Those charged with making decisions about how to package products are often confronted with the challenge of determining if using one style of packaging, even though perhaps slightly more expensive, is a better overall choice than using traditional packaging. Another challenge is whether the style of packaging offered will be accepted by consumers in Sydney, such as the use of press seal bags for food products versus the standard brittle plastic packaging or standard vacuum sealed bags.
One change that has been occurring recently is merchants have started to offer certain foodstuffs for sale in plastic press seal bags. Offering two great features:
- Excellent protection from contamination and humidity
- Ease of access to the contents of the bag while being able to easily reseal the unused portion for later consumption.
Perhaps slightly more expensive to use for high volume producers, packaging foodstuffs is an application for press seal bags that just makes a lot of sense. If cost is a factor per unit, it must be only a matter of pennies. New trends have press and seal packaging being used for a wide variety of products in Sydney such as sliced lunch meets, cheese slices, candies, nuts, dried fruits, and a whole host of other items. Expect that more and more applications will be developed for press seal bags in the future for products where one is not expected to consume all of the contents of the package all at one time.
Just like people have found alternative uses for press seal bags in their home (using them as containers for loose nails and screws, storing game pieces so they don’t fall out of the game box, etc.), producers in Sydney will continue to find new applications where press seal bags clearly benefit the end user.
