The Inno-Lok patented technology is applied transversely to packaging films producing pre-zippered roll stock film which can be used in form, fill and seal packaging applications.
When compared to conventional non-zippered films, Inno-Lok provides a pre zippered roll stock solution with a reclosable feature.
It incurs no reductions in processing and filling speeds, no increase in scrap or set-up time and a savings of up to 25% in zipper material, claim Ampac.
It will be offered on coextruded surface printed films and laminated films, for both barrier and non-barrier end uses.
Pour & Lok is a foldable zipper applied to film in the side gusset area of the package creating a reclosable pour spout, with only three US companies owning the capability.
