Services

At A-1 Creative Packaging our mission is to pursue new innovations to provide quality, cost-effective, environmentally conscious packaging while exceeding expectations in customer service and dependable, on-time delivery.

Blister Packaging

Blister packaging is a popular choice for product packaging due to its versatility and visibility. It consists of a clear, thermoformed plastic blister that is sealed to a printed card or foil. The product is securely held in place within the blister, offering protection from damage and tampering while allowing customers to see the product inside. Blister packaging is often used for items like pills, capsules, electronics, toys, and small consumer goods. It provides a professional and attractive presentation of the product while also offering a high level of protection during storage and transit. Blister packaging can be customized with printed graphics, logos, and product information, making it an effective tool for branding and marketing. Its tamper-evident design helps to ensure the integrity of the product, giving consumers confidence in their purchase.

Horizontal End Load Cartoning

Our two new ADCO horizontal end load carton machines are the solution for your new product launch or long or short term production runs. These continuous motion machines are capable of sealing a wide range of carton sizes at speeds of up to 60 cartons per minute. These machines were designed with flexibility and portability in mind, making them ideal for the most demanding production runs. 

Shrink Wrapping

Shrink wrapping is a packaging technique used to wrap products in a protective plastic film that shrinks when heat is applied, creating a tight seal around the items. The process begins with placing the product or products inside a sleeve or bag made of shrink film. The film is then heated using a heat tunnel, causing it to shrink and conform to the shape of the enclosed items. This creates a secure and tamper-resistant package that protects the contents from dust, moisture, and damage during storage and transit. Shrink wrapping is commonly used for a wide range of products, including electronics, and retail products. It is perfect for club packs.  Shrink wrapping is an effective and cost-efficient way to package products, providing a clear and professional presentation while also offering protection and security. Shrink wrapping can also be used for bundling multiple items together, creating multipacks or promotional packages that are visually appealing and easy to handle.

Kit Assembly

Kitting and sample packs are very popular as many companies rely on new product introductions and brand expansion to build their product portfolios.  Kit packaging consolidates multiple components or items into a single package, making it more convenient for consumers to use.  Instead of buying all the components separately consumers can acquire all the necessary parts in one package. As the cosmetics, household, food, and beverage categories grow, large CPGs, as well as smaller entrepreneurial establishments, are looking to the outside to help design, kit, then fulfill promotion or sample packs that will help create demand and entice buyers with a smaller portion of their product.
