Food
Our products span the food industry, from a wide range of direct product packaging to point of sale packaging to transit packaging.
Whether directly or indirectly (through convertors), our products are involved in the delivery and safe keeping of a large number of household products in the shops today. Our factory has full accreditation to BRC/IOP (Global Standard) for food packaging. The entire production process from raw material handling and blending through extrusion to packaging and despatch is monitored to ensure consistency and prevent contamination. We have invested heavily in automatic systems to support this and operator training and development to manage and monitor it.
Some of the products we supply,
Beverage
We are one of the leading suppliers of plain and printed shrink film to the drinks industry, with a number of high profile customers using our materials.
Collation shrink wrap is a core product to Flexfilm; as we have long worked with all the major single and twin feed machinery (new and old), we can advise both on material selection and machine throughput maximisation. The balance of material yield versus machine throughput is a fine one and we work with our customers to optimise this for their individual needs.
Both plain and printed, we supply a full range of shrink film options as well as film for bulk liquid packaging and pallet covers to the drinks industry
Agriculture and Horticulture
Flexfilm’s management were some of the early developers of films for the agricultural market and pioneered development of breathable and degradable plastics.
We supply a range of products from crop cover films for growers to heavy duty co-extruded films for point of sale packaging of horticultural products. We have worked closely with growers to develop different products for UV protection/ film life expectancy as well as breathable and degradable films.
Carpet and textile
Flexfilm supplies large volumes of films for use on automatic wrapping units - specifically in the carpet and underlay industries; as elsewhere, our long standing experience with wrapping machinery and customer needs has given us expertise in material selection and product specifications in these applications. Our production capabilities are well suited to supplying the high standards of reeling and material consistency required in these markets.
Bedding and Furniture
We supply a full range of cost effective, durable protective films for the bedding, furniture and insulation industries. Added value products such as high clarity, lower gauge/ high strength or printed make our offering to these sectors complete.
Construction
We supply films for a number of packaging applications in the construction industry - whether plain or printed shrink wrap or stretch hoods for the protection and promotion of bricks, tiles and paving, industrial sheeting or heavy duty sacks for aggregates, we understand the requirements of cost and efficiency in the industry;
