Flexible packaging is soft, lightweight, bags or pouches sealed using heat or pressure, ideal for use for products that aim for high utility at low packaging cost, such as soaps and detergent refills, snacks, etc. For example, stand up pouches with a ziplock, laminated tubes, vacuum pouches, etc. In keeping with the name, flexible packs can be modified or customized with ease. They are manufactured at low costs but offer minimal protection from compression or perforation.
