Our product specialists will guide you through your options and build a custom flexible packaging solution to suit your product perfectly.
For businesses concerned with their environmental footprint, locally produced, digitally printed flexible packaging is a cost-effective, sustainable option compared to traditional rigid packaging alternatives.

The benefits of digitally printed flexible packaging
A sustainable choice
For many businesses, environmental factors will be the most compelling reason to move to flexible packaging. Flexible packaging requires less water and energy to manufacture and transport and generates smaller quantities of greenhouse gases on its way to market. The product-to-package ratio also means less waste is sent to landfill.
Enhanced shelf appeal
The options and materials available to use in flexible packaging enable many variations that enhance the appeal of your product at the point of sale.
Pouches, sachets and rewind are available in multiple sizes and in a range of materials, including transparent and recyclable materials. Hang holes, tear notches, resealable zips, gussets, matt, gloss, foil – the possibilities are endless.
Superior print quality
Our digital technology enables crystal clear imagery and high-quality consistent colours, including specific hues, fine details and small fonts. Serial numbers, SKUs and barcodes are all sharp, and easy to read and scan.
Multi packs and mulitple SKU's
An increasingly popular option is to offer your customers a variety of sachets or samples in a stand-up pouch. We can provide a combination of flexible packaging options together in one order.
Customisation and variable data
Digital printing allows you to create multiple variations in the same run. Unique product numbers, messaging or QR codes that change from package to package are all possible.
Lower minimum orders
The short runs made possible by custom digital printing, mean less risk and greater cost efficiency.
Faster production times
Digital printing doesn’t require the creation of plates for each new job. This means that designs can be finalised and put into production and delivered to you and your customers much more quickly.
