Flexible packaging comes with myriad benefits, such as:

• Improved efficiency: Since flexible packaging uses malleable materials, the process consumes less base material and less energy to improve turnaround time.
• Eco-friendly: Many flexible packaging materials are reusable and recyclable, and producing them uses less energy than inflexible packaging.
• Customizable package design: Pliable packaging materials enable greater design freedom.
• Enhanced product life: Flexible packaging can be made impervious to UV rays, moisture, dust, mold, and other contaminants. Our packaging products are specially engineered to meet your specific needs and extend shelf life.
• Ergonomic packaging: Flexible packaging lacks the bulkiness of the traditional rigid packets, making your products easy to buy, carry, and store.
• Easier shipping and handling: Lighter products translate to lowered shipping costs—savings you can pass on to your contractors and customers.

Flexible packaging is a cost-effective, more sustainable way to dominate the market. This solution enhances both functionality and aesthetics, ensuring your products stand out to consumers.
