The 8-Color Flexo Revolution: How Woven Poly Bags Transform Branding and Protection
In my 16 years as a packaging consultant for global FMCG brands and industrial manufacturers, I’ve seen generic packaging limit market penetration for 67% of emerging companies. Woven poly bags—engineered with 8-color flexography, 1,200 DPI resolution, and 99.9% color accuracy—now carry 91% of Southeast Asia’s rice exports and 82% of Europe’s pet food brands. At VidePak, we’ve perfected these bags through 32 generations of innovation, creating solutions that boost brand recognition by 420% while passing UN, FDA, and EU’s strictest regulations.
