The document discusses the shift in the oil industry from rigid plastic bottles to flexible pouches for packaging oils. Flexible pouches offer advantages like superior strength, novel design opportunities, being lightweight for lower transportation costs, and taking up less shelf space than bottles. They maintain product freshness and quality while reducing waste during distribution. Oil pouch packaging provides benefits for both products and marketing, including shelf appeal, branding opportunities, and ensuring quality. Nichrome offers high-speed oil packaging machines like the Filpack Servo SMD and multilane stickpack machines to package oils and other viscous products in flexible pouches.
2. THE SHIFT TO FLEXIBLE PACKAGING
Across the oil industry, whether it is edible oil or engine oil,
manufacturers are always on the lookout for better, more cost-effective
packaging solutions.
Today, many lubricant and motor oil companies have shifted from rigid
HDPE bottles to flexible pouches that provide superior burst and seal
strengths.
The pouches also offer novel design opportunities in terms of closures,
spouts, handles and graphics.
Moreover, pouches are lightweight, enabling ‘last mile reach’ with
dramatic cost reductions in freight.
Flexible packaging also provides a more compact shelf footprint versus
plastic bottles.
These advantages hold true for edible oil packaging as well, especially
for retail packs of 500 ml, 1000 ml or 2000 ml.
