Flatnets
Flatnets is extruded plastic packaging netting used for visible packaging of fruit, vegetables and dry foods, and as crate-top covers. Its open mesh structure allows the packaged product to be seen from outside and permits airflow.
Choose suitable netting according to product size, pack weight and packaging method. For automatic packing lines, the width and roll specifications must match the machine’s technical requirements.
Flatnets Applications
Flatnets can be considered for operations ranging from packaging products for retail sale to covering the tops of crates.
- Fruit and vegetable packaging: Select netting dimensions according to product size and target pack weight. Assess the mesh opening to ensure small products remain inside the pack.
- Dry food packaging: Check suitability by considering product structure, the risk of spillage and the required packaging conditions.
- Crate-top covers: Choose netting width according to the crate’s external dimensions and the allowance needed for securing the edges.
- Automatic packing: Consider the machine’s netting feed system, accepted dimensions and closure method together when choosing.
For applications involving direct food contact, request information confirming the selected product’s suitability for the intended conditions of use before ordering.
Why Choose Flatnets?
Packaging that keeps the product visible: The open mesh lets consumers see the contents. Product presentation on the shelf can also be considered when choosing netting colour and mesh size.
Sizing for different applications: Packaging and crate-top covers may require different widths. Selecting dimensions for the application helps avoid unnecessary material use and insufficient coverage allowance.
Suitability for the packing process: Before regular use, test the netting with the actual product and machine. Check feeding, cutting, closure and handling of the filled pack together.
When comparing Flatnets prices, the roll price alone is not enough. Compare roll length, netting width and weight per metre on the same basis. When calculating consumption per pack, include cutting length and application waste.
