South African company KiddieKix has chosen Innovia Films’ NatureFlex compostable packaging for its all-natural children’s health products.

Founder Alison McDowell said the company wanted to create an entirely eco-sustainable product, including the packaging. She believes the use of NatureFlex flexible packaging film strengthens KiddieKix’s product philosophy because it matches the company’s core messages.

The NatureFlex films are independently certified to meet the American ASTM D6400 and European EN13432 standards for compostable packaging. They begin life as wood sourced from certified plantations operating good forestry principles, and offer a range of features for packing and converting such as high seal strength and integrity, good gas, aroma, UV light and mineral oil barrier, grease and chemical resistance, dead fold and anti-static properties, enhanced printing and conversion.
