Dairy milk is packaged in flexible, leak-proof formats to maintain freshness and convenience. The most common types of packaging used for dairy milk include:
1. Pouches (Produced by Vertical Form Fill Seal Machines)
Pouches are a cost-effective and efficient solution for dairy milk packaging. These are formed, filled, and sealed using Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) Machines to create pillow pouches, three-side seal pouches, or four-side seal pouches. This format is widely used for bulk milk packaging and ensures secure storage with minimal material waste.
2. Sachets (Produced by Sachet Machines)
Sachets or three-side and four-side seal pouches are small, sealed pouches designed for single-serving milk portions. They are produced using Sachet Machines, which operate at high speeds to package large volumes efficiently. Sachets are ideal for portion-controlled milk servings, commonly used in meal kits, travel packs, and food service applications.
3. Stick Packs (Produced by Stick Pack Machines)
Stick packs are narrow, tube-like pouches commonly used for single-serve liquid dairy products, such as liquid creamers or flavored milk shots. Stick Pack Machines create precise, easy-to-tear packaging that is compact and convenient for on-the-go use.
4. Stand-Up Pouches (Produced by Stand-Up Pouch Bagging Machines)
Stand-up pouches (Doy Style Pouches) offer resealable and premium packaging for dairy products. This format is ideal for milk, dairy beverages, and organic dairy products. Stand-Up Pouch Bagging Machines can accommodate spouts for easy pouring, making them a popular choice for retail milk packaging.
