Broaden Clamshell Packaging Capabilities by Outsourcing
Clamshells are an excellent packaging alternative for a number of reasons.
- Tamper Evidence. For consumer electronics, food products, and pharmaceuticals – to name a few – clamshells are invaluable, allowing products to be displayed confidently on retail shelves.
- Thermal Insulation. Since clamshells can be made from a wide range of plastic and paper materials, they are highly favored for processed food applications, as well as temperature sensitive medical products and electronic components.
- Branding and Marketing. Clear plastic clamshells allow manufacturers of consumer items to show off their products on the retail shelf or in point of purchase displays, or POPs. Labels can easily be used as well, making clamshell packaging a highly versatile marketing platform.
- Sustainability. Paper based materials have grown in popularity, most noticeably in the fast food industry, where polystyrene was once used almost exclusively. Today, many firms are shifting from plastic to paper materials as part of their effort to utilize sustainable packaging.
- Cost. Clamshells deliver several important benefits at an extremely low per-unit cost. Alternative packaging solutions are often price prohibitive or not really feasible from a design standpoint.
To help companies take full advantage of clamshell packaging options, we offer packaging services that enable our customers to shift packaging size, packaging volume, and clamshell materials without the need for capital investment in new equipment. Today, manufacturers and distribution centers need to maximize flexibility. As consumer preferences change, companies must adapt quickly with new products and product put-ups. Maintaining in-house packaging automation to cover the breadth of current and future needs grows harder every day.
