Plastic Packaging

Plastics are the ideal packaging material for a variety of modern requirements.  There are many types of plastic that have different functional properties such as being; food safe, flexible, transparent, and chemical and heat resistant.  Plastics are perfect for displaying products in a retail environment and are lightweight, durable and versatile.

1^st Packaging Ltd strives to be as environmentally friendly as possible and chooses to use PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) in all our manufacture.  Because of the recyclability of PET and the relative abundance of post-consumer waste in the form of bottles, PET is the number one choice.  We use only recycled PET (RPET) to produce our clear plastic packaging.  The packaging has a minimum of 60% post-consumer waste and it is also fully recyclable after use. In addition, 100% of our factory waste is recycled.

We can produce printed cardboard cartons with clear PET pick and place windows.  The windows become an integral part of the carton construction.  The clear plastic PET windows can be incorporated in up to three sides giving a premium look that will drive sales.

All of our clear plastic packaging is custom made to exactly fit your needs.  As we manufacture our clear plastic cartons here in the UK, we can offer very fast turnarounds on orders, especially if made from our extensive range of stock materials.  Our design team is always available to assist you from initial design concept through the final production.  Contact us by emailing sales@1st-packaging.co.uk or call  01844 273663 to discuss your packaging requirements.
