Semi Rigid Packages are food packaging that provides protection, convenience, and merchandising value for products. They include folding cartons, lined cartons, aseptic cartons, and thermoformed cartons made from flexible packaging materials like paper, paperboard, aluminum foil, and various plastic films. Corrugated fiberboard boxes are also considered semi-rigid packaging due to their protective yet somewhat flexible material.
