Both branded and private label pet food packs are now using the Slide-Rite slider closure system, confirming its suitability for dry products, according to Pactiv Slide-Rite Europe.
Pactiv is co-operating with a large number of licensees world-wide, offering the Slide-Rite both as pre-made bags and as an in-line system. Several projects in the chilled and frozen products market are currently being tested. The closure system can also be integrated in-line into FFS packaging machines.
Slide-Rite is said to provide the end user with an easy and secure method of opening and re-closing packs with one grasp, helping preserve the freshness and aroma of the contents even after frequent use.
