Ceepackaging

On July 4, 2008 Mondi Frantschach inaugurated a Bag Application Centre (BAC) at the site of its R&D Innovation Centre. The already successful development work now also covers packaging technology research. In his opening speech, Peter J. Oswald, CEO of the Mondi Division Europe & International, stressed that Mondi is now in an even better position to provide comprehensive customer-oriented product development from fibre resources to the final packaging solution.

The Belgian ready meal producer, Le Médaillon, has chosen SilviPak for the launch of its chilled oven dishes in the stores of the Dutch retailer Super de Boer.

After six years on the market, Frövi was acquired by Korsnäs two years ago for appr EUR 350 million. Six months later, after the purchase was reviewed and approved by the competition authorities in Brussels, the restructuring began. A clearly articulated goal was to make this one company, not two separate business units operating in the same group. How has it gone?

Shown for the first time at Anuga, SilviPak is a new generation of natural packaging, based on pulp made from virgin wood fibres. The trays are dual ovenable and suitable for frozen and chilled ready meal products, challenging the “traditional” CPET and aluminium trays by being more natural and reducing both packaging weight and oil consumption.

A. Frey Verpackungsentwickungen und Vertriebs GmbH, Mindelheim has developed an extremely efficient packaging system in the form of "Zipp + Knack". The solution can be seen in the combination of all requirements made by partners involved in the packaging procedure and has resulted in a stable, economical, 1-part packaging with a reliable and precise opening system.
