What is Composite Packaging?

Composite packaging combines two or more different materials to achieve specific performance characteristics. Paper, plastic, aluminium, and other materials may be combined to provide strength, barrier protection, printability, or durability. Composite structures are common in flexible pouches, cartons, tubes, and beverage packaging. They are often designed around the requirements of the product and supply chain. Material selection should consider performance, end-of-life handling, and application requirements.
