Your packaging is just as important as your product. If you sell potatoes, you want to make sure they are packaged securely and reliably. No hassle with bags that may look good but quickly tear or don't do their job.
Bag loader bags are specifically designed for the fast, automatic packing lines of, among others, industrial bakeries for various types of bread, but also for, for example, vegetables and fruit. Bag loader bags are available in various types and are all freezer-resistant.
Bracket bags are specially developed for manually packaging items such as bread and various other types of articles. By hanging the bags on a bracket, you can easily remove and fill the bag. Bracket bags are available in various types and are all freezer-safe.
AVI manufactures plastic tube film and half-tube film for many custom applications. AVI knows how important a continuous and worry-free packaging process is. That is why our company is committed daily to monitoring and improving the quality of our plastic tube film products.
Container covers are used for covering and keeping (roll) containers and their contents clean. This protects the contents from dirt, dust, moisture, insects, and spoilage. They are used in various sectors, such as the food industry, catering, healthcare institutions, hospitals, laundries, and many more.
FFS film, also known as Form Fill Seal film, is a film suitable for the fastest automatic packaging lines. For example, for packaging food, frozen products, chemical products, and so on. With FFS film, the possibilities are almost endless. There is hardly any standard assortment, because there is a wide choice in size, thickness, color, and printing. We can offer a tailor-made solution for every request.
From stretch film that stabilizes your pallet load to machine film. AVI produces standard and custom films for every conceivable application to protect the contents from dust, damage, and/or weather conditions. Whether shrinkable, smooth, colored, or composed of multiple layers.
Shrink film is a special plastic film used to shrink-wrap products. When heated, the film shrinks tightly around products. This can be used for both individual products and to neatly package multiple products together.
The packaging of a pallet is crucial. After all, you want your goods to arrive intact at their destination. During transportation and both long- and short-term storage of your products, pallet sheets provide the right protection against weather conditions, moisture, dust, and dirt.
Plastic bags come in many types and sizes, dimensions, and thicknesses. Before we start producing your plastic bag, we determine what it will be used for. Will it be an industrial plastic bag, a bread bag, or a furniture cover?
For the magazine and mailing industry, we produce special machine film. This film protects the mailing or magazine and allows multiple brochures to be bundled. Usually, the clear transparent LDPE film is chosen, but we also have various colored films in our range.
Webshop bags and shipping envelopes are both used for sending materials. Webshop bags are generally used for products, while shipping envelopes are typically used for sending paperwork.
In addition to webshop bags and shipping envelopes, AVI Volendam also sells transparent bags with adhesive strip. These bags are usually made from LDPE and polypropylene materials such as CPP and OPP, but MDPE is also used. Because polypropylene bags are made of beautiful glossy materials, this type of bag is extremely suitable for display in stores.
