Overview
With nearly 20 years of experience in the printing industry and international advanced production equipment, Shantou KingKong Packaging can bring any flexible packaging design to customers. And because we do it all in-house — from gravure printing to lamination, slitting, making pouches — you get your packaging faster and have complete control throughout the process.
Shantou KingKong Packaging can provide high-barrier packaging films to protect product integrity and extend the shelf life of your products. For products that are sensitive to oxygen, moisture, light, high barrier packaging is essential for preserving product quality.
High-barrier packaging
With product visibility becoming increasingly important to consumers — especially in food and beverage categories, high-barrier flexible packaging offers several benefits:
- Provides excellent oxygen and moisture barrier properties without sacrificing product visibility
- Cost-effective alternative to foil flexible packaging laminations
- Ideal not only for vertical form/fill/seal (VFFS) and horizontal form/fill/seal (HFFS) applications, but also for premade pouches (preventing foil fracture issues that can occur with foil flexible packaging laminations)
- Customizable barrier properties and sealant layers
High-barrier packaging can also be a valuable film choice for non-food items such as household chemicals and nutritious products. Our unique materials are tested and validated throughout the high-barrier lamination process to ensure optimum protection.
Kingkong’s experienced team of flexible packaging engineers work hard to understand the details of every requirement of products, to provide the latest flexible film technology to meet the specific lamination requirements of both food and non-food products.
Moisture barrier packaging
If your product requires extreme moisture protection, our high moisture barrier packaging materials will help you achieve just that. High-barrier packaging materials can be customied with protective layers and materials like film foil laminations, polyvinylidene chloride and high density polyethylene to keep unwanted moisture properties from entering the pouch or bag.
Moisture barrier packaging is a must for dry ingredient products such as powdered soup mixes and nutritional supplements.
We engineer high-barrier packaging with extremely low moisture vapor transmission rates (MVTR) to prevent moisture from reaching your product.Many products are ultra-sensitive to moisture, such as:
- Powders
- Rice/Grain
- Effervescent products
- Dry food ingredients
- Snack foods
Oxygen barrier packaging
Exposure to oxygen can affect the color, flavor, and aroma of sensitive products. Our oxygen barrier packaging utilizes materials that efficiently block oxygen transmission and eliminate oxygen within the package to preserve product integrity.
Some products need to reduce or remove oxygen transmission rates completely in order to effectively extend shelf life. Oxygen barrier packaging uses a special material coating that eliminates oxygen levels inside the pouch, which helps preserve your product’s color, flavor and aroma.
Matte/gloss packaging
Kingkong Flexible Packaging’s advanced printing capabilities allow us to tackle complex artwork with registered matte/gloss effects. The leading brands trust us for enhanced matte/gloss printing effects that are incredibly effective at drawing in consumers.
Using matte and gloss effects on your flexible packaging can be especially effective in highly competitive markets. Matte and gloss packages have been proven to stand out on shelves and encourage product handling from shoppers. The combination of the registered matte varnish contrasting with eye-catching high-gloss areas gives the graphics a feeling of depth, making the package impossible to ignore.
Matte/Gloss have the benefits
- Provides packaging with a three-dimensional look
- More consumer engagement; consumers are more likely to pick up the package to view
- he matte/gloss effects from different angles, making your package memorable and
- Boosting brand recognition

Recyclable flexible packaging
Sustainable packaging has become an important topic. Flexible packaging exerts less of an overall impact on the environment than most other types of packaging, but a downside of flexible packaging is that much of it isn't easily recyclable. And consumers are concerned now more than ever about what a package's end of life should be.
For brands seeking recyclable packaging, we offer recyclable packaging film laminations made from mono-material, 100% polyethylene (PE). Clean, dry, 100% PE pouches can be recycled at store drop-off locations found at many supermarkets and grocery stores.
100% polyethylene (PE) flexible packaging provides a win/win/win solution; the environment, consumers, and brands all benefit.
PE flexible packaging laminations can be further customized with moisture and/or oxygen barriers to meet performance requirements.
