Australian Institute of Packaging (AIP) members were privy to a virtual tour of Zipform Packaging’s BRC grade AA accredited manufacturing site in Perth, Australia on 10 March, giving insight into the company’s manufacturing processes, and showcasing its latest technical developments and innovations.
Zipform Packaging is a sustainable packaging company focused on increasing the use of fibre as a functional packaging material, and its local manufacturing site is dedicated to the delivery of rigid composite packaging for food and non-food markets in the region.
Through the tour, participants gained a better understanding of Zipform’s processes and solutions, which are delivered on the region’s only linear formed composite pack manufacturing line.
A fully automated manufacturing process, initially, the material is fed at the front end of the line in four constituent layers: a food-grade liner, two layers of coreboard and a printed layer.
