For ice cream, as with many items, the packaging should balance eye-catching aesthetics with robust protection. Premium packaging not only extends the product's shelf life but also drives sales and amplifies brand visibility.

While a lot of customers purchase ice cream on impulse, the appeal and brand image become one of the biggest factors for ice cream packaging manufacturers. In these circumstances, the design excellence and superior quality of the packaging are crucial for elevating sales and surpassing competitors.

There is an ample choice of composites for ice cream pouches and wrappers. Uniflex experts will take multiple factors into account to choose the best combination that suits both your packaging needs and your vision. Main combinations are:

SCHEME 1. Packaging based on transparent and metallized polypropylene films offers high protection for the chocolate coating — the thin layer of aluminum foil provides good insulation from the environment, greatly improving shelf life and design options.

• oriented transparent polypropylene film (good barrier properties against water vapours, high transparency)
• oriented metallized polypropylene foil (good protection against moisture, reflects sunlight)

SCHEME 2. Pearl-white polypropylene film is ideal for ice cream pouches: it has a porous foamed structure, which is light and looks extremely white, allowing for unrestricted design concepts.

• pearl-white polypropylene film (good water condensate blocking properties, high level of whiteness)

SCHEME 3. This is a single-layer laminate. Oriented transparent polypropylene film is used to emphasize the attractiveness of the product. 

• oriented transparent polypropylene film (good barrier properties against water vapours, high transparency)

Mono PE — consists of several layers of polyethylene. Can be barrier and non-barrier, transparent and full color. Suitable for replacing PET / PE structures.

Mono PP — it consists of several layers of polypropylene. It can also be barrier and non-barrier.
