Beverage Packaging
At Futamura, we understand that the quality of your tea, coffee and powdered drinks is paramount. That’s why we’ve developed Cellophane™ – renewable flexible films and NatureFlex™ —compostable and renewable packaging films designed to preserve the integrity, flavour and aroma of your beverages, all while supporting your sustainability goals.
Weather bags, pouches, capsules, sachets or sticks, the Futamura team has packaging solutions that balance circularity and functionality.
Beverage Packaging Expertise
In order to maintain the aromatics and rich flavours that are crucially important to your beverage products, the right packaging can make the difference between a winning SKU and a stale blend. As a category that is extremely sensitive to UV light, moisture and oxygen, and usually has a long lifespan (1-2 years), we know that finding the right packaging can often be one of your brand’s biggest challenges.
At Futamura, we are no strangers to the beverage industry. With NatureFlex™ compostable packaging films, our long list of customers agrees that our cellulose films are the perfect solution for meeting their complex needs.
