Aluminum foil provides highly effective shielding against steam and gases. Aluminum packages thus offer a number of benefits including protection against moisture, gases, light and contaminants while preserving aromas and fragrances within.
NAKAJIMA METAL LEAF, POWDER Co. has had a long association with aluminum materials, beginning with the launch of Japan’s first aluminum foil product back in 1932. Today, we offer a choice of aluminum deposition, silica deposition and barrier film packaging materials. We can also create optimum package designs based on parameters such as shape of contents, filling rate during production, and distribution and storage time.

Easy Open packaging

There are a number of issues with conventional tear-open packaging: sometimes it doesn’t tear neatly, causing the contents to spill out; people can hurt themselves trying to open a package with their teeth when scissors are not readily available; and the designated point for opening the package can be hard to locate, especially for those with poor eyesight. Easy Open offers a user-friendly alternative, because the package can be torn open easily at any point, and it is designed to tear neatly from start to finish. Easy Open packaging is suitable for lamination and pouch applications. This modern solution upholds the spirit of the principle of universal design.

Tactile surface finishes

Package decoration tends to be associated with design elements and printing processes. At NAKAJIMA METAL LEAF, POWDER Co., however, we consider functionality in addition to design aesthetics.
For instance, tactile processing on one side of a package makes it easier to distinguish between front and back, even in the dark. And it can also be used to make a package easier to hold (particularly with wet hands) when applied to the handle or equivalent.
In this way, we offer a range of functional solutions to suit different requirements.
