Flexible Packaging Process

In this modern & dynamic world everybody expect instant product. So the food industry must work together with packaging company to solve this problem especially in flexible packaging. The packaging company must make a breakthrough with innovation. I would like to share with everybody how this process from beginning until finish product. First from choosing the right material suitable to pack the food and the design the customer want. It's quite complex. First the material must be printed as customer's wish. For that the designer must prepare the rolls for printing department. The rolls must be engrave first like the customer's design. Then will test print be done for to see if the design already suitable like customer's wish. If so, then the mass production can be done. Printing technology normally be use is rotogravure. After printed, then will go to laminating process. After that go to slitting process as finish product and then can deliver to customer.
