Clamshell Packaging allows the consumer high visibility of your product without sacrificing security. This form of packaging provides ample room for graphics and product information.

Clamshells can be sealed through several methods to meet your security and shelf impact needs. RF Welding seals all edges of the clam tightly so the package cannot be opened by hand at the store level. Snap together clams provide high product visibility in a package that can easily be opened and close. This option is great for multi-item packages where all of the products inside are not taken out of the package during the first use. In recent years, our customers have used fugitive glue (removeable, reusable glue) to seal their clamshells. This gives a slightly higher level of security but the ability to open and close the package if needed.

Our equipment includes rotary RF Welding machines to handle both small and large production runs. Opportunities has years of experience helping customers work through the entire process of packaging their products in clamshells. We can walk you through the process from thermoforming (making the clams), to insert card printing and die-cutting. Call Opportunities to discuss your clamshell needs.
