Custom PE Packaging FAQ

Flexon Pack manufactures custom ziplock bags, zipper and slider bags, self-adhesive bags, flat poly bags, liners, PE tubing and packaging film. Product structure, material and performance are confirmed according to the packed product and intended use.

Standard options include virgin LDPE, LLDPE and HDPE. CPE, recycled-content PE, anti-static formulations, colored film and other project-specific materials may also be available. Each formulation has separate performance and documentation requirements.

Bag widths are generally available from 30 to 750 mm, with film thicknesses from 30 to 150 microns. Gravure or flexographic printing may support up to 8 colors. Final ranges depend on bag structure, artwork, film, packed-product weight and production review.

There is no universal MOQ for every custom product. MOQ depends on dimensions, thickness, resin, closure, printing colors and packing. Existing samples may be available for evaluation, and custom prototypes can be arranged when required. Sample quantity is not the mass-production MOQ.

Eligible plain products typically require 7–10 days. Custom orders normally require 15–20 days after the specification, material, artwork, samples and order details are approved. Shipping time is quoted separately.

Food-contact options are available when the selected resin, additives, colorants, printing inks and finished construction are suitable for the intended food and conditions of use. Buyers may request the relevant SGS analytical report against FDA 21 CFR 177.1520. One material report is not blanket approval for every product.

Available evidence may include material declarations, SGS food-contact testing, PFAS screening, REACH documentation, CTI RoHS testing, and ISO 9001 or ISO 14001 management-system certificates. Document coverage must be checked against the exact material and finished specification.

Production controls may cover incoming material identification, dimensions, film gauge, appearance, printing, closure or adhesive construction, side seals and packing. Approved specifications, production records and applicable inspection results support consistency and traceability between orders.

• Product type and finished dimensions
• Packed product and unit weight
• Preferred material and thickness
• Order quantity and expected repeat volume
• Artwork, printing colors and coverage
• Destination country and intended application
• Required reports, packing method and shipping destination

Yes. Cartons, inner bags, pallets and moisture-protection options can be configured for export orders. Freight method, shipping cost, delivery time, customs documents and trade terms are confirmed in the formal quotation for the selected destination.

Selection starts with the packed product, dimensions, unit weight, opening frequency, packing process, transport conditions and target appearance. Ziplock bags suit compact press-to-close storage; zipper or slider bags support larger and frequent-access packaging; self-adhesive bags use a fold-over adhesive flap; flat bags provide a simple open-top or heat-sealable enclosure; and PE film is supplied for wrapping, tubing or downstream conversion.

Standard PE packaging should not automatically be used as sterile, leak-proof, vacuum-rated, retort, oven-safe, child-resistant, tamper-evident, dangerous-goods or electrostatic-shielding packaging. These applications require a specialist construction, defined test method and acceptance criteria. Buyers should provide the applicable regulation or performance standard before sampling and quotation.
