Circular packaging. Fresher food. Less waste.

Less food waste

  • Extended shelf life & product safety
    Solid board combined with protective coatings or inner layers extends shelf life and helps prevent spoilage.
  • Smart portioning 
    MAP trays and skin packaging allow for portion-sized packs, helping consumers reduce waste by purchasing exactly what they need.
  • Moisture control for freshness
    Solid board regulates moisture and reduces condensation, limiting bacterial growth and keeping meat fresh for longer.
  • Clear communication on shelf life
    High-quality print and smart features like QR codes enable real-time shelf life tracking and clear product communication.

Moisture resistance

  • Our poultry and meat packaging retains its strength, shape and volume in humid and wet conditions. In extremely wet conditions, our Sapino-treated solid board with PE (optional) coating, offers the required water resistance for your chilled products.
  • The minimal thickness of the board results in shorter freezing times, also providing more efficient use of energy consumptions.

Fully recyclable

  • Today, solid board packaging is produced to nearly 100% by recovered waste paper which is collected in commerce, industry, administration and private households. Used packaging and other paper and board products are collected after use and the fibres are recovered as part of the standard paper recycling process. Fibre-based packaging material can be recycled at least 25 times without losing its mechanical or structural integrity.
