A pioneer in the development of environment-friendly packaging products, Uflex Ltd is adding to the industry that is growing at the rate of 22-25 per cent in India, annually. An attractive harbor for investment, it is being backed by mammoth requirements that FMCG and many other industries have.
A technological breakthrough that is amongst some of the most popular products in the global flower market, it is based on the principle of active modified atmospheric packaging through Flexfresh, a special patented polymeric film that increases the shelf-life for fruits, vegetable and flowers.
A 100 percent biodegradable film, it keeps the flowers hydrated during transpiration by creating a closed loop system. The film uses slow respiration for flowers by reducing the amount of oxygen availability, thereby preventing oxidation and dehydration both. Hydrated oxygen keeps the flowers breathing and releasing excess humidity keeps them dry. As the humidity remains, the flowers continue to breathe and remain fresh for days without water.
One of the first few to innovate and provide the market with the ink that offers complete solutions to UV LED sheetfed printers with its inks, coatings and texture systems, ‘FlexGreen’ by Uflex Ltd is helping reduce import dependence. What makes the product unique are its properties, high colour strength and gloss, along with quick curing. Furthermore, it has an excellent ink-water balance, press stability, excellent print quality and low odour. The product’s high strength helps reach the desired ink densities with lesser ink release, providing superior mileage.
Staying true to their environment-friendly practices, the ‘FlexGreen’ brings considerable savings with lower energy consumption, and reduced carbon footprint.
One amongst the Uflex Ltd poducts, is the Easy-Scoop-Lock-Tight Pitcher Bag. A simple yet effective commodity, it dispenses controlled portions of products packed inside.
A handle bolstered on the side gusset makes it easy to use. Further, the bag’s block bottom makes it stand without any support, making the brands on it clearly visible, and adding to the ease of use. Accommodating 3, 5 and 10 kg products and adding to the shelf life, the bags cater to numerous industries, especially rice, sugar, pulses and pet food. A laser perforated easy-to-tear opening fitted with a press-to-close (PTC) zipper, along with the handle, makes these bags effective and reusable.
Developed by Asepto, one of the Uflex subsidiaries, the holographic packs were specially created by the company for Fresca, one of the juice brands in India. According to Akhil Gupta, MD, Fresca, the new packing will appeal customers when it comes to gifting, and also takes care of the product safety. On the launch of the aseptic holographic pack, he also said, “… the unique striking effects of holographic innovation by Uflex’s brand Asepto has encouraged us to create a fresher approach for consumers, the holography in aseptic packs is a boon to the industry. On the first day of market launch we have been able to bag massive orders for the upcoming festive season.”
