That’s why we’re committed to creating flexible packaging products that enable environmental responsibility and assist you on your own journey through the circular economy, with:

  • Lightweight products with an excellent product-to-package ratio.
  • Solutions that help lower your product’s overall carbon footprint.

  • Packaging that collapses as it’s used, leaving minimal waste for landfills.
  • A growing number of recyclable flexible packaging solutions.

Product-to-Package Ratio – Spouted Pouch

Sustainability in flexible packaging has many metrics to define a number of it advantages over rigid packaging formats. One such metric is the product-to-package ratio, or “the ratio of the weight of all packaging material used to the weight of the product or functional unit delivered.*”

Many rigid packaging formats are comprised of heavy materials like glass or metals. These require more energy to produce, transport, and store. This, often, leads to a ratio that is closer to parity. Because flexible packaging has the capability of being downgauged to an optimal, lightweight structure, the resulting ratios show a wider gap between the two numbers.

The better the product-to-package ratio is, the more likely your packaging solution is a better, environmentally-conscious choice for your brand.
