What is meant by industrial packaging
Before going into the specifics of high-quality packaging for the industrial sector, it is important to clarify what industrial packaging means. It refers to the packaging of industrial products with the purpose of protecting them during transport, moving them, and storing them.
When speaking of industrial packaging in general, three types of packaging can be distinguished:
- primary packaging, which refers to the packaging that encloses and protects the product ready for consumption, serving as product identification for the end consumer;
- secondary packaging, which aims to enclose multiple individual products and allows goods to be stacked;
- tertiary packaging, designed to facilitate the movement of multiple units of products and to protect them during transport and storage.
Another distinction can be made between industrial packaging and consumer packaging. For example, when a product is sold in smaller packaging for individual consumers or in larger containers for industrial use.
Types of packaging for the industrial sector
Specifically regarding tertiary packaging designed for transport and storage, there are various types that we at Flexpack offer for the industrial sector:
