New products added to Colpac’s recyclable Stagione range
Packaging Solutions
Colpac has introduced a new 1000 ml square Stagione variant to further expand its extensive range of recyclable food packaging. This size has been launched to appeal particularly to the chilled food market with a new rPET lid launched alongside.
The new square Stagione has a PP coating giving a superior grease and moisture barrier, one of the most robust barrier coatings on the market. The square 1000 ml size is shallower in depth than existing 1250 ml size, whilst retaining the large visible area for product within.
A new style of rPET lid has been launched alongside this pot. With anti mist coating, it has crystal clear clarity and a smooth finish which is ideal for labelling. The new rPET lid fits both square Stagione base sizes, extending the use these for use in chilled cabinets.
The company’s new 1000 ml square Stagione contains 5.7% plastic, putting it well below OPRL’s 10% recycling threshold. It is made from FSC certified paperboard, verifying sustainable sourcing, in support customer and consumer calls for sustainable products. The new square lid is made from 100% recycled PET and can be recycled after use.
Product testing and quality assurance is of paramount importance to Colpac, so declarations of conformity around food safety and product usages can be provided to customers on request.
Core to the versatility of the Stagione range is the variety of sizes and shapes in the fourteen strong portfolio. The range offers high barrier properties, whilst still retaining its sustainable credentials.
The Stagione PP range is ideal to package a multitude of dishes and is suitable for use at all stages of food production, service, and sale. Freezer safe and microwaveable, the range can be used for a wide variety of food to go environments, including hot hold cabinets and chillers, with the associated lids for each environment.
The company has recently launched lightweighted PE coated Stagione products. These are ideal for customers that do not require reheating functionality and are perfect for the instant serve and chilled food markets.
