Carded packaging which includes such processes as skin and blister packaging, clamshell packaging and Stretch Pak is a cost-effective way to offer a high level of security, visibility and marketability to small consumer & industrial products.

Skin Packaging refers to the process of applying plastic film to affix product to substrate of paperboard or corrugated sheet through the use of heat and vacuum.  Blister packaging involves applying pre-formed rigid plastic film to affix product to a paperboard substrate or to encapsulate product in a clamshell style unit.  Stretch Pak allows the product to be viewed in a 360-degree visibility format while being held securely in place with crystal clear DuPont Surlyn flexible film.

Whether you need tamper-resistant packaging such as clamshells, blister packs, inserts and trays, printed cards or other types of custom thermoformed packaging, Associated Packaging can solve your most complicated carded packaging needs by offering you a variety of  machinery, standard and custom packaging styles and materials, as well as turnkey services such as  professional design, construction, and printing services.

SP SERIES (Semi-Automatic Skin Packaging System) 

The SP Series equipment is extremely versatile. These systems are ideal to wrap display items, products for storage, and fragile goods for shipping.

The cycle is completely automatic, and also includes an automatic film cut-off system. The operator simply loads the skin board with the product, then activates the start button. Once the product has been skin-packed, the board is manually pulled out and the film is automatically severed with a hot wire. Manual infeed and outfeed tables are included as standard features.

All motions and functions on the machines are coordinated by PLC control panel with an operator interface touch screen (includes built-in diagnostics and password protection).
