Food & beverage packages must not only grab consumer attention on the shelf, they must also protect flavor and quality, and secure from leaks. Consumers expect packages to be robust and have a long shelf life, but also to be easy to open and to use a minimum of packaging. Packagers are constantly on the lookout for such a balance – a packaging solution that creates a barrier to oxygen, moisture and UV light but is still appealing, convenient, safe, and easy to use.
