Packaging Films
Metallised high-barrier easy-tear polyester (F-ETB-M) film: The newly developed F-ETB-M film addresses barrier requirements of various pouches and packaging applications while enabling easy-to-tear package properties from both directions. The superior oxygen barrier of this metalised, easy-tear BOPET film makes it the best choice for packaging items like mouth fresheners, tea sachets, confectionary items, biscuits, and multiple pharma and medical products. 

Transparent high-barrier easy-tear polyester (F-ETB) film: The F-ETB film, developed by the Packaging Films research team at UFlex is a next-level packaging solution for items like dry food. Such products require an excellent oxygen barrier for maintaining freshness and easy-to-tear packages. The F-ETB film addresses both these concerns.

Flexible Packaging Business 

Teen Ikka 25-kg WPP top and bottom pinch bag with foil stamping: Teen Ikka is one of the biggest-selling brands of cumin seeds in North India. The product was falling victim to counterfeit practices on a large scale. To help the brand solve this problem more intelligently, UFlex developed the WPP Pinch bottom bag with foil stamping as an anti-counterfeit feature to prevent it from getting re-filled or falling prey to counterfeiting. Moreover, with new packaging that ensures product originality and distinguishes it from fake ones, consumers are not falling prey to counterfeit products.

3D pouch for Dormulin 5-kg vegetative fertiliser: UFlex developed and converted the WPP bag of Dormulin fertiliser into a 3D pouch for a 5-kg product quantity in Q4, FY23. This enhances the product’s packaging aesthetics and the packaging design for better display and appeal.
