Making the switch
MAKING the switch to new pack formats without additional costly investment can be a challenge for many food manufacturers. Tray sealing specialist Proseal is helping customers easily shift to sustainable tray formats with its equipment, which has the capabilities to handle different materials, such as board and pulp, without modification.
“Our work focuses on ensuring new pack formats remain functional and fit-for- purpose and don’t compromise on protection or shelf-life while delivering sustainability benefits,” says Proseal sales director Tony Burgess.
Proseal is also the sealing partner for the Halopack tray, a
gas-tight cardboard modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) tray, which is based on a patented design and is fully sealable for in-line production.
The company continues to work closely with both tray and film suppliers to stay ahead of the demand for environmentally friendly solutions.
