A study carried out by market research company Mintel regarding packaging trends has shown that consumers opt for product packaging that looks different, feels nice or has innovative features. Packaging should stand out from the rival offers on the shelf as well as inspiring consumer confidence. "Our customers want packaging that protects their product and creates added value," explains Albert Klinkhammer, group marketing director at the international paper and packaging manufacturer Mondi.
1. Convenience: The Mondi Easy Open initiative developed a range of innovations to meet the requirements of consumers of all age groups. The product solutions include CornerPack, StripePack, FlexziBox Flat Bottom with various features, ZipperPouch and removable films.

One example of this is ArtPack, on which a matt special finish is applied to a flexible film, resulting in a packaging that not only looks like a real paper bag, but feels like one too. PaperPack is a combination of paper and flexible film that is available on a roll or as ready-made bags with a window to display the pack contents.

SKOG is produced from FSC-certified sack kraft paper from Mondi and provided with an extrusion coating. The laminate keeps food fresh and permits thermosealing.

Stand-up pouches are growing in popularity on account of their bright colour printing, linear design and ease of handling. Mondi produces laminates and ready-made bags with optional pourers, hot filling capability, reclosing and tear-open features as well as customised pouch shapes. The sack kraft paper…
