Falling prey to the human behaviour, we as shoppers tend to buy products that are beautifully packed and presented. Companies tend to feed on this behaviour to serve us their products in multi coloured and designed packaging - a treat to the eyes. But do we as consumers ever go beyond the packaging to know how the chemicals and plastics used in these packaging impact our health? The toxic secrets of food and beverage packaging are as toxic as it can get. Most food packaging chemicals and plastics migrate into food and beverages, causing a range of health impact including cancer, endocrine disruptions, and more. But it is high time we adopt ecofriendly, sustainable and 100 percent recyclable packaging materials.

Educating and guiding the food and beverage industry to walk this road is Multiflex Polybags Pvt. Ltd., a Chennai based leading flexible and printed polythene packaging company offering a range of ecofriendly, sustainable and 100 percent recyclable packaging materials. Started its journey in 1963 as Mahendra Enterprises dealing in the trading of paper bags and cellophane bags, the company started its manufacturing facility in 1989 as Shree Navkar Polymers, manufacturing shopping carry bags and grocery packaging bags. Later due to huge technological change, it underwent a huge expansion in 2003 as Multiflex. This unit is equipped with state-of-the-art imported Central Impression flexographic printing machine(first-of-its-kind in Southern India). Today the company manufactures all kinds and sizes of customized carry bags,
