Flowpacks with the characteristic fin seams, appeal thanks to their one hundred percent airtightness and extraordinary stability which enables a sales-effective product presentation at the point of sale.
Hugo Beck's continuous flowpack machines flexibly process both film and paper, as long as a coating of some type, such as PE or cold glue, exists to provide a seal.
Depending on the country, the percentage up to which plastic-coated paper is still recyclable, varies significantly.
Whether aluminium composite films, Tyvek®, cellophane film, register printed films or film coated paper, everything is possible here as air-tight flowpack packaging with high barrier protection. Products such as face masks, various bandages, ovulation, drug and alcohol tests, wet wipes, pipette boxes, medical tubes, etc. are thus perfectly protected from sunlight and oxygen penetration.
