Packmedia

Anything is possible

Communication on packaging has always been a challenge when moving beyond a brand name and design. The sheer volume of information required to communicate the benefits and content of a product often reduces the font size and graphics to borderline legibility. Pyrotec PackMedia’s solutions removes that limitation. These solutions allow you to multiply several times over the area used for your communication on your packaging. Plus, there is unlimited potential for promotional and value-added opportunities. The range includes:

Expanded Content Labels – Informational Fix-a-Form® fix-a-form-01
Expanded Content Labels – Promotional Fix-a-Form® fix-a-form-02
On-Pack Promotional Devices – ElastiTag® elastitag
Merchandising Solutions – Do-It® Hang Tabs doit

Pyrotec PackMedia’s concept-to-application service is tailor-made for each client to achieve the most cost-effective innovative solution possible. To achieve this they also provide an extensive range of labelling equipment. The possibilities are endless. All that’s needed is your idea.
