Description: CoverGuard™ is a Film Over Film that protects the product and graphics and will not bond to or damage the retail quality inner wrap.

Berry’s package submissions contain two end-use configurations wrapped in our “BullsEye™ PCR30” and overwrapped with our CoverGuard Film Over Film. One case contains four printed six packs of bottled water, and the other holds two, 12 packs, both shrink-wrapped in Berry’s printed 30% PCR content “BullsEye™ PCR30,” and then overwrapped with Berry’s CoverGuard™ Film Over Film.

Supply™ Indica Vape Pen, 300 mg
Award: Silver Award—Expanding the Use of Flexible Packaging; Silver Award—Packaging Excellence
Description: This Supply™ Indica Vape Pen package effectively grabs your attention with its minimalistic design. One of the best features of this bag is the child-resistant zipper by Elplast that has a fold-over flap with a double lock hidden behind it. It can only be opened by pulling back the flap and peeling apart the zippers behind. The bag also includes a double cut, allowing the bag to bleed to the edge.
Description: In 2021, Apex was collaborating with another supplier, running this film using traditional plate-based printing. Due to the brand’s high number of SKUs, they constantly faced ever-increasing plate changes that would often take six to eight weeks to switch over.
At the time, the brand only had a handful of SKUs but planned to continue introducing new flavors and designs. Because of this, Apex needed a quicker turn, plate-free print solution.
Nosco’s ability to help with Apex’s pouches while maintaining consistent colors further allowed for a growing print partnership.
Description: Integrated Plastics Packaging developed a recyclable all-PE (mono-polymer) three-layer printed laminate and converted it to a side-gusseted, flat-bottom 3D pouch. The pouch has a front-load pocket, a reclosable zipper, and a die-cut handle for consumer convenience to transport the 5 kg (11 lbs.) package. The graphics are superior via rotogravure printing with a matte and gloss effect, resulting in a spectacular product presentation.
