Part 2: Flexible Packaging

Welcome back to our inSITE series! Last time we introduced you to our label sites (if you missed it you can check it out here).

This week we’re going to talk about all things flexible packaging!

We have a total of 19 sites situated in the UK, and 4 of these are dedicated to flexible packaging products; from lidding film to flexible pouches, we’re almost guaranteed to have the skills, experience, and machinery to help.

Why choose digital print?

Digital print is a perfect solution for smaller print runs. It offers speed to market, personalisation, and variable print. Not to mention the low CO2 footprint (print on demand).

By having a digital flexible packaging facility, it means we’re well equipped to serve a wide range of customer order volumes.
