Automated packaging machines make packaging easy, clean and quick - whether it’s a medical cream, paste or gel. Why go for flexible pouch packaging for gels? Flexible pouches are better for gel packaging because they: - Are lighter and provide increased portability for end-users - Need about 60% less plastic than traditional packaging - Require less energy to produce - Emit less CO2 and produce less landfill waste material - Allow for efficient and economical transportation

GEL YOUR
PACKAGING
WITH
NICHROME
When you are deciding on a liquid pouch packaging machine, it is
essential to discuss your packaging requirements with your
packaging machine manufacturer. These include:
In the case of gel packaging, viscosity has a considerable
effect on the rate at which the liquid/gel travels, how
long it takes to set in place, and the time it takes to insert
the fluid into flexible packaging.
Viscosity
Viscosity reduces when viscous products are heated,
allowing them to flow more easily. Hence when deciding on
the filling system, the temperature at which the liquid is filled
is of critical importance. Fill Temperature
The packaging material you choose should furnish a
reliable barrier to protect against external elements that
may end up spoiling your product like dust, moisture,
oxygen et al.
Protection
Customers of today expect in-depth and authentic
information about the product and its usage on the pack. This
calls for a packaging machine that facilitates this critical
requirement and also presents your brand to the world. Printing
