Tackling waste through innovation
Innovative creative design, investment in manufacturing systems and advanced engineering skills have enabled the researchers and scientists at LINPAC Packaging to develop and launch an array of new packaging solutions which have "Fresh Thinking" at their core.
The company champions the cause of packaging as a means of protecting, preserving and presenting food and consequently reducing food waste. It is estimated that each person within the EU wastes 179kg every year, totalling in excess of 89 million tonnes. That figure is expected to rise by 40 per cent by 2020 if no further action is taken to minimise the amount thrown away.
LINPAC Packaging split packs for fresh and cooked meats help consumers to reduce food waste at home. The packs, which allow contents to be divided into separate portion-size compartments, are ideal for the growing single-person household population in Europe, as consumers can store food in the fridge for longer without compromising food safety.
Alan Davey, Director of Innovation, said: "Well-designed packaging can help consumers buy the right amount of food and then keep it in the best condition for longer. Our split packs are designed so consumers can buy four chicken fillets for example, open one side of the pack and use two, then put the remaining two in the fridge in a pack which is still completely sealed, with all the properties of an unopened pack."
LINPAC Packaging is at the forefront of developing new processes and solutions which ensure longevity and freshness, as well as improving the appearance of food. For brand owners and retailers this brings about benefits in the logistics chain and consumer satisfaction. For consumers, it means food will last longer, look and smell better.
Earlier this year, LINPAC also teamed up with Addmaster, the leading supplier of performance additives, to develop a range of trays and films with in-built antimicrobial technology to reduce bacteria growth on the outer packaging of meat products.
