Grip And Rip: Easy Tear-Open Packaging

Never fuss with sewn-top packaging again! Try a new membrane seal pouch with Fresh Lock® Grip And Rip for an easy and mess-free opening. This top makes a hermetically sealed package possible to protect the contents from infestation, moisture, and other contaminants. Consumers will appreciate the convenient tear bead, as they won’t have to grab a tool to open their package. Simply tear to open. Furthermore, this packaging feature looks great on shelves to help your brand stand out from the competition.

Concerns with Sewn-Top Packaging

Commonly featured on bulk bag applications, sewn-top packaging can be difficult and messy to open, creating unnecessary frustration for consumers. Sewn-top packages are not hermetically sealed, and they must be opened by ripping the thread and pouch, which can cause packaging particles to fall into the product and contaminate the contents. To eliminate the mess while enabling a hermetic seal for large-format pouches, the Fresh-Lock team developed Grip And Rip—an easy open packaging solution.

A New Solution for Bulk Packaging

Grip And Rip is convenient for single-use packaging that doesn’t need to be reclosed or kept fresh for extended periods of time. Grip And Rip’s easy tear is ideal for bulk products that consumers typically open once and use immediately or pour into a secondary storage container. Suitable applications for Grip And Rip include foodservice bulk ingredients, pet food/kibble, bird seed, livestock feed, water softener salt, agricultural applications, garden care, and more.
