The Awards, previously run by DuPont, are the industry’s longest-running independently judged awards program. Recognising innovations and trends in packaging design, materials, technology and processes across the entire packaging value chain, judging criteria is based on technological advancement, responsible packaging and enhanced user experience.
SANZIP’s Sensory zipper is available as a single, double or triple type zipper and is produced in LDPE. The innovation combines both audible characteristics and a tactile sensation, together with an excellent inner holding force and easy close features. Through its unique features, the zipper provides a unique and premium action that differentiates itself from standard closures by using both sound and touch sensations to aid and improve the closing experience of the product.
Manufactured by C.I. TAKIRON, the leading Japanese manufacturer of re-closable zipper products, the Sensory range is unique to the SANZIP’s product portfolio, assisting in meeting increased demand for re-sealable packaging with zip locks. SANZIP zippers are distributed in the UK by leading films distributor, Plasfilms.
Commenting on the award, Plasfilms’ Stephen Harpham said: “This a fantastic achievement for SANZIP and well deserved. The Sensory range represents a cutting-edge innovation in zipper technology that provides consumers with a number of key benefits, not least the creation of confidence and certainty in the mechanics of the closure operation itself.”
Plasfilms is one of the UK’s leading distributors of films and supply chain services for businesses across the packaging and labelling industry. The business represents some of the most respected plastics manufacturing organisations both in Europe and Worldwide.
