What is Blister Packaging
Blister packaging is a type of clear plastic packaging that has a cavity or pocket to showcase and protect consumer goods on a shelf or retail display. It is usually attached to a paper backer card. This card has information about your product and can be seen through the blister packaging.
Types of Blister Packaging
There are several types of blister packaging including trapped blister, face seal blister, full face seal blister, slide blister or full card blister.
- A trapped blister is a thermoformed clear plastic container that is sandwiched between either a single folded card or two cards that are sealed together.
- A face seal blister is a plastic mold that surrounds a product and is then heat-sealed on the edges to a piece of backer board. The seal is only on the edge of the plastic blister called the flange while the rest of the card stays uncovered.
- A full-face seal blister is similar to the face seal blister; however, the plastic packaging extends to the entire face of the cards. This offers more durability and strength to the edges of the card and reinforces the hang tab as well.
- A slide blister is a plastic packaging that extends past the full size of the card and has flanges that wrap around. The card simply slides into place and is sometimes secured with a staple.
