Global Pouch West returns to the heart of West Coast packaging activity in the fourth year of this growing conference focused on flexible packaging in the Western states.

To launch Friskies® Gravy Swirlers™, Friskies® Extra Gravy Chunky and Friskies® Party Mix™ Gravy-licious treats, Friskies teamed up with Kroger to debut its "Lap It Up" digital video starring the famous frowning Grumpy Cat and Kroger stock car driver A.J. Allmendinger's furry friend, Mr. Tickles. 

When Oberto reformulated some of their beef jerky products, it ran into issues with smaller product particulates getting caught in the seal area, thus causing leakers and rejects. To solve production challenges, Oberto turned to Triangle Package Machinery Company.

Filling and closing has become more flexible, more compact and somewhat confusing. Should you buy the hype? The machinery has two jobs: Filling a pouch, bottle, carton, vial or the like and then closing it – by sealing, capping or otherwise.

Veritiv Corporation announces it has completed the acquisition of All American Containers, a family-owned and operated leading distributor of rigid packaging including plastic, glass and metal containers, caps, closures and plastic pouches.

The Flexible Packaging Association (FPA) shares a new infographic that highlights the sustainability and convenience benefits of flexible packaging. 

We all buy with our eyes. Research suggests that consumer purchasing decisions are made within five to seven seconds of viewing a product. In a growing and saturated market like confectionery, brands are always looking for innovative ways to make their product stand out from the crowd. 

The proof is in the pouch: The Flexible Packaging Association (FPA) announces the sales benefits of switching to flexible packaging for brand owners. 

Karlville extends an invitation to all Global Pouch Forum attendees to participate in its Miami Headquarters Facility Tour, held prior to the start of the Forum on June 14, as part of the conference’s 20th year activities agenda.
