The premade gusseted, side-seal bags are converted by Peel Plastic using a 48-ga polyester from Celplast (Scarborough, Ontario, Canada) laminated with linear low-density polyethylene from Pliant (Schaumburg, IL) to 48-ga metallized holographic polyester from CFC Intl. (Chicago Heights, IL). The outer polyester is reverse flexo-printed in seven colors by Peel and includes registration marks for the pouch-making operations.
用雪花图案和金属化的微型谱系是一种全息基材是一种库存材料。Peel的客户服务经理David Truest报告称，转换器感到相信它能够找到适当的库存模式。这有助于保持成本，

“我们选择了CFC，了解我们收到的客户服务金额，”最真实的说明。“这是我们第一次与他们合作，他们非常乐于助人。”他说这个项目是Peel首次使用全息材料。
“We were a little concerned at the beginning with how the holo material would hold up to heat sealing on the bag sides and if there’d be any issues with delamination,” Truest explains, “but we really experienced nothing more than any other project where there’s something brand new.” The converter found that the snowflake pattern remains intact even after heat sealing.
After printing and laminating, the web is run on a pouch-making machine from Totani, which is represented in North America by Amplas (Green Bay, WI). The stand-up pouches were formed at a rate of 45 bags/min, Truest reports. The slider reclosure feature is applied inline in two steps, the first station that heat seals the reclosure track onto the substrate, and then a second station that attaches the slider piece. Truest points out that the slider track is sealed on one side of the pouch, which leaves the top open so that the bags can be filled and sealed by Benick using semi-automatic equipment.
