Flexible packaging refers to a versatile and lightweight form of packaging that is designed to protect and preserve various products. It encompasses a wide variety of materials, such as plastic films, laminates, and foils, which can be easily molded and shaped to accommodate different shapes and sizes of items. This type of packaging is widely used for food products, beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and more. One of the major advantages of flexible packaging is its ability to extend the perishable good's shelf life by providing a barrier against oxygen, moisture, and light. Additionally, it is cost-effective, as it typically requires less material than rigid packaging options, reducing transportation and storage costs. Its flexibility also allows for creative and eye-catching designs, making products more appealing to consumers. Moreover, flexible packaging is environmentally friendly, as it often uses less material and generates less waste compared to traditional packaging methods.
