So much food, whether dry or wet products, is packaged to be consumed by customers at a future date. This could be fruit juices, iced juices, gels, powders and supplements for the bodybuilder or athlete, or coffee, tea, sugar and a host of other products that are consumed and enjoyed on the go.
We live in an age where time is often of the essence, and when there is not always a moment or two to take a break at the office, or between assignments, to sit down and enjoy a freshly prepared meal or squeezed juice. This is where the convenience of a pre-packed meal or supplement to give us some additional energy, comes in so handy. These ‘on-the-go’ eats and drinks need, obviously, to be fresh and well preserved when they reach us. Nobody wants to buy a product that has been, due to bad packaging for example, contaminated or compromised.
A good packaging solution is, therefore, of paramount importance. There are various ways in which to pack products before they are sent out from the factory or other facility where the packaging takes place. One very popular option is the so-called flexible packaging which refers ...
... to, as the term suggests, flexible or non-rigid materials such as when the manufacturer uses, say, plastic, paper and other similar materials to ensure the products inside the material is not damaged, remains fresh and in good condition until the consumer opens the packet. One of these is the stick pack option.
They are normally not very big in size, they are narrow and are made as fairly small pouches, even though some are bigger. The small size is ideal for filling these sticks or pouches with a powder, sweets or other product that can be consumed quickly and the packaging afterwards safely discarded of. They are popular because they are so convenient - convenient to carry with you and to be consumed wherever you find yourself, be that in your vehicle, on the bus or just before/after exercise at the gym.
The stick pack is ideal in many circumstances, and for certain businesses, especially, they are the best solution. They are great to use when your business runs a campaign or promotion where samples may be handed out to the intended target market, or to be added as small, single servings to an already existing range, or to add another dimension to your brand, and because of their small stick size, they are indeed easy and convenient to handle.
The food and beverage market, for example, is great on using the stick pack packaging method to get their products out there, be that at the retailer’s point of sale, or elsewhere. But, not only in these markets as the flexible stick pack packaging method is making its presence felt slowly in other spheres as well. Think, for example, of the beauty industry, cosmetics and personal care. More and more of these companies now understand the convenience with which their products can be shipped and distributed to their markets.
More and more businesses, as a result, are now looking at the possibility of employing the services of a company that can advise them about this type of packaging, and even to assist them in the production of their stick packs. Some are even geared to assist clients with the design of their stick pack, their logo and brand detail printed on the stick, and more.
In some countries, for example the US, clients have choices with regard to service providers that can produce these sticks and pouches for them. The best among these often stand out above others for quality and choice, and for offering services in addition to only producing the stick packaging. They are available, and the best among them can be contacted via their websites.
