A sachet is a small plastic or paper or cloth packet that contains a small amount of liquid or powder product.
Sachets are usually smaller sealed flexible bags made from various flexible packaging materials. Sachets are manufactured using materials such as aluminium foil, paper, cellulosic, plastic and cloth. Sachets are a part of a compact package, sealed from all sides, unitized or single dose packing used for retail sale or sampling.

What is in a Sachet?

Sachet Packaging
Sachets are most likely used to contain products in the form of liquid, powder, or pastes, such as tea, coffee, detergents, shampoo, mouth fresheners, ketchup, spices, cream, lubricant, oil, sugar, and sauces.

The major users of this form of packaging are sectors such as cosmetic & personal care, food & beverage, and the pharmaceutical industry. The reason that it is used so extensively is that sachets are cheaper than large size packets and take up less storage space, easy to buy due to their very less cost. The Sachets are used for packaging products that are generally targeted toward, lower income groups such as. poor or middle class consumers who are price-sensitive and would always prefer a cheaper form of the product.

How Sachet Machines Work?


Sachet Packing Machine ModelThe packaging roll is installed in a given roll mounting shaft which has roll unwinding fitment. Unwinding length is controlled by sensors. The roll is mounted on the top side of the machine. In mechanical models roll unwinding is done by pouch length pulling rollers. After unwinding the film roll pass through one folding collar where it takes the form of a tube. The Machine can be attached to an online printer also known as a date stamping machine. The date is stamped by fitting the film over the sliding rollers.

The said Film is under constant pressure to make sure that the film stays in its place while the machine is doing vertical sealing and pulling. Pouch length is decided by the print mark which is printed on the packing film and censored by the print mark sensor.

There is a pair of round horizontal sealers which has a cutting knife of various designs as per pouch requirement. Horizontal sealing can be of different patterns like line type or diamond type impression. During this unwinding, forming, tube formation and horizontal sealing process products are filled in the formed tube just before the horizontal sealing.

Depending on products like cup filler for granular products, and syringe filler for liquid products, a suitable filling system will be fitted on a sachet packer machine. Sachets can be side seals or centre seal designs. Side seal designs have 3 side seal or 4 side seal patterns.

This selection of design depends on market trends in that particular industry.

The Advantages of Sachet Machine


Now you may be wondering why use a sachet machine for packaging? Here is the answer:

  • Affordable:

Sachets are far more of an economical solution than traditional methods of packaging different products in multiuse packs. This is due to a various number of reasons, *packaging cost of sachets is far lower than plastic/glass bottles and containers; tubes * sachets take up far less space and less weight reducing storage cost * Product reach and customer base increase as anyone can afford to buy sachet and use it.

  • Customisable:

Every brand wants to make its product attractive and packaging is a great way for the brands to market their product. It is easier to print directly onto sachets to make them attractive. Hence By customising your sachet design, you are promoting your business to the buyers.

  • Easier Transporting and Storage:

As the size and weight of the sachets are on the lower side, the costs associated with secondary packing, product handling, transporting and storing the product are reduced. This reduces the manufactures operating cost.

Disadvantages of Use of a Sachet Machine



  • Bad for Environment:

As the sachets are a one time used pack, once used people tend to throw them in the garbage. Due to its small size, no one is ready to collect it and recycle it as it’s not cost-effective. For sachet making packaging material is mainly multilayer laminate and it will not degrade for years when it goes into landfills. The result of such a huge quantity of sachets is bad for the environment. The frequency of the product being purchased by the consumer is increased. This leads to an increase in carbon footprint.

  • Use of product:

Sachet is a small size which contains less amount of product compared to plastic or metal bottle, container or cans. Products stick to the inner side of the flexible packing material and are not dispensed fully. Sometimes these sachets are difficult to open through provided cuts and products spills and loss.

  • Need automatic machines:

The bulk packaging can be done manually during the starting phase but sachet packing can be done on the packaging machine only. Filling small quantities and sealing small sachets is a tedious job. So investment in packaging machines is required.

Conclusion:

For any product based business sachets can be a great way to attract new customers. sachets give consumers a chance to experiment and find out what works and what doesn’t about your product and they can start as a small consumer buying only 1 sachet and then move on to become a permanent customer.

Consumers are more sceptical to buy a product in a large quantity before knowing how they feel about it. Investing in a Sachet Packing Machine lets your product reach out to more people and Increases your market share.
