Bands vs cardboard sleeves for food packaging
Why bands are the superior choice
Looking for food packaging sleeves? Bands are a sleek, sustainable, and smart alternative to bulky cardboard sleeves. You achieve the same results while reducing material, weight, and overall costs.
Benefits of bands
Bands deliver superior recyclability, a precise fit for any product, and a future-ready packaging solution—along with a host of other benefits.
- Lower material costs.
- Eco-friendly and fully recyclable.
- Easily customized to fit any shape or size.
- Smooth, efficient production and application.
Make your products stand out on the shelf
Banding is the ideal food packaging solution. It provides space for (variable) product information while making your product stand out on the shelf. With less material and more product visibility, banding is a safe, efficient, and eye-catching packaging choice.
Slimmer costs, slimmer packaging
By using less material, banding reduces overall weight and brings down shipping costs significantly. Plus, rolls of bands occupy far less storage space than bulky stacks of cardboard sleeves, making it an exceptionally practical choice for efficient storage and streamlined operations.
