Leading manufacturer of creative packaging solutions, Ampac recently introduced the E-Z SnackPakTM, its latest flexible format for the single-serve snack food market. The new pouch is a unique alternative to the typical single serve VFFS snack food bag that has been popular for years. It is tetrahedron and transforms into a serving tray upon opening. A pinch and pull at the top will open the pouch, allowing the format to transform into a convenient tray for snacking. A built-in head space adds package support which provides product protection during shipping and handling.
The E-Z SnackPak does not incorporate traditional side seals thus uses up to 25% less material than traditional snack food packaging. It is a simple yet differentiated package that will enable brands to stand out in the snack food aisle.
One of the first flexible packaging formats that transforms from a package into a food tray, it can be used for sweet and savoury snacks, treats and dry foods. It is capable of being gas flushed during filling.
The pouch can be packed into a corrugated shipper with an efficient interlocking pattern, displayed in a shelf-ready carton at point-of-sale providing shelf impact, or packaged in a convenient multi-pack bag. Options for print include barrier and non-barrier as well as rotogravure, flexographic or high-definition flexographic.
“This unique and innovative package is a true differentiator and transforms the traditional snacking experience into a consumer delighter," said Sal Pellingra, Ampac’s VP of Innovation and Technology says, "Its shape, ease of opening and transformation into a serving tray, displays creative functionality and supports on-the-go lifestyles.
