Uflex Limited has recently engineered an Easy-Scoop-Lock-Tight Pitcher Bag that effortlessly dispenses controlled portions of the product packed inside. The four panel bag comes with a reinforced handle on the side gusset spelling tremendous ease of carrying.
The Easy-Scoop-Lock-Tight Pitcher Bag is made of multi-layered laminate depending upon the barrier properties required by the product to be packed inside. The block bottom allows the bag to stand up without taking any support thereby enhancing the brand visibility. The pitcher bag is ideal for packaging granular products such as rice, sugar, pulses, and pet foods.
Uflex Limited’s packaging and new product development joint president Jeevaraj Pillai said, “These are medium to large sized bags capable of accommodating 3kg, 5kg and 10kg of the product. We have provided a laser perforated easy to tear opening on the side at the top of the bag which peels open to form a perfectly versatile pitcher mouth-opening that is re-closable by a special press to close (PTC) zipper.
The end-user can pour or scoop out desired quantity of the product by holding the bag with the reinforced side gusset handle, which is an integral and contiguous part of the pouch, without actually inserting hands inside the pack. This makes the handling more convenient and hygienic. The dispensing mouth that forms in the pouch prevents any spillage while pouring out unlike other pillow and conventional pouches.
“We fabricate these bags on a sophisticated, imported, capital-intensive, customized pouch making machine that works on a patented technology which automatically poses an entry barrier for other converting players to venture in. The special PTC zipper that we use for this packaging is again specialised and patented, he added.
Speaking on compliance of the product, he said, “All components used for manufacturing the Easy-Scoop-Lock-Tight Pitcher Bag are food-grade and are FDA approved. Furthermore, we use Toluene and MEK free Inks upholding our commitment towards environment, safety and wellbeing of all stakeholders across the value chain.”
“This bag can be customised for other product types as well, and we are already getting encouraging response from various FMCG brands both in India as well as overseas.”
Talking about the new product, Uflex Limited chairman and managing director Ashok Chaturvedi commented, “The Easy-Scoop-Lock-Tight Pitcher Bag is a classic example of process improvement and incrementally progressive efficient converting. We have invested in sophisticated pouch making machinery getting a clear edge above others in manufacturing the Easy-Scoop-Lock-Tight Pitcher Bag that adds to the delight of the end users thereby adding immense value to the businesses of our esteemed clients.”
