Moving Forward Packaging Greener
Moving Forward Packaging Greener
Returning from a successful PACK EXPO show, we catch up with Jessica Nick from PAC Machinery Bags and Materials Division where she provides an update in Episode 13 of “On the Pulse of Packaging” about moving forward packaging greener.
With Pack Expo Las Vegas las month, show attendees were able to see a lot of cool stuff in the area of sustainable packaging which has become a leading goal for companies across this country in every industry. At PAC Machinery’s exhibit, attendees were able to see both machine and sustainable bagging material options.
In this episode, Shannon and Jess talk about moving forward post-show and sustainable bagging options for packaging machinery including PAC’s bags being all made with a minimum of 25% recycled resigns, allowing companies to package more responsibly as standard without sacrificing quality or price with bag orders from PAC Machinery.
Since the big packaging show, people are also asking a lot about the NEW Fiberflex® paper packaging that is available for baggers and the NEW PAC Machinery FW 650SI Flow Wrapper. Fiberflex paper allows a company to ditch plastic completely and bag with a curbside recyclable paper option. It is avialable for the 650 model flow wrapper and on certain models of PAC’s Rollbag bagging machines.
Info in this episode also includes what to do if you are a new packaging distributor and information on additional benefits when you buy your bags and machine from PAC Machinery.
This great conversation also includes Jess’s thoughts on post show customer reactions to the PAC exhibit. Watch the full episode to learn more in this episode of “On The Pulse of Packaging.”

Coming back from a successful Pack Expo show, we have Jessica Nick with us. She was at the show at the Bags and Materials exhibit inside the PAC Machinery booth and she’s going to give us a little follow up, Jess…..
Hi Shannon…it was great to see everybody at the Pack Expo exhibit. It was great to be within the top 20 of the exhibitors. We were really proud of that and I think that the sustainable bags was really an important talking point for a lot of people because everybody wants to make sure that they have a sustainable option and a greener way to move forward with their packaging.
What was some of your feedback at the show when you were talking to people who were very interested that we use recycled resins as our default?
All of our products can be sustainable without sacrificing quality or increasing price. People were also really interested in our new Fiberflex® line of heat sealable paper. I think it will be the move in the future for sure.
Excellent!
I want to thank everybody for stopping by. We had a great time meeting people during the show and at our happy hour on Monday night. That was terrific.

It will extend your warranty for 1 year to 5 years. Also, the bags are able to be used on other automatic baggers. Correct, that is correct.
