In India, increasing population and growing use in the food\nprocessing industry are driving continuous growth in the pulses market. Pulses\nare a staple of the Indian diet, especially for a significant section of\nIndia’s population which is vegetarian and relies on pulses for its source of\nprotein. There is also a revived interest in pulses as they are considered\nhealthier than wheat or rice flour, and are being used increasingly for making\n‘healthy’ snacks, mithai, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pulses are marketed as a raw whole as well as dehusked\nsplit. For marketing of pulses, quality of product becomes of prime importance.\nCleaned and well-graded whole grains fetch higher prices. For dehusked splits,\nbetter packaging is required to reduce post-milling losses and to increase acceptability\nof consumers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Deterioration and losses of products, during transport and storage depend upon a series of physical, chemical, biological and human factors. Proper packaging is an important element in reducing losses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While flexible packaging<\/strong><\/a> in general is the\npopular packaging for pulses, cereals and grains, the Stand Up Pouch has\ngrabbed the attention of brands to better promote, protect, and drive sales of their\nproducts.

Puncture-resistant films can be used to safeguard your products during\ntransport & warehousing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Visibility:<\/strong>\nThrough use of transparent pouches or window pouches, companies can let buyers\nsee the contents of the pack, thereby inspiring confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Branding:<\/strong>\nThrough Rotogravure printing or flexographic printing, one can print bright\ncolours and graphics to strengthen brand presentation and build strong visual\nappeal for sales. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Convenience: <\/strong>With\nadd-ons like resealable closures, stand up pouches offer a better customer\nexperience.
