Stretch Packaging

Stretch packaging is an innovative retail display packaging process that enhances product display. Stretch packaging uses the some of the best features of blister, clamshell, skin and shrink wrapping to provide a high quality packaging process.

The Packaging Factory is experienced in using Stretch Packaging for all manner of products and there are many advantages to using it. This form of packaging is highly secure as it is difficult to open a pack in the shops and remove the item. Also Stretch packaged products can have a security tab that can be sealed within the packaging, if required.

How can Stretch Packaging be used?

Stretch packaging is ideal for any:

  • Bottles
  • Jars
  • Solid items
  • Pressurised containers
  • Aerosol containers

Up to 4 items can be collated together with Stretch packaging. Two or three different windows can be used and stretch packaging offers the option of viewing the items from one side, or from both sides
through the card.

At the Packaging Factory we use unique and customised designs, thus it is very difficult to imitate our product applications. We have won large contracts to package various high profile products for many different well-known companies with Stretch Packaging.


What are the advantages of Stretch Packaging?

Stretch packaging is perfect to enhance display because of the use of crystal clear Surlyn window. This means that the visibility of the product is excellent which is an essential feature to good packaging. The Surlyn film is also outstanding to achieve a good hold on the product. The last thing you want is the product rotating and shifting during transit.

Other benefits include:

  • Improved printed display area over clam-pack alternative – for better graphics impact.
  • Board does not curl and the window does not discolour
  • Tamper evidence as standard on products
  • Easy tear consumer access feature made available during card production

Is Stretch packaging environmentally friendly?

Stretch Packaging was certified as recyclable by the Papiertechnische Stiftung authority in Munich. Our packaging with Stretch Packaging uses a very low material weight, up to 30 % on typical comparisons by a major retailer.
