Macro Perforation Packaging

Macro perforation is a packaging feature that creates larger ventilation holes, typically 6mm in diameter, within flexible packaging materials. These perforations allow for significant airflow and drainage, making them ideal for applications where maximum ventilation is required.

At Filton Packaging, macro perforation can be incorporated into a wide range of films, bags and sleeves, with perforation patterns customised to suit your product and packaging requirements. Suitable for food, agricultural and industrial applications, macro perforation helps optimise product ventilation while maintaining the strength and functionality of the packaging.
