If you follow the Squared Away blog, you’ll notice that we’ll be focusing on contract packaging in the upcoming weeks. And there’s a good reason for that. Since 2008, the contract packaging industry has more than doubled in growth, according to a report from the Contract Packaging Association. The report was published in 2014, so imagine the growth that has occurred since.
As growth continues, co-packers need a reliable adhesive to help them meet the increasingly complex packaging demands they face. Although a small part of the process, adhesives play a huge role in making sure product packaging remains intact until it reaches the consumer. Adhesive Squares double-sided tape, specifically, offers many advantages for the contract packaging industry.
