Sealing the Deal with Resealable Packaging

Resealable Technology and Its Benefits for Consumers

Two decades ago, few companies were able to incorporate resealable packaging for packaged goods. Today, advances in flexible packaging and equipment have made the options more affordable. It’s easier than ever with three new, easy-to-use, compact machines offered by Pioneer Packaging.

The HIPPO vacuum sealer works by powerfully removing the air in a pouch prior to sealing. The lightweight, one-touch sealer reduces volume, protects against exposure, and extends the shelf life of contents—making it ideal for meeting the demanding requirements of the food packaging and medical packaging industries. The sealer supports flat bags with openings up to 300mm made of various materials, including poly/nylon, aluminum vapor deposition, and laminated materials—and vacuums and seals regardless of pouch contents. It can be used in factories as well as on a counter due to its flexible design and built-in adaptor.

One of Pioneer Packaging’s favorite machines is the QUPPA. Similar in size and as easy to operate as a stapler, the ultrasonic mini welder generates ultrasonic waves which spot-weld plastic packaging shut in two seconds or less. Just insert the sealing surface in the handset and lightly press. Packages open and seal easily without the need for staples, rubber bands, or cellophane tape. Ideal for food safety, QUPPA creates a strong, tamperproof seal for plastic containers, snap-on, or clamshell packaging, while presenting packaged goods in an attractive way.

The compact AZ Sealer provides dual and single heating to seal bags that provide protection from light, moisture, discoloration, or loss of fragrance. Dual heating elements mounted on the top and bottom are used when the bag is especially thick or requires a very high temperature to seal. The AZ Sealer can be used with polyethylene, polypropylene, nylon polyethylene, vinylon, and laminated materials—even thick aluminum or metallic bags with four overlapping layers and bags with heavy or unwieldy contents. Just steady the bag with both hands and lightly press the AZ Sealer’s table. The sealer is the answer to our clients’ packaging needs which include food, bakery, confectionary, and meat applications.
