To meet the rising demand for pet food packaging in North and South America, UFlex is establishing a woven polypropylene (WPP) bags manufacturing plant in Mexico.
As part of the initiative, the RP-1000 platform stood out in the Sustainable Package Design: Package Circularity category for its combination of high-speed form-fill-seal performance, enhanced durability, and full curbside recyclability.
The thermal sealants are constructed entirely of extruded PE with three layers that consist of different polyethylene blends. Layers include a sealant for shaping and sealing, a structural core, and a thermally activated adhesive designed to bond with print web film.
These solutions are focused on improving shelf life, ensuring safety, and streamlining operations, allowing meat producers to reduce costs while maintaining high-quality standards.
