CDF Products for Drums & Pails
A smart alternative to traditional packaging, the Cheertainer is an innovative, flexible package that flattens the competition. It is a gusseted, form-fit multi-ply bag that gives you the best of both worlds; the flexibility of a bag-in-box, as well asthe benefits of a rigid container.
Cheertainer® Bag in Box
The Cheer Pack is a flexible pouch for packaging liquids, such as food, beverages, cosmetics, industrial inks and gels, etc.
Cheer Pack® Consumer Packaging
CDF manufactures intermediate bulk container liners using the most advanced technology in the industry.
