Pouches

Today, an estimated one-third of food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted, equivalent to 1.3 billion tons of food every year, according to the Save Food report by the Food & Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. Plastic packaging can help to reduce food waste by protecting the quality and extending the shelf life. Pouches are a very efficient way of packaging food. Besides this pouches are a good alternative for cans or glass packaging: they have the best carbon footprint with equal performance. 

In Asia there is already a changing trend from rigid to flexible packaging. High mechanical strength, transparency, seal through contamination and no leaking become important key requirements, due to the challenges in handling and logistic.
