Linpac launches flexible films for PP food trays

21 February 2012


Yorkshire-based Linpac Packaging has launched two new PP films for fresh meat, poultry and fish packaging applications: LINtop PP HB Lock Seal and LINtop PP HB Peelable.

In line with its new Fresh Thinking Innovation strategy, the company says both films “guarantee to meet the best shelf life targets in the PP market”, and will help manufacturers, retailers and consumers to reduce food waste and spoilage.

Manufactured at the company’s Pontivy flexible films site in France, both products are formulated to seal on a variety of PP trays, run smoothly in machines and seal through contamination to ensure a safe and secure pack is created.

The LINtop PP HB Lock Seal film option is available in two gauges, 35µ and 42µ, with the 35µ being one of the lowest gauges on the market, resulting in cost savings and a low carbon footprint in line with retailers’ sustainability strategies.

The company says LINtop PP HB Lock Seal outperforms other films’ anti-fog qualities and has excellent transparency to give good on-shelf presentation.

In line with the best market offerings for anti-fog efficiency and oxygen barrier, the LINtop PP HB Peelable film offers safe and easy peelability, coming away from the tray in one piece, and is said to outperform most films for transparency qualities.

Jo Stephenson, Linpac Packaging vice president marketing & innovation says: “We are committed to driving our Fresh Thinking Innovation strategy to meet the needs of food manufacturers, retailers and consumers.

“We feel that we have achieved that in designing these new innovative, market leading films.

“LINtop film solutions are easy to handle and complement a wide range of PP trays driving efficiency on the factory floor; providing a long shelf-life to food products, helping retailers reduce their waste, as well as keeping food fresh and looking attractive for longer which will ultimately encourage consumers to buy.”

With over 40 years of experience in food packaging safety and security, Linpac Packaging is a multi material technology provider operating across a network of 23 plants in 15 countries, championing the reduction of food waste by delivering innovative and efficient packaging solutions.
