World-Class Packaging Technical Support

Our onsite research and development laboratory and experienced team of packaging technicians enables us to provide world-class technical support for the whole packaging selection and adoption process – from product development, processing and sealing through to supply chain trials and post-launch evaluation and troubleshooting.

  • Film Evaluations including layer configurations, OTR barrier, COF, lamination bond strength, material analysis, physical properties, tear strength, tensile strength, puncture, slip, blocking, scuffing, film thickness variation, W.V.TR and F.T.I.R for polymer identification.
  • Sophisticated computer modelling to develop customised breathable films.
  • New product development and trials.
  • Sealing curve evaluations for optimal sealing settings.
  • Testing of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) to ensure the safety compliance of imported film.

The recyclable pouches keep our Beta Bites Snacking Carrots fresh and support our premium messaging of `Snacking and Fresh’ by providing consumers with the convenient re-closeable zipper they want. Shifting to a recyclable pouch has allowed us to continue to benefit from the functionality provided by plastic pouches in a way that is kinder to the environment and meets the sustainable packaging requirements of the supermarkets we sell to.

AS Wilcox & Sons, Pukekohe, New Zealand, Marketing Manager Dean Langrell-Read -

We are really pleased to have found a local recyclable pouches supplier that not only provided us with the packaging we need, but also worked with our Auckland lozenge manufacturers to make sure the pouches run really well on their packing lines. After sourcing our previous pouches offshore, it’s been a breath of fresh air to work with an account manager who is based just down the road from us.

Comvita, Paengaroa, Bay of Plenty, New Zealand, Product Development Manager Elliot Sjardin -

Convex are able to bring a lot of options to the table when it comes to developing new packaging. They are definitely leaders in fresh cut packaging and working with them is helping us bring new innovations to our industry.
