Why do consumers prefer flexible packaging?

-
Keeps products fresh. Better barrier materials and options in flexible packaging and pouches can make your products last longer, giving your consumers more value for their dollar.
-
Good for the environment. Film materials are evolving rapidly and new options for sustainable substrates are in the market. Couple this with the significantly reduced energy that it takes to make a pouch, pack it, and ship it, and you have a far more sustainable option than glass or metal. Reduce your carbon footprint and packaging waste by considering flexible packaging with your product.
-
Takes less space. Think about your pantry. If you took out all of the rigid containers in your pantry and replaced them with flexible packaging that is malleable, thinner, and smaller, you would increase your pantry space exponentially. Flexible packaging is a great solution to conserve space, not only in our households, but logistically in packaging and shipping. Get more product per pallet and more pieces per carton while making fewer shipments with flexible packaging.
-
Unique and innovative. Flexible packaging is still entering the market. Your package could be the only flexible pack on the shelf in your vertical. You'd stand out among all of your competitors by taking your rigid container and reimagining it into a pouch. Pouches can be die cut into fun shapes and sizes, resealable closures and fitments in liquid pouches can solve consumer problems. Pouches give you 360 degrees of canvas for graphics and colors.

Easy to use. This one is huge. How often have we tried getting all of the product out of a rigid container, but it's too hard to get into the corners? Flexible packaging allows almost a complete disbursement of product. Flexible packaging is portable, light weight, easy to pour, simple to close, and keeps food fresh longer. What's not to love?
