Heritage Pioneer now offers a breakthrough new packaging design, the H-Loc Trapped Blister. It makes a fantastic replacement for traditional clamshells and other designs used in retail and store club packaging.
Trapped Blister Packaging Beats Regular Clamshells
The H-Loc Trapped Blister products are made from paper substrates and RPET plastic film. All trapped blister materials are 100% recyclable, making them an excellent sustainable packaging option versus clamshells, which use the more difficult to recycle PVC plastic.
H-Loc Trapped Blister Benefits
- Reduces the plastic content of the package
- Replaces PVC with RPET and paperboard materials
- Provides tamper evident security
- Is typically cost-neutral for materials and labor versus standard clamshells
- Provides better surface for graphics, enhancing branding and shelf appeal
- Improves WalMart scorecard ratings
The trapped blister design is being well received by manufacturers of retail products, club stores, and consumers alike. Traditional clamshell packaging, while providing excellent tamper resistance, is the packaging everybody loves to hate. The difficulty in opening a clamshell, and the possibility of injury due to the use of sharp knives or scissors, are very real drawbacks that influence buying decisions and endanger customer loyalty.
In contrast, the H-Loc Trapped Blister provides tamper evidence, and yet can be opened without the use of sharp instruments. More sustainable and user friendly, the new product is generating a lot of interest. If you’d like to discuss this new approach, please contact us.
We’ll be blogging about the trapped blister and other sustainable packaging products on our Heritage Sustainable Packaging Blog, which launched recently.
