Budelpack Poortvliet BV and Moens Mouldings Group BV Introduce Snapsil

Budelpack introduces Snapsil in cooperation with Moens Mouldings Group from Beverwijk and the Snapsil Corporation from Birtinya, Australia.

Oct 19 2010 --- Budelpack Poortvliet BV, one of Europe’s largest contract packers for A-brand owners in the FMCG-market, and Moens Mouldings Group BV, specialist in Europe in the field of IML packs, introduce an innovating packing concept: Snapsil.

Snapsil is a portion pack with an innovative “snap-opening”. With one hand Snapsil is very easy to open and to reclose. Because of the tailor-made dispensing opening, geared to the type of product, it is very simple to dose in a controlled way.

Application
Snapsil is applicable for a very wide range of products like vegetable food, dressing, sauces, candy, bubble gum, powders, cleaners and various granulates, like bite size chocolate. Different varieties are available for these products; Snap ‘n Grow, Snap ‘n Dispense and Snap ‘n Pour.
 
Fast market introduction
Budelpack introduces Snapsil in cooperation with Moens Mouldings Group from Beverwijk and the Snapsil Corporation from Birtinya, Australia. By means of this cooperation the complete supply chain has been organised which enables brand owners to realise a very short time-to-market, even from 12 weeks, so indicates Peter Nieuwkerk, Managing Director of Budelpack. Wim Moens of Moens Mouldings completes his words: “there is a strongly growing need for packaging innovations which can be brought to the market with low risk and low costs but with high speed. The unique cooperation between Moens, Budelpack and the Snapsil Corporation enables this”. The Snapsil packaging machine is operational as from September 2010.
 
Materials
The Snapsil packaging is made of lightweight PP. The covering foil can be made of OPP/PE, Pap/PE or PET/PE depending on the needs. For the secondary packaging every desired variety can be offered. A thermoform solution is under development.
