Italian design and marketing company Pegaso chose flexible packaging specialist Mercury Packaging to produce biodegradable balloon bags for Disney themed products.
“At Pegaso, we are extremely pro-active in sourcing environmentally-friendly packaging films, and this is the first biodegradable balloon bag available in Italy,” says Patrizia Di Stefano, of Pegaso’s purchasing department.
The bags feature various Disney designs, namely Toy Story 3, Cars, Winnie the Pooh, Disney Fairies, Disney Princess and Mickey Mouse.
Produced from clear crystalline polypropylene (CPP) film, they were printed in six colours using Mercury’s state-of-the-art eight-colour flexo printing press.
The finished bag has a side weld, lateral seal and punched euroslot hangers for point-of-sale display.
“Working with Pegaso on its Disney products is a great boost for us and is contributing to the company building on its growing export success,” says Mark Binks, business development manager at Mercury Packaging.
