Traditionally, sealants and adhesives are filled in cartridges, which are associated with high material, transportation, and disposal costs. The clip-pak^® system from Poly-clip System GmbH & Co. KG offers a flexible alternative: tubular packaging that is securely closed with clips. This reduces material consumption and provides an optimum barrier against moisture and oxygen, which improves the shelf life of the products. In addition, clip-pak enables easier and more efficient emptying of the packaging.

Clip closure solutions have always been more sustainable than many alternatives that package viscous food and non-food products in cans, plastic cartridges, or cups. A study by the Fraunhofer Institute UMSICHT confirmed how climate-friendly sausage packaging with clip closures are. According to the study, they save up to 61% of climate-damaging greenhouse gas emissions compared to injection moulded cups and even 81% compared to thermoformed packaging.
