With no shape of its own, a flexible package can adapt readily to its contents then compress easily when it’s time to recycle, sending less to the landfill. Flexible packaging materials are used to create a barrier between your product and the environment —to preserve freshness and block excess moisture, light and oxygen, which can affect the quality of food or medication.
Flexible packaging means using fewer resources to manufacture (including energy) and creating less waste. In addition, lightweight flexible packaging improves transportation efficiency, reducing fossil fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
