About Flow Wrapping Services
How crisps stay fresh when you pop open the packet? It’s thanks mainly to flow wrapping. You have a crimp seal at the top and bottom and a fin seal running the length of the packet that’s the easiest way to understand flow wrapping!
Flow wrapping has also been referred to as fin seal wrapping, crimp seal wrapping, and horizontal bagging.
What items can you flow wrap?
Flow wrapping is basically a packaging process that over wraps a product with a film. You can flow wrap all kinds of products which also include foods, leaflets or booklets, scratch cards, phone cards and giveaways in cereal packets and computer software. There are hundreds of different products that we all use daily which are flow wrapped including wipes, tissues, sweets, chocolate bars and pharmaceutical products and cosmetics.
What materials are used in flow wrapping?
It really depends on the product. Foods maybe wrapped in food grade clear or printed, polypropelene film. Up to 10 colours maybe used to create a unique look or specific branding. There is a wide variety of wrapping material available in today’s market depending on the needs of the client. This also includes cellulose film and heat sealable lacquered materials and plastics laminated to paper film or foil.
What type of machinery is used in flow wrapping??
Flow wrapping or fin seal as it as often called, is a very versatile and cost effective solution for your packaging needs. The Horizontal Form-Fill-Seal machines are also known as ‘Flowrappers.’ These machines are highly effective and efficient and are capable of flow wrapping up to 50,000 items per daily shift. With several machines up to 200,000 items per day can be flow wrapped! This type of machinery is used by companies which offer contract packaging and packing and wrapping solutions on a wholesale basis.
These machines will produce assorted crimp seal sizes and airtight seals for a wide variety of products. To obtain the best results the film must be wrapped tightly enough around the product so that is doesn’t move around inside. The ‘tails’ at either end must be compact so that the products are packed efficiently.
So next time you open a packet of crisps, you now know how the wrapping was completed!
