With Packstyle customize your flexible packaging for you herbal teas and spices, protecting their scent!

Preservation of a delicate product

The storage of spices, teas, herbal teas and inflorescences is very delicate. Many of these products have a long expiration date, but with unsuitable packaging they may lose their aroma, flavor and the integrity of their active ingredients. It is therefore essential to preserve the integrity of its active ingredients in order to always have a quality product available.

Above all, it is moisture, exposure to light, air and shocks that are the main enemies of dried herbs, whether tea, herbal tea, spices or inflorescences. 

The ideal packaging for this category must therefore prevent the buildup of moisture that promotes the formation of mold and mildew, which would permanently alter the aroma and functionality of the herbs, and also avoid sunlight, which gradually causes the potency of the aroma and the effectiveness of the principles to be lost.

The ideal packaging also needs to be well sealed and sturdy to preserve the organoleptic characteristics of the products and of adequate size so that there is the right amount of oxygen inside and the spices, should they be whole, do not risk being crushed.

The characteristics of Packstyle packaging 

Packstyle packaging is suitable for storing dried herbs in the best possible way because all pouches are certified for food contact. It is available in the flat pouch version, for small quantities, and in the doypack pouch version , with a larger volume for larger quantities of product or for whole products with a larger size.

All materials are high-barrier, with an EVOH inner layer that provides excellent protection against oxygen, carbon dioxide, and aromas; especially, pouches with an aluminum layer offer excellent moisture protection, exceptional impact properties, and high protection against UV and aromas.

The pouches can have a matte, glossy or soft touch finish, and accessories such as degassing valve, eurohole and resealable zipper are also available. 

Transparent windows can also be affixed to the doypack pouches in a simple process, explained through a tutorial on the website, to show buyers the product inside the pouches. 

The flexible packaging is also suitable for vacuum and protected atmosphere packaging.

For example, packaging for cannabis inflorescence, which is a dry, resinous product must protect it from light and moisture to preserve all the product's aromas and properties.

Packaging for spices is meant to guard it from oxygen and moisture so that its "smell" reaches the consumer, as is packaging for tea and herbal teas. 

One packaging, many functions

Flexible packaging is modern packaging that appeals to consumers on several fronts: this type of packaging allows products to be stored perfectly, plus the package is easy to open, does not get dirty, and the brand name of the products is clearly visible. Traditional cardboard packaging or classic plastic and glass containers take up a lot of space inside supermarket shelves or in home pantries. In contrast, products packaged with flexible packaging save a lot of space.

The ample space devoted to graphics on flexible packaging makes it possible to communicate mandatory information to consumers according to current regulations, thus the product's origin, expiration date, storage method, and any allergens. However, the flexible pouch is suitable because with its graphics it captures the consumer's attention by focusing on the emotional sphere.
