Packaging has to meet a variety of requirements. Opening behaviour is crucial for the customer in terms of product acceptance. Both user-friendliness and an ageing society have to be considered. Not only senior citizens wish to have easy-to-open packages to take out their content effortlessly and cleanly.

Peelable packaging is used mainly for dairy products, meat and sausage products, cereals, coffee, animal feed and also detergents and cleaning agents as well as cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
