Read ArticleInnovation for creative cooking in the microwave launched
The ready meals market has steadily grown in the past years and reached an incredible market value of 27.7 billion Euros in Western Europe in 2007 (see Food For Thought, Ready Meals Market, February 2009). Convenience is thus one of the major innovation drivers in food packaging and the origin for the latest product development by Mondi – a retortable stand-up pouch for cooking dry food, vegetables, soups or sauces in the microwave. The new Zip&Valve stand-up pouch offers an attractive combination of properties: a long shelf life and reclosability, without loss of vitamins and flavour. Thanks to the reduced retort time for a slim pouch, in which the necessary temperature is reached gently and fast, vitamins and minerals are retained. These features have lead to an increased demand for stand-up pouches for convenience food and to the development of innovative packaging solutions such as the Zip&Valve pouch by Mondi Consumer Flexibles.

Read ArticleFlexible packaging market to grow by 4.2% per year
Demand for converted flexible packaging is forecast to expand 4.2 percent per year to $16.5 billion in 2011. Growth will be attributable to cost, performance and source reduction advantages over most rigid packaging. Moreover, heightened barrier requirements in many markets will drive increased demand for value-added materials to enhance shelf life or product protection. Developments in breathable and self-venting films and resealable features will also fuel growth. Additionally, demographic changes such as greater numbers of single-person households and older consumers will support demand for more convenient prepared foods and single-serving portions. This trend will boost material consumption as smaller packages tend to use more packaging relative to their size.
