Confection packaging
Industry trends drive constant evolution in candy packaging and confectionery applications from freeze-dried candies to the latest chocolate variations. Kendall delivers visually compelling packaging solutions with superior protection properties that give your products a decisive competitive advantage.
Candy and confectionery is one of our longest-running and most established markets. We’ve partnered with confectioners of every size, from emerging brands to category leaders, to solve packaging challenges across hard candy, chews, gummies, and chocolate-based items.
Our portion control packaging is built for the way candy is actually sold today: fun-size, bite-size, and snack-size formats that support multipacks, on-the-go snacking, and individually wrapped pieces inside a larger bag. We engineer these structures to hold their seal integrity through high-speed packaging lines without compromising the experience customers expect when unwrapping a product.
For enrobed and chocolate-based confections, we also offer Cold Seal Technology, a sealing method that requires no heat, making it ideal for chocolate and other enrobed or temperature-sensitive products. Cold seal prevents melt-related seal failures while running at higher line speeds with less waste, a critical advantage for chocolate packagers.
Our technical team provides comprehensive support throughout the entire development process, from initial design through final functionality.
Kendall Packaging optimizes your product’s performance and market appeal by precisely meeting package fill-weight requirements, processing efficiency needs, puncture-resistance specifications, seal strength parameters, aesthetic goals, and cost objectives. Optional reclosable features deliver added convenience for today’s mobile consumers.
