When it comes to packaging, what’s on the inside is only half the equation. The materials used to contain and protect your product can make or break its shelf life, safety, and performance. At Custom Pak Illinois (CPI), we understand that choosing the right packaging material is just as critical as the formulation itself—especially for chemical, personal care, and industrial products.
With decades of experience in contract packaging services, we help clients make strategic material choices that safeguard their formulations, ensure compliance, and deliver long-lasting product integrity.
Why Packaging Materials Matter
Sensitive products—especially those with active chemical ingredients, volatile compounds, or specific pH ranges—can degrade quickly if packaged in the wrong material. Poor packaging can result in leaching, evaporation, hardening, or reactivity that affects product performance or safety.
That’s why CPI emphasizes material selection in all of our turnkey packaging programs. Before we fill a single pouch, tube, bottle, or pipette, we assess your formulation’s chemical profile to ensure compatibility with packaging substrates.
Tailored Materials for Every Application
We offer a wide range of packaging materials designed to meet your product’s specific needs.
Our co packing solutions are built around selecting the best fit for your product’s viscosity, volatility, and intended use. Whether you need contract tube filling services, bottle filling services, or a high-barrier pouch filling service, CPI delivers material expertise you can count on.
Extending Shelf Life with Smarter Packaging
Packaging plays a direct role in shelf stability. The right barrier film or tube layer can prevent oxygen infiltration, UV degradation, or chemical migration—preserving product efficacy over time.
Our team works closely with clients during the design phase to select materials that support longer shelf life, reduce spoilage, and minimize product returns. This is especially important for clients using our contract pouch filling and sachet filling companies services, where single-use applications require maximum protection in minimal packaging.
Built-In Protection, Built-In Compliance
Material selection isn’t just about performance—it’s about safety and regulatory compliance. CPI ensures all packaging materials meet the necessary certifications for your industry and product category. Whether you’re filling consumer goods or regulated industrial chemicals, we match packaging materials to your formulation and market standards.
