CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE )--ProAmpac, the fast-growing flexible packaging leader, today offers the latest innovations in the company’s flexible packaging products for the pet food industry.
“From retort pouches and roll stock to quad-seal and woven polypropylene bags, ProAmpac has a ‘petfolio’ of products that deliver high performance and value to the pet food market,” said Market Manager Julie Conklin, at the April 23-25 Petfood Forum 2018 in the Kansas City Convention Center.
“We invite conference goers to visit us at Booth 835 and meet our team to learn about ProAmpac’s approach to the pet food market,” said Julie Conklin.

“In pet food packaging, rapid innovation means having the agility to move ahead in response to change,” Grose said.
For example, he noted that Packaged Facts, a division of MarketResearch.com, recently announced a report on Trust and Transparency it will present at Petfood Forum. Concluding the consumer transparency trend will affect pet food, the researchers suggest that pet food brands “could benefit from an image refresh that reflects the visual conventions of clean label products,” itself an extension of the clean eating trend.
“We have been able to help customers sharpen their labeling through package design. ProAmpac’s award-winning printing, multiple graphic design centers, our LEAD Academy and the DASL, Design and Sample Lab, help customers to address the clean label trend and other changes in consumer preference,” Grose said.
“We are paying close attention to trends,” Grose continued. “We are meeting rising consumer demand for smaller packages; preferences for premium and super-premium pet food and the packaging that goes along with this; the Millennial Generation’s affinity for pet ownership—76 percent of them— expressing a ‘pets over people’ attitude; as well as the march for e-commerce purchasing which creates demand for lighter, stronger packaging that minimizes material usage.”
