Collinsville, Ill.-based packaging manufacturer Sev-Rend says it has added hot needle micropreforating and in-register macropreforating abilities to its perforated flow wrap, form fill and seal and lidding film offerings.

Sev-Rend can customize the perforation pattern and hole size specifications for fruit and vegetable packs, and the inline hot microneedle perforations are best suited for microwavable, steamable packaging, according to a news release.

“Rather than having a one-size-fits-all-all mentality, we understand that successful product and packaging development is a partnership,” Darren Harvey, Sev-Rend product development manager, said in the release. “We listen to our customers, make sure we have a clear understanding of their needs and work together to create the right solution for them.”
