Different products. Closure suitable for your packaging.

Where does the choice start in dry food packaging?

Nuts, legumes, pasta and dried fruit bags; They differ in size, filling weight, material and presentation. The starting point for clip selection is the mouth of the bag to be closed rather than the product name. The remaining space in the full package, the thickness of the collected film and the closing movement should be examined together.

single wire ties, is evaluated in closures that are wrapped and twisted by hand. Double wire tape clips have a different closing structure. Tiesit is the plastic bag clip family; The opening and application method are selected according to the bag. Interchanging these families based solely on color or unit price does not provide an accurate comparison.

Three packaging scenarios

Small portions and sales packages

Check whether there is enough room in the mouth of the bag, the effect of the clip on the appearance of the package and the ease of opening. If the label or printed part must not be left under the cover, mark its placement on the photograph. In a package that is too small, long bond ends can affect presentation; It is better to determine the length with a sample.

Product series consisting of different weights

Even if the same bag type is used, the space left for the clip may change when the filling amount increases. Try the samples separately in low and high weight packages. If it is desired to use common clips between two sizes, both applications must meet the acceptance conditions. Save confirmed matches with product and packaging code.

Machine-sealed packages

Take as basis the way the machine works and the consumption it accepts. Roll length, bandwidth, wire diameter and feeding conditions are separate information. The label and measured photo of the existing roll are useful when requesting new consumables. Machine and consumable compatibility guideexplains the preparation of this information.

Do not judge the sample by its appearance alone

Carry control does not mean that the clip is a handle to carry the package. If load is transferred to the clip in your packaging layout, clearly state this and evaluate the application separately. The effect of a material change on the sealing result should be seen on the actual package.

Packaging protection and material information

Mechanical clamping is not a substitute for the barrier structure, welding process or other protection features of the packaging. Shelf life and product protection do not depend only on the clip. Also specify during the request whether the clip will come into contact with food or not; the required material or the type of conformity certificate is evaluated according to the relevant product and scope of use.

Things to remember when preparing an offer

• Packaged products, weights and full package photographs.
• Bag material, mouth size and remaining allowance for closure.
• Application by hand or machine; If there is a machine, model and current consumable information.
• Colour, cut or roll form, estimated consumption and requested unit.
