Flexible plastics, also known as soft plastics, are versatile and are used across a wide variety of products to deliver a range of benefits. They are lightweight, however, depending on geography, can be challenging to recycle.
Common formats include lidding film, bags, pouches, sleeves, flow wrap, shrink wrap and stretch wrap.
Flexible packaging is mainly supplied as either pre-formed in the required format or on a reel of film, depending in the needs of the product.
Films for flexible plastics many be mono (single) layer films or multi-layer laminates. The selection should be driven by product needs. For example, a laminate may be selected where a mono film cannot provide the barrier properties required to protect the product.
