In order to test the paper pouches and integrate them into the production process, Faller Packaging co-operated with the machine manufacturer Gerhard Schubert<\/a>. As part of a test run, various products such as blister packs and pens were packaged in the prototypes of the printed pouches. Particular attention was paid to durability and functionality, which must meet industry standards.<\/p>\n
