Pet Food
The fastest growing segment in flexible packaging and pouches is pet food. Pet food utilizes all types of pouches. Smaller treat pouches are typically in press to close or slider stand up pouches. Larger, main meal bags are usually in quad seal side gusseted bags. Palletizing, using the pouch design as a billboard, and more capacity are all important features that contribute to the rapid growth of flexible packaging in this market.
A unique soon to be released feature will be slider zipper quad seal pouches. This feature has been very popular in other countries such as Europe and is gaining ground here is the United States as more and more pet food manufacturers are looking to stand out from their competitors. This feature utilizes a specially designed Pactiv Slide Rite exposed slider zipper with end clips for better retention than the standard slider. This is a full width opening feature that allows the consumer increased access to the package with the re-closeability of smaller pet food packages.
