packaging for Burgopak
Sigpack Systems, a Bosch Packaging Technology company, and Burgopak have together developed a new packaging line
The system concept is suitable for a multitude of packaging formats. Applications include pharmaceutical, luxury and consumer goods. Burgopak packaging design employs a patented operating system that presents the product in a sliding tray. This innovative packaging is simple to handle, and is particularly functional in terms of added value marketing.
