SAUCES & DIP POTS

The condiment flexible packaging sector requires highly technical films capable of withstanding attack from oil, acid and spices that eat at the seal layer or cause delamination. Our decades of experience in this market ensures that our die cut lids lie flat when dispensed, have a broad sealing range and use a heat seal that withstands low pH conditions and aggressive chemical attack.

Our plastic PET lids are coated with an anti-static agent that aids rapid diaphragm denesting, mitigating machine down time and product waste. Hot-fill pre-cut lidding requirements are catered for with a solution that minimises lid curl during application and their hot tack strength safeguards against blown seals as the container cools. Co-ex PET films are used to prevent seal rupture during freezing and our transparent unprinted lids are one of the clearest in the market. Aluminium die cut solutions have heavier coat weights of heat seal lacquer to prevent acid spotting and co-ex alternatives are ideal for hot fill applications. With minimum order quantities from 50,000 we can print your design in up to 8 colours with metallic ink options if required.

Our flow wrap films for condiments have also been engineered to provide strong seals ​that withstand attack from oil, acid and spices. Typically constructed from Nylon/PE-EVOH-PE their high speed performance and strong seal characteristics make them an ideal solution for sachet's, stick-packs and large catering packs. When reverse printed with a tint or custom design, the packs remain fresh and vibrant. Easy tear options available with or without laser scoring.

Thermoforming base webs are widely supplied by us into this sector. Solutions include an impact modified polystyrene with a PS/PE-EVOH-PE structure and a peelable sealing layer against the polyethylene. The film is optimised for a better opening of breaking taps, has a high oxygen barrier based on EVOH and good thermoforming behaviour. Alternatives include a transparent or white, glossy rigid PVC film, calendered and laminated with LDPE to provide medium to high impact strength. 

To complement our base web offering, we supply either PET/PE-EVOH-PE or PET Metallised/PE solutions. These films have a good oxygen barrier, high metallising density and a broad sealing range. For off-the-shelf PP dip pots our top web solutions include 12PET/40PP peel or for a luxury peel 12PET/12PET metallised/40PP peel. This later solution provides an eye-catching metallised finish, withstands hot-fill extremely well and does not delaminate or tear during peel. We can also supply films to seal to PET & PS base webs. These films can be reverse printed for a glossy finish that will stay fresh over time, even in the hottest of kitchens.

Pre formed bags or doypacks are an ideal low entry packaging solution for cooking sauces. Variety of sizes are available with options to add a spout, handle, viewing window or zip lock. Flexo or gravure print choices available in up to 10 colours for that stand-out imagery and buy-me appeal.
