As the organic and high-quality pet food markets continue to grow, so does the need for high-quality flexible packaging . 

SigmaQ uses high-density barriers to safeguard pet food freshness and optimize shelf life. We also specialize in customized, high-quality packaging to boost shelf appeal , which is key to attracting high-end pet food shoppers.

Sustainable pet food packaging

As environmental legislation and corporate sustainability initiatives influence packaging design, more companies are using flexible packaging to reduce energy and resource consumption. According to the Flexible Packaging Association, flexibles provide various sustainability advantages when compared to other package formats, including:

• Landfill usage reduction 
• Material and resource efficiency 
• Diminished transportation 
• High product-to-package ratio 
• Product protection 

Flexible options for pet food manufacturers

Instead of offering only stock packaging options, SigmaQ provides the following types of flexible packaging, each with multiple modification choices:

• Pouches/Doypacks
• Lids
• Roll-fed labels
• Rolls
• Sachets
• Bags
• Thermo-shrinkable sleeves

Why SigmaQ?

High-quality packaging 

Low-quality packaging often fails to meet the expectations of pet food

consumers. Even worse, inadequate packaging may not pass inspections or withstand the temperature, humidity, or supply chain processes, leading to product decay and lost revenue. SigmaQ uses only high-quality raw materials in its flexible packaging offerings. We specialize in producing absolute air-tightness for custom bags, and have the capability to add accessories such as pre-cut laser, easy-open, zippers, and degassing valves. Shapes and types include: pouches or doypacks, rolls for sachets, pillows, and large format bags. 

Integrated printing capability

SigmaQ uses both rotogravure and flexography printing methods. Our Innovation & Development team helps customers determine which type of custom printing is appropriate for their packaging based on their preferred design and product needs. This adaptability helps optimize the packaging’s appearance, driving consumer intrigue and interaction. We also offer matte-finish printing, which is currently gaining popularity.
