FAQ

No. FLEXA constitutes a drop-in technology available for any existing strip pack line without any modification. 

The secret behind is the opening aid APERTA, an innovative micro-perforation system which allows the pushing through of the laminate without damaging the barrier.

Yes. A proper material design results in a wide range of pushing-through forces. The design of the material can be individually adapted and can also be designed as a child-resistant/senior-friendly version.
