BRIEF:

Australian Bridge Products take the quality of their product seriously and needed bags to match. The company has over 20 years of experience as a leading local manufacturer of compounds and epoxy kits for civil and bridge repair construction products. The team approached Upac for a custom bag design when they realised they were missing out on the opportunity to showcase their brand on the special sands in their epoxy kits.

Prior to choosing Upac, Australian Bridge Products supplied their products in plain polywoven bags or paper sacks. The company wanted new bags that would include their new brand image and ensure their new labelling on the sands matched the epoxy kits.  Upac took time to understand the Australian Bridge Products business, and the range of products that required specialist packaging. The result was a custom branded design from Upac that featured a see through window in the packaging. The new bags provided consistent and enhanced branding, when compared to previous plain bags.

Each custom bag also features the Duraplas recycling symbols. Each bag is fully recyclable through the REDcycle program, which transforms Duraplas bags and other soft plastics into a wide range of new products. Some include outdoor benches and play equipment, bins and even road base. The handy symbols make it even easier for consumers to re-use and recycle.

Additionally, Upac has partnered with the company to reduce the stress of supply chain management – and ships their custom printed bags right when they need them. This means they can reduce the amount of stock required on hand, yet increases the certainty of supply.

Australian Bridge Products lead times are unrivalled and they have a commitment to manufacture locally so this was an important consideration.

The new bags are cost effective, are strong enough to contain the weight of the special sands, and the branding makes a great first impression.
