Zip-Chem® Products adapts package designs from other industries and invents new products to meet the needs of the aircraft maintenance markets.
Zip-Chem® Products currently partners with Andpak, a Morgan Hill, CA packaging company, so that packaging solutions can be provided for Zip-Chem® ‘s chemical products.
Packaging Solution Needs![Bottle and Cans](https://zipchem.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/AdobeStock_95631558-300x205.jpeg)
New materials in aircraft manufacturing, new and changing aviation maintenance products and procedures, and cost optimization pressure continue to create demand for new packaging solutions. Zip-Chem® Products welcomes these challenges and encourages customers and potential clients to contact the company to learn about Zip-Chem® ‘s products and solutions.
Systems For Packaging and Mixing
The company offers pre-mixed frozen materials and sealed two-component packaging/mixing systems. These include:
- Clip-paks(r)
- Special Syringe Packages
- Injection
- Barrier Kits
- Combination Mixing and Application Devices, such as Two Component Syringes and Foil-Paks
Benefits of Packaging Systems![Custom Dosing Packaging](https://zipchem.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/custom_dosing-300x300.png)
Zip-Chem® packaging systems address environmental and occupational health concerns. Some of these packaging systems include non-ozone depleting aerosol technology and simple hand pump sprays. These systems place a controlled amount of product at precisely the point of need. This strategy reduces waste and minimizes build-up.
Cartridge systems and specialized mixing and spray applicators also facilitate cost savings through bulk packaging and carefully controlled product applications.
Success of Packaging Systems
Zip-Chem® ‘s packaging systems are successful because they are flexible for customers.
Short runs in material packaging are common and encouraged.
Zip-Chem® meets a site’s needs without having to ship large quantities of product. Additionally, Zip-Chem® ‘s substantial international distribution ensures that the cost efficiencies attained while larger batch runs remain in place regardless of an individual order.
