In a significant advancement for sustainable packaging, ProAmpac announced the launch of ProActive Recyclable FibreSculpt in Europe, a novel solution designed for thermoforming applications. This development targets a variety of products, such as meats, cheeses, and fish, with a focus on environmental responsibility.
FibreSculpt stands out for its high fibre content, exceeding 90%, aligning with OPRL guidelines. The technology offers numerous benefits, including reduced packaging weight, enhanced operational efficiencies, and improved shelf appeal through a premium, natural look. Moreover, its kerbside recyclability in the UK and Ireland promotes a circular economy by ensuring ease of recycling for consumers. Adam West, a product development engineer at ProAmpac, highlights FibreSculpt’s grease resistance and high barrier properties, which are crucial for maintaining product shelf life.
