Zip-Pak will exhibit its Zip360 resealable pack on stand F057 at AUSPACK 2019. The pouch has a wide-mouth opening created by a 360-degree perimeter zipper.

The pouch allows for neat in-store shelf presence and convenient home storage, claims Zip-Pak, which bills it as a package as innovative as the product.

According to the manufacturer, its benefits include easy access to contents through an innovative wide opening; a stand-up format for neat stocking in store and convenient storage at home; pour-spout functionality for easy product dispensing; and space for dynamic graphics on all sides for maximum shelf impact.

Zip-Pak says the pouch is an ideal solution for a broad range of applications, including cereal, frozen food, cookies and crackers, snacks, pet food and treats, lawn and garden, vegetables, french fries, and candy.

Based in Dandenong South, Victoria, Zip-Pak says it has an unmatched global network of innovative resealable products, manufacturing capabilities, equipment, and technical support.
