Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/10/2017 -- Plastics are preferred over other forms of packaging because of their physical and chemical properties.

Their cost per unit of production is low and they have a wide variety of applications. Plastic packaging even aids companies in marketing and advertising campaigns by allowing innovative and attractive designs.
