Amcor HortiFlex

Amcor Flexibles has been working in partnership with Dutch company Flora Holland to develop a modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) system for flow wrapped fresh flowers called Amcor HortiFlex, known at Flora Holland as FlowPack. The partnership of Flora Holland and Amcor Flexibles – two global leaders in their respective markets of horticulture and MAP packaging – has resulted in an exciting new innovation for the fresh cut flower market.

The principal benefits of using Amcor HortiFlex are seen in improved product quality and logistics.

The specially developed packs can be transported and displayed in store without the need for any water. This means an improved display, reduction in maintenance whilst in-store, increased distribution options and of course easy and mess free transportation for the final consumer.

Amcor Flexibles and Flora Holland are now bringing this exciting innovation to the global fresh cut flower market place so that the benefits can be utilised by all. Selected customers are currently launching products with tailored Amcor HortiFlex packaging applications for their specific market.
