Yes, Stick Pack Machines can be adapted to work with eco-friendly material, but certain adjustments may be necessary for optimal performance.
At Unified Flex, our Stick Pack Machines are designed to work with single-layer sustainable films, including:
Compostable Films – PLA, PHA, and biodegradable paper-based materials.
Recyclable Films – Mono-material polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP).
Since eco-friendly films may have different sealing properties and flexibility compared to traditional plastics, adjustments such as low-temperature heat sealing, optimized tension control, and enhanced film handling may be required.
Before transitioning to sustainable packaging, we recommend testing materials for compatibility and ensuring compliance with industry standards such as ASTM D6400, EN 13432, and FDA/EU food safety regulations.
At Unified Flex, we specialize in custom Stick Pack Machines engineered for single-layer sustainable films. If you’re looking to transition to sustainable packaging, contact us now.
