V-Shapes, a global leader in snap and squeeze mono-dose packaging solutions, is bringing its unit-dose packaging technology to brands looking to enhance customer experience, differentiate products, respond to changing consumption habits, and capture new market demand.
The Italian packaging technology company has engineered a sustainable sachet alternative that moves beyond conventional tear-off pouches – combining an intuitive snap fold squeeze packaging opening with controlled dispensing packaging in a compact, portable pack.
Designed for high-viscosity liquids, gels, creams, and complex formulations, this one-handed opening packaging delivers precision portion control, hygiene, portability, freshness, and product protection in a single recyclable mono-material packaging proposition that eliminates zero tear-off litter.
Introducing the innovation, Abhishek Chitlangia, CEO of V-Shapes, said, “Brands are constantly looking for ways to make their products more relevant, more differentiated, and easier for customers to use. Packaging is one of the most immediate ways to influence that experience, and it should be treated as a core part of product value proposition.”
He added, “Our globally patented single-dose packaging solution addresses this upfront. We are giving brands an opportunity to rethink how their product is delivered, used, and experienced. Whether the objective is portion control packaging, convenience, product protection, premiumisation, sampling, or creating a completely new consumption occasion, the packaging itself can become part of the solution.”
The shift toward mono-dose packaging is already visible in Europe, where consumption is becoming increasingly mobile, individualised, and convenience-led.
Highlighting the ease of transition to mono-dose packaging for brands, Abhishek Chitlangia said, “The question for brands is no longer whether consumers have a need for single-dose formats. It is how effectively brands can use them. The opportunity now is for brands to look at what single-dose packaging can do for their products and consumers. We provide the automated packaging machinery and co-packaging contract services to make that possible.”
Cross-industry applications:
Food & Beverage: Delivers portion control food packaging, hygienic sauce sachets, and easy-open salad dressing packs that ensure clean-consumption food packaging and reduced food waste packaging.
Pharmaceuticals & healthcare: Enables precision pharma dosing packaging, tamper-evident drug delivery packs, and hygienic liquid medicine packaging designed for accessible packaging for elderly care.
Nutraceuticals & wellness: Powers single-serve dietary supplement packs, portable energy gel packaging, and liquid vitamin unit-dose sachets that safeguard product freshness and active potency.
Personal care & cosmetics: Elevates unit-dose cosmetic sample packaging and single-use skincare sachets with controlled dispensing cream packaging for premium beauty sampling and hygienic trial.
Travel & hospitality: Delivers single-dose hotel amenity packaging, one-handed hotel shampoo packaging, and spill-proof guest amenity packs featuring zero tear-off waste travel packs for an elevated guest experience.
From containing a product to enhancing its experience is the larger proposition of V-Shapes. The pack itself becomes a key touchpoint—helping determine how a product is opened, used, precisely dispensed, and remembered.
V-Shapes’ snap-fold-squeeze packaging platform combines automated packaging machinery with co-packaging contract services, enabling manufacturers across food and beverage, healthcare and pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and wellness, personal care and cosmetics, and travel & hospitality to scale single-dose packaging and single-serve packaging applications globally.
V-Shapes is owned by Control Print, a trusted leader in coding and marking technologies.
