Uflex Ltd, India's largest flexible packaging company has been bestowed with the Marketing Award in the Food Packaging Category by the Association of Industrial Metallizers and Laminators (AIMCAL). Uflex has bagged the award for a PET/mPET/polyethylene stand-up pouch for chocolates from Cadbury India Ltd.
Uflex Ltd. was acknowledged by AIMCAL judges for creating a pouch with high graphic quality. The pouches are made from a three-ply BOPET film reverse printed by rotogravure/metalized BOPET film/PE film laminate. With a punched hole on the top seal for hanging and press-to-close zipper, these pouches combine the best of convenience with an eye-catchy looks that drew the judges attention.
The judges noted the package design makes good use of the metallization. “The gold really makes the product look rich,” said one judge. “The graphics are mouthwatering,” observed another member of the panel.
The packages created by Uflex incorporate a central layer in the laminate structure which is plasma metalized to significantly enhance the barrier properties of the composite laminate and this substantially extends the shelf-life of the packaged product.
