Bag-In-Box for Baby Formula
What is Bag-in-Box (BIB) Packaging?
Bag-in-box packaging consists of a plastic bag, typically made of multiple layers of film, within a corrugated box. The plastic bag holds the product, while the corrugated box serves as a protective shell. Product is dispersed via a spout or fitment.
We’ll discuss the benefits of BIB as it pertains to laundry detergent packaging. Read on to learn more:
Benefits of Bag-in-Box for Baby Formula Packaging
Bag-in-box packaging can save the food industry tens of thousands of dollars. This packaging extends shelf life, which means companies don’t need to add preservatives to their products. What’s more, bag-in-box packaging is more space-efficient than other packaging options. This significantly lowers storage and transportation costs. It’s also a selling point when promoting your product to grocery stores and supermarkets.
Other BIB Packaging Benefits
- Safety: The protective nature of BIB packaging makes it an ideal format for baby formula packaging. The bag part of the package is a reinforced structure that’s designed to prevent leaks and ensure product integrity. The outer corrugated box enhances product protection by providing a shell.
- Sustainability: We’ll get into more of this in the next section, but BIB packaging is recyclable.
- Branding potential: A more brand-centric benefit of BIB packaging is the opportunity for companies to develop unique branding and marketing on the packaging. Rather than applying labels to a rigid plastic bottle, companies can brand all four sides of the box to help their products stand out on the store shelf and create competitive advantages.
