Straightforward Packaging Advice from the Experts at Hegazy Pack
At Hegazy Pack, we work with food businesses, farmers, manufacturers, and retailers every day, and we hear many of the same packaging questions across different sectors. Whether you’re a startup, a wholesaler, or a seasoned exporter, your packaging choices matter for hygiene, durability, presentation, and compliance.
Here are the top 10 questions we receive from our customers, and the answers you’ve been looking for:
1️⃣ Is cling film safe for food packaging?
Yes. Our cling films are food-grade, BPA-free, and certified safe for direct contact with fresh produce, cooked foods, or raw items. They help lock in moisture, prevent contamination, and preserve freshness.
2️⃣ What’s the difference between shrink wrap and stretch wrap?
- Shrink wrap shrinks tightly around products when heated, perfect for retail packaging and securing food trays.
- Stretch wrap is elastic and wraps around pallets or grouped products to keep them stable during transit, no heat needed.
3️⃣ Can bubble wrap be used for food packaging?
Indirectly, yes. Bubble wrap is great for protecting glass jars, tins, and packaged goods. It cushions fragile items and helps maintain temperature, especially during transport. It should not be used in direct contact with unpackaged food.
4️⃣ Is mulch paper environmentally friendly?
Yes. Our mulch paper is biodegradable and soil-safe, making it perfect for agricultural applications. It reduces the need for herbicides, prevents soil contact, and supports cleaner harvesting.
5️⃣ Can I order custom-sized rolls or sheets?
Absolutely. We offer custom sizes and lengths for cling film, stretch wrap, shrink wrap, bubble wrap, and mulch paper based on your usage volume and packaging equipment.
6️⃣ How do I choose the right film thickness (microns)?
It depends on what you’re packaging:
- Light items = thinner film (10–15 microns).
- Heavy or sharp-edged items = thicker film (20–25+ microns).
We’re happy to advise based on your specific needs.
7️⃣ Do you deliver across Kenya and East Africa?
Yes. We deliver to Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu, Eldoret, and across East Africa. Bulk orders get priority logistics, and we work with reliable couriers for safety and speed.
8️⃣ What industries do you serve?
We serve:
- Food & beverage (restaurants, butchers, caterers).
- Retail & FMCG.
- Logistics & transport companies.
- Agriculture & agribusinesses.
- Manufacturing & pharmaceuticals.
9️⃣ Is your packaging recyclable or reusable?
Yes, most of our products, like bubble wrap, PE cling film, and stretch wrap, are recyclable, and our mulch paper is biodegradable. We are working toward even more eco-conscious options for all clients.
