UFlex has won the awards in the following categories at Flexible Packaging Achievement Awards 2020:
All six panels of the bag are printed and can be made of different substrates. For convenience, the bag can be carried from a top handle while its re-closable option allows easy dispensing of the product, through the zipper.
The bag adds a fourth dimension to the product making it a unique 4-side flat flexible packaging that offers luster and barrier properties of the film, on one hand, and prominent carton like display, on the other.
FlexiTube for Bio Creative Labs USA – The three variants of Super Foods Natural Hair Care FlexiTubes for Bio Creative Labs were conceived by UFlex on the "ABC approach" – Aesthetics, Barrier, Anti-Counterfeit – applied by FlexiTubes.
These tubes provide 360-degree printing with a soft matte finish and excellent reproduction of graphic images. The gold metallic lines on the tubes are created with the use of a holographic layer, thus eliminating the use of the foil stamping process. FlexiTubes makes use of Reverse Printing through Rotogravure process that gives true to life pictures on the tube.
Flex Asclepius PCR Based BOPET Films – FlexFilms offers an entire range of PCR grade film having up to 90% post-consumer recycled PET content under the brand name Asclepius.
FlexFilms’ Asclepius film technology is a family of plain, treated, coated, high barrier and heat-sealable BOPET films based on 90% PCR polymer content. This film represents a 75% reduction in carbon footprint versus virgin BOPET grades and has the same properties as its twin substrate derived from fossil fuel.
This is the only 90% PCR BOPET film that has received the "Kingfisher" Certification from SCS Global Services that certifies that FlexFilms’ PCR grade films contain a minimum 90% post-consumer recycled PET content.
FLEXPET F-STF Ultra Soft Super Durable BOPET Film– The soft-touch film BOPET Film exhibits exceptional scratch, heat and scuff resistance giving a unique and luxurious feel. The surface is self-healing from most scuffing and is optimally durable.
F-STF film exhibits low gloss, excellent matte homogeneity with high haze (>90%) and very high contact (see-through) clarity. This implies that the film can be readily reverse printed by convertors to impart deep and rich graphic images. This film is FDA compliant for a range of uses. Since its launch, it has found use in luxury brand packaging, decorative packaging, labeling, graphic advertising banners, and high-end stationery products among others.
