Product packaging is much more than a marketing tool. Beyond the logo and protecting the product, safety is also an important consideration. Child resistant packaging, with features like Mylar film,  were developed to ensure the safety of curious little hands, but what is Mylar and what, exactly, makes mylar bags child resistant?

Mylar

The Mylar brand is a registered trademark of the DuPont company that refers to a type of film used in plastic packaging. The term Mylar is often used to refer to any brand of plastic film (like the Kleenex brand name is used to refer to all brands of facial tissues). The generic terms for Mylar are polyester film or plastic sheet. These sheets are made from a resin called Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), which is a thin and extremely durable plastic.

The strength and quality of the packaging isn't exclusive to the mylar brand name but rather to the strength and quality of the plastic film itself, which is what makes custom mylar bags and similar packaging so popular. And, while the strength of "mylar" packaging makes it nearly impossible to break, tear, or shatter, it isn't just the plastic film that contributes to making the packaging child resistant.

Higher density areas might require less use of a vehicle, but it’s always useful for emergencies and unforeseen circumstances when you need to get somewhere quickly.

Once you’ve decided to take steps toward choosing and buying a car, it’s important to ensure you’ve found a make or model that truly meets your needs, especially before you begin to consider how you will pay for it. Do you want higher gas mileage? More trunk space or a truck bed for hauling large items? What about safety features?

Once you’ve figured all of that out, the payment is the next step to begin thinking about.

Life mid-COVID-19 has changed the way people do their routines, especially in skincare. These days, most people are washing their hands or using hand sanitizer more frequently. They are also wearing face masks constantly - whether they're out for work, doing necessary grocery runs, or seeing friends for a socially distanced lunch.
