Ampac Manufactures Dog Drinking Pouch Package for Wetbone Company

Ampac created several renditions and prototypes for Wetbone before coming up with a functional solution. “This was a challenging concept to execute,” Herlehy said. “We needed to come up with a way to execute the design in the quantities Wetbone required and also within their budget constraints.”

Some of the challenges included a structure that was thick enough to enable the pouch to stand up, and to survive drop tests, while still being cost effective. The real “magic” however was modifying the automatic heat sealer to create appropriately-sized gaps in the seal so that the channels were formed.
