The Südpack Packaging Group introduced Multipeel on Mono APET, the latest addition to the established Multipeel family, at this year's interpack trade show. This resealable packaging offers outstanding sealing properties, is easy to open and reclose, and extremely transparent with a brilliant shine.
Base film for the resealable packaging is made exclusively from APET. Südpack developed a special sealing layer in the lid film making it possible to seal onto Mono APET. This differs from other Multipeel products, which use PE in the sealing layer. Another special feature: Multipeel on Mono APET is available with or without barrier properties, so that the packaging can be adapted to meet the needs of the packaged product. This enables an optimal gas exchange, particularly for cheese products. Multipeel on Mono APET can be used on all standard thermoforming machines.
Consumers benefit from an extremely tear-resistant and stable packaging that can be opened without aids and reliably resealed thanks to the extremely rigid material. As a result, the packaged food products, mostly sausage or cheese, can be easily stored and served in the packaging. At point of sale, the Multipeel innovation attracts attention with its unusual shine. A highly-transparent base film ensures a clear view of the product. Südpack prints the top film using flexographic and rotogravure printing processes, which allows for a wide range of printed images.
Less packaging material
The Multipeel on Mono APET packaging solution is extremely thin, which makes it ideal for manufacturers that support eco-sustainability. Packaging material can be reduced by up to 20 percent with Multipeel. This reduces weight, storage space and transport costs. Thinner material also supports efficient production because fewer roll changes are required. Despite the reduced amount of material, the packaging provides maximum product protection.
"Our Multipeel family has helped bring about a market breakthrough for resealable packaging," says Südpack Managing Partner Johannes Remmele. "Multipeel on Mono APET enhances our product portfolio. The packaging combines product protection, convenience and sustainability."
