Single-use plastic, a primary source of contaminants worldwide, has been important to the food industry around the world, helping to keep new and chain-of-origin products on supermarket shelves and at home. Consumers.
However, brands are under increasing pressure from consumers to reduce, remove or update plastic due to environmental concerns, and progress has been made, so far there has been no credible option available. A major update on the way we package food requires the progression of In fact, a state-of-the-art product that offers the same functionality as plastic. Without other viable options, brands would not be able to update their packaging due to the threat of chain-of-origin disruption and increased food waste.
World-renowned paper manufacturer Arjowiggins has announced a revolutionary new product called Sylvicta, which is only how sustainable the brands expect and is about to revolutionize the food packaging market.
“One of the main benefits of plastic in food packaging is that it prevents oxygen from come into contact with food,” explains Christophe Jordan, managing director of the translucent paper business at Arjowiggins. “This ensures maximum freshness in the source chain to the point of consumption. Our R teams
Here is a representation of the oxygen barrier through Sylvicta in relation to plastics:
The so-called Sylvicta, the whole of the Latin word for forest (sylva) and the ancient emblem of Kent County, where the paper is made (Undefeated), translates as the “forest that conquers”, an excellent representation of the role that can play the role. play in creating green solutions.
Sylvicta is completely recyclable, compostable and biodegradable in the marine environment, thanks to its manufacture from renewable unso cooked fabrics from forests under the FSC and CFEP programs. Unlike other such products on the market, the production procedure does not use destructive chemicals to achieve its transglycability and functionality. Sylvicta is manufactured to the highest criteria: it is approved for contact with food in accordance with the definitions of the European Food Safety Authority and the Food and Drug Administration (USA). U. S. A. ).
Innovation collaboration
Taking advantage of the richness of the pleasure that can be obtained in the industry is essential to overcome the barriers of sustainable packaging solutions. Arjowiggins has done so through collaborations with the actors in the packaging chain of origin.
“For our translucent barrier paper to be used in existing packaging lines that produce bags, bags and packaging, we want partners to further expand sylvicta functionality,” Jordan says. “A very clear example of this is our collaboration with the complex British sirane converter, which has worked with us to expand the best barrier packaging features by loading the best moisture coverage and thermosealing properties. We have also worked with other specialized converters to load metallization in order to achieve even higher barrier properties. Genuine innovation is that they are all completely sustainable solutions. »
These pioneering collaborations open a variety of programs, from nut bags, salad bags, forged soap bags, puppy food bags and chocolate bar flow-packs, to metallic versions of Sylvicta for butter or margarine containers. The programs use non-recyclable multilayer containers that incorporate plastic or aluminum foil. With Sylvicta, they can be converted into fully recyclable paper containers. The product is simply revolutionary.
An example of how Sylvicta can allow brands to respond to customers’ growing fear of non-recyclable packaging is the offset sandwich package, recently highlighted through the BBC War on Plastic programme. These sandwich molds are made of laminated cardboard with plastic wrap to maintain freshness. and create a window on the packaging.
While recent advances have noticed that brands create a window that can be removed, in practice the customer is unlikely to take this additional step in the recycling process. However, a sandwich tray made with Sylvicta not only offers transglycability so the customer can see the sandwich. It can also increase shelf life, help reduce food waste, and move directly to the paper recycling bin.
Changing customer attitudes means that the public must be a component of the solution and will adopt secure compensation when the planet’s coverage is at stake. “For example, France,” Jordan said. During the more than 8 years, the vast majority of open refrigerators in supermarkets have been replaced by doors that require additional effort to open, which may have had a negative effect on sales, but it has not had an obvious effect on the achievement of large amounts of CO2. The small compromise between paper that does not have the same degrees of transparency as plastic is not considered an environmentally conscious customer impediment.
Closing the economic cycle
Revolutionary responses like Sylvicta are the holy grail of plastic waste control responses, but their effectiveness can be demonstrated if the industry continues to adopt them.
Before the pandemic, some brands, brands and stores may simply delay adopting plastic-free alternatives. However, developing public awareness and developing stakeholder expectations about reducing plastic waste means that corporations now want to act much faster with single-use plastics from their packaging.
An essential detail of this business revolution is the true commitment to genuine and lasting positive replacement, combined with an ambitious vision and choice tactics to get things done. nature because it uses (largely) wood pulp, a renewable uncooked curtain in the best way that contributes to a de facto circular model. As Jordan says, “Sylvicta is the best choice for single-use plastics because it can be used in a multitude of packaging programs and can replace the game in the ongoing global movement to reduce the use of plastic. “
Sylvicta responds to the supplier’s wishes without compromising future wishes. With this revolutionary new product from Arjowiggins, the time has come to act on plastic waste and paper.
