Value Engineering

We support customers in delivering cost-effective packaging solutions across both tray and flexible film formats through practical value engineering initiatives.

Opportunities include downgauging tray thickness (micron), optimising existing designs, and converting structures such as rPET/PE to mono-material rPET where appropriate. For flexible films, we can also review material structures and specifications to reduce gauge, optimise performance, and remove unnecessary material usage while maintaining sealing and barrier requirements.

These adjustments can help reduce overall material consumption, improve pack efficiency, and support sustainability objectives without compromising packaging performance or presentation.
By reducing overall pack weight across trays and films, customers can also benefit from lower material costs and reduced Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) exposure, helping to drive down the total cost of packaging ownership.

We work closely with customers to review existing specifications and identify commercially viable opportunities for cost savings, sustainability improvements, and supply chain efficiency across their packaging portfolio.
