The UK's largest dairy food company, Dairy Crest, is using the Amcor FlexCan container for its Cathedral City Mature yet Mellow 200g Diced Cheddar Cheese.
The company says the new pack brings a number of benefits – it is easy to open, is recloseable and it will stand up in the fridge. Its wide opening also makes it easy to reach in and take a handful of diced cheese.
The forming from reel material and filling of the Amcor FlexCan takes place on an automatic vertical packaging machine from Rovema Verpackungsmaschinen, Germany.
Reverse-printed six colours gravure by Amcor Flexibles Colodense on a Rotomec press, the three-ply laminate of OPP, OPA and lapseal PE includes Amcor's patented easy-open, reclose flap and gives a stiff structure to ensure multi-stacking capability as required by most supermarkets.
