Americas: Anchor Packaging releases greener, retail-friendly containers

Anchor Packaging launches its WAVE series of containers that is designed to incorporate ergonomic design, reduce petroleum-based materials, and offer an upscale presentation with smooth, clean lines and wide viewing panels.

The containers are available in 16, 24, and 32 ounce sizes.

They join Anchor products under the MicroRaves trademark.

Design

The WAVE series 9″ x 6″ containers are designed with smooth sides for ease of use.

The spoon-able inside surface, and shiny black outside, attract the impulse buyer with a modern, contemporary design.

The attractive new look provides a table-ready presentation in a durable, cut-resistant material.

Three leak-resistant lids will fit each of the WAVE polypropylene (PP) bases.

New PP and recycled polyethylene terephthalate (RPET) dome lids have a smooth, sleek look with wide, rib-free panels to provide an unobstructed view of the food contents.

The flat RPET lid also has a smooth surface for portion control and low profile items.

The vented, PP dome lid includes integral Clear GuardT anti-fog technology to prevent condensation or ‘fogging’ of the lid.

This maximizes hot-case merchandising opportunities for retailers and eliminates takeout order errors for foodservice operators, while keeping hot foods looking fresh and appealing.

High clarity RPET flat and dome lids include cold anti-fog technology and, when combined with these microwavable bases, offer optimal food visibility to drive increased sales from chilled grab and go displays.

The three bases and the PP lid will withstand temperatures to 230°F in warming units, under heat lamps, or in the microwave.

There is no need to re-plate chilled, prepared foods, when reheated in the microwave.

The containers are made with a natural mineral additive, reducing the use of petroleum-based resin by 40%.

The bases and PP lid are dishwasher safe providing consumer-convenient reusability.

The RPET flat and dome lids are made with FDA approved post-consumer recycled content.

All bases and lids can be recycled curbside.
