New plastic containers for baby food from RPC Cobelplast
24 September 2009 | By Popsop Team
RPC Cobelplast is positioning its plastic tub as a more cost-effective and flexible alternative to glass-formed baby-food packaging.
According to company representatives, the new packaging combines design flexibility, safe handling, excellent long-term product protection and cost-effectiveness.
Moreover, advances in aseptic form-fill-seal technology have led many top baby food brands to replace glass packs with alternatives, such as plastics packaging, which is user-friendly, microwavable for convenient reheating and shatterproof for consumer safety.
The lighter weight of plastics compared with glass can also lessen the strain on the supply chain, reduce energy and produce fewer emissions.
New plastic packaging allows extending a shelf life of baby food up to 12 months. The material flexibility provides a number of design options to be thermoformed, including ergonomic cup shapes that enable parents to feed babies directly from the packs. Packs can be manufactured in either transparent or colored plastic.
