Not only for pharma – the Enflex pouches
Popular in different fields of consumer goods, from confectionery to beverage, the pouch solutions developed by the Spanish company are ideal for the pharmaceutical industry. In this industry, Volpak and Enflex machines are typically used for the forming and manufacturing of “flat pouch” type flexible packaging in the single or double version, typically used for the packaging of products such as powder and granules for medical or veterinary use. The flat pouch is also an ideal choice for the packaging of products such as wipes and cotton swabs. The Spanish company’s machines can also be used in by makeup and health care businesses thanks to the airtightness and sturdiness of the packaging.
