FAQs – Canopy Beauty Packaging

Can you help me select the right material for my product?

Yes. Choosing the correct resin depends on product formulation, compatibility, size, weight, light, moisture or oxygen transmission, molding properties, decorating options, regulatory compliance, environmental factors, shelf appeal and other considerations. Please contact your Canopy sales representative for information and assistance.

Does PIR (post-industrial resin) perform as well as traditional plastic packaging?

Do you manufacture recycled plastic packaging?

What traditional plastic injection-molded packaging do you offer?

Do you provide color matching services?

Yes. Color matching reinforces product quality and brand integrity to ensure rich consistent color throughout every run. Choose frosted, metallic, pearl, sparkle, luminescent, translucent, or marbling in a gloss or dull finish. After you supply a Pantone number or plastic standard it takes 7 to 10 days for matching. We will then forward color chips for approval. Two chips must be signed and returned as approval standards. If the color match is rejected more than twice a set up fee may be required.

How do I order samples to test my products in your packaging?

How do I know if my product is compatible with the packaging?

Our long-term experience in manufacturing and plastic materials help ensure your products and packaging are well-suited for each other and meet or exceed stability, compatibility, barrier resistance and other quality standards. This is especially critical for products containing chemicals, oils, alcohol, or complex formulas. Ingredients can also sensitive to light, air, heat and moisture. To this end we work closely with your development personnel, testing laboratories, and suppliers. We provide sample components, pilot batches, material evaluations, analytics, process validations and other support services to ensure you packaging is compliant in all areas.

What is a mold?

What is plastic injection molding?

Plastic injection molding is a manufacturing process that forms products when heat-softened molding material (resin) is forced into a mold cavity where it cools and hardens into the desired shape. Used to make parts from tiny components to automobile body panels, injection molding is accomplished by large injection molding machines. Plastic injection molding is an ideal process for producing high volumes of the same object.
