Printpack will debut an easy tear polyethylene pouch with customizable moisture barrier, oxygen barrier and closures options at Pack Expo 2016 in Chicago, US from November 6 to 9.
The technology is designed to be compliant with the How2Recycle store drop-off recycling stream and it is the latest addition to the company’s collection of solutions that support the reduction of food waste and sustainability throughout food product lifecycles.
“CPGs want to see their brands adored, not abandoned,” says Mark Brogan, director of technology and innovation.
“By offering a full range of packaging solutions that slow the degradation of food content, we can help brands gain greater consumer preference and stronger loyalties.”
“Ensuring freshness from the first serving to the last not only builds brand appeal, it also supports industry-wide efforts to fight food waste and achieve greater sustainability.”
Printpack’s solutions include stand-up, shaped, spouted and fitment pouches, wicketed bags, flat-bottom bags, rigid plastic packaging and lidding.
Re-sealable closures, advanced coating technologies, laser scoring and clear barrier solutions that protect against oxygen, moisture and ultraviolet light enable brands to design a package that minimizes food waste.
