What is Indigo pack ready?
- It is a sort of innovation that makes the packaging procedure simpler and quicker, which later on results as an extraordinary benefit for the businesses.
- This technology basically saves a lot of time for the production cycle, this machine alone laminates and coats the label to the packaging which saves 9 to 10 days of the packaging process, by which brands can get their product on the container even faster for further dealings.
- Indigo pack ready is an energy-efficient, chemical-free digital technology that increases the throughput, reduces the total cost and also the wastage of material is very minimal. It is the first machine that features a non-adhesive lamination process which is used for flexible packing. Because it runs without adhesive, the laminated packages don’t require any curing time.
How it works?
- Instead of using adhesive, this technology uses a thermoplastic polymer layer which is heat activated. Then by applying pressure and using a cooling process, a strong and long-lasting bond is instantly formed, which results in a combined laminate film that is ready to be heat sealed and packed immediately.
- It is designed in a very proper and effective manner by keeping the brand and the consumer in mind. All the pack ready films are food contact grade and this process also satisfies all the requirements of global food packaging safety regulations. Since pack ready technology does not use adhesive, there will be no problem while migration because there won’t be any harmful chemicals such as isocyanates? The surrounding of the pack ready machine also remains clean. This technology results in up to 10 times less material wastage than the adhesive lamination process.
- This technology is built in such a way that any of the engineers can learn to operate it in a very less period of time, also the hardware cost is less and this technology does not need much maintenance too.
Qualities of BOPP (Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene) films that can turn out to be great for packaging:
- BOPP films have incredible shine and high transparency that gives it a magnificent look and perfect finish.
- Other polyester films are not resistant to outside contamination though BOPP films have great potential to oppose contamination and also tend to resist the unwanted moisture.
- Because of premium quality, it also minimizes the damage caused to the products while transportation and is also acceptable all over the world.
- One of the most remarkable qualities of BOPP film manufacturers is that, they tend to make it recyclable which is another quality that also favors the environment.
