Application Solutions for Flexible Packaging and Travel

 

Application requirements determine how a product is selected, specified and evaluated. Film structure, package design, closure method, production process and operating conditions all affect the required construction and performance.
Our application range covers flexible packaging and travel. Flexible packaging applications include closure solutions for PE, OPP and other flexible packaging structures. Travel applications cover luggage for everyday trips, business travel, carry-on use and checked baggage.
An application-based approach begins with the intended use and defines the relevant material, construction, dimensions and performance criteria. This creates a practical basis for sample evaluation, technical approval and repeat purchasing.

 

Applications We Support
 

Flexible Packaging

Flexible packaging applications require compatibility between the sealing tape, film surface, package structure and application process. Product selection should consider both the finished package and the way the closure is applied.
Applications include PE bags, OPP bags, courier and mailer bags, garment packaging, retail packaging, e-commerce packaging, food packaging and industrial bags.
Permanent constructions are suited to one-time closure requirements, while resealable constructions allow repeated opening and closing. Tape width, adhesive construction, roll format and unwind characteristics are selected according to the package design and production method.

Travel & Business

Travel applications cover luggage used for everyday travel, business trips, carry-on use and checked baggage.
Selection depends on luggage dimensions, internal capacity, structural configuration, mobility and expected handling. Everyday luggage may require accessible storage and easy movement, while business luggage can place greater emphasis on organized compartments and efficient use of space.
Carry-on and checked baggage have different dimensional and capacity requirements. Product configuration should therefore reflect the intended travel category, loading conditions and handling frequency.

 

 

Application-Based Product Selection

 

 

Product selection begins with the intended application and then defines the material, construction, dimensions and required performance.

 

Material

Substrate Identification: PE, OPP, laminated films and paper surfaces are reviewed according to their structure, thickness and surface condition.
Material Compatibility: Luggage materials and components are selected according to weight, structural requirements, handling conditions and intended use.

Closure

Closure Type: Permanent and resealable constructions are specified according to the required opening and closing function.
Placement Design: Tape position, sealing width and package geometry are coordinated to provide the required closure area.

Usage

Operating Conditions: Application requirements vary between industrial bags, garment packaging, mailers and retail packages, so the closure construction is matched to the actual use.
Travel Configuration: Luggage dimensions, storage layout and component arrangement are selected according to trip duration and carrying requirements.

Process

Application Method: Manual, semi-automatic and continuous application methods require suitable roll formats, dispensing characteristics and handling procedures.
Winding Control: Roll length, core dimensions and winding tension are defined to support stable feeding and consistent application.

Environment

Temperature Conditions: Storage, transport and use temperatures are considered when establishing the required adhesive and material performance.
Exposure Period: Expected contact time and environmental exposure are reviewed when setting holding, opening and resealing requirements.

 

 

From Application to Specification

 

A defined application provides the basis for measurable product requirements and a controlled purchasing specification.

 

 
Define the Use

Packaging Parameters: Bag format, sealing position, opening method and expected closure function are established before product selection.
Travel Parameters: Travel category, luggage dimensions, capacity and carrying method are defined according to the intended use.

 
Identify the Materials

Substrate Verification: Film type, gauge, surface treatment, printing coverage and bonding area are confirmed for packaging applications.
Component Selection: Luggage materials and structural components are assessed according to load, configuration and appearance requirements.

 
Set the Requirements

Dimensional Standards: Tape width, length, thickness, roll configuration and relevant tolerances are specified for production control.
Documentation Standards: Approved technical specifications define the product construction, inspection requirements and reference conditions.

 
Evaluate the Product

Adhesion Testing: Peel strength, tack, holding force and opening behavior are evaluated using representative substrates and application conditions.
Mobility Assessment: Luggage wheels, handles, joints and structural components are evaluated under defined load and handling conditions.

 
Confirm the Specification

Baseline Recording: Approved materials, dimensions, construction and performance requirements are recorded as the reference specification.
Quality Benchmarking: Inspection criteria are established for incoming materials, finished products and subsequent production batches.

 

 

 

Application Support

 

 

 Clear application information connects purchasing requirements with technical selection, sampling and production approval.

 

Packaging Information
Substrate Data: Film structure, thickness, surface treatment, printing coverage and bonding area are documented for product evaluation.
Format Specifications: Bag dimensions, sealing position, closure width and application area are defined before sample preparation.


Application Method
Line Integration: Manual, semi-automatic or continuous application methods are reviewed to determine suitable tape formats and dispensing conditions.
Roll Configuration: Core size, roll diameter, winding direction and roll length are specified according to the application equipment and production process.

Performance Requirements

Adhesion Metrics: Peel behavior, tack, holding force and opening characteristics are defined using agreed test conditions.
Resealability Targets: Repeated opening and closing cycles are assessed when the package requires reusable access.

Luggage Requirements

Configuration Details: Internal compartments, handles, wheels, structural sections and other functional components are defined according to the intended luggage category.
Capacity Standards: External dimensions and internal volume are coordinated with carrying requirements, loading conditions and travel use.

Documentation

Technical Records: Material specifications, inspection results, test data and applicable compliance documents are maintained as part of the product record.
Traceability: Production and inspection records provide a documented reference for approved specifications and supplied batches.

 

Applications by Market Need

Application requirements vary according to how products are packed, transported and used. Market needs provide a practical basis for defining the appropriate construction and performance criteria.
