Sustainability in packaging is no longer a mere trend; it is becoming a necessity driven by environmental concerns and regulatory demands. Among the most promising advancements in this realm are monomaterials, single-material compositions that offer a host of benefits over traditional multilayered packaging. For packaging engineers, understanding the potential of monomaterials is crucial for developing future-ready solutions.
Dive into the top 3 strategies CPGs are implementing to achieve sustainability goals - and how Sealstrip can help your packaging go green!
Food waste is an enormous, expensive problem — and most of it happens after the groceries are home. ReFED estimates that about a quarter of the U.S. food supply goes to waste each year, and consumer households are the single biggest source. USDA puts total U.S. food waste at roughly 30–40% of the food supply, and the UN’s 2024 Food Waste Index attributes about 60% of global food waste to households. A large share of that is simply food that goes stale or spoils after the package is opened — which is exactly where resealable packaging earns its keep.
Medical and pharmaceutical packaging carries two demands at once. It has to open cleanly and reliably in a clinical setting — often with gloved hands, under time pressure — and it has to show at a glance that the package hasn’t been opened or tampered with before it reaches the patient. Those aren’t competing goals: the right easy-open feature is also your tamper evidence. Here’s how to think about it, and which Sealstrip features fit.
Tamper evidence is about trust: a shopper, a clinician, or a regulator needs to see instantly that a package hasn’t been opened since it left the plant. In flexible packaging, that proof comes from a feature that can’t be undone once it’s been used. Here’s how tamper evidence works in flexible packaging, and which Sealstrip features deliver it.
Shrink film and overwrap protect a product beautifully — and can be miserable to open. Anyone who’s gone after a shrink-wrapped package with keys or scissors knows the feeling the industry calls “wrap rage.” The fix is a built-in easy-open feature applied as the package is wrapped. Fittingly, easy-open shrink packaging is where Sealstrip started — the company’s very first product, back in the late 1960s, solved exactly this — so here’s how today’s options work and how to choose.
