SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING SOLUTIONS FOR THE FOOD INDUSTRY – HYGIENIC AND EFFICIENT

Whether it’s meat and fish, cheese and sausages, salads and fruit, or ready meals and snacks: sustainability and environmental responsibility are becoming an ever-greater focus in the food industry too – whether driven by regulation, investors or consumer demand. Particularly when it comes to packaging, the pressure to switch to environmentally friendly, recyclable solutions is mounting.

ETIMEX: PIONEER FOR SUSTAINABLE MONO-MATERIAL PACKAGING

As a pioneer and proven specialist in sustainable packaging solutions, ETIMEX has outstanding expertise and a unique product range in the food sector: our packaging made from pure polypropylene (PP mono) has been specially developed for the food industry and, in combination with an EVOH middle layer, has excellent water vapour and oxygen barriers.

Our PP solutions also stand out because of their recyclability and weight savings compared to other types of plastic, which leads to a significantly improved environmental and, in particular, CO₂ balance.

Proven and innovative solutions made of PET and PE round off our range of packaging for the food industry.

WHAT CHARACTERISES OUR SOLUTIONS:

Customised product properties

Our packaging solutions made of PP mono and PET have excellent modifiability and thus enable precisely customisable properties.

Optimum hygiene and product safety

Whether vacuum, pasteurisation, sterilisation or modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) – we have the right solution to effectively ensure the shelf life and safety of your food.

Outstanding barrier properties

The flavour barriers of our PP mono products with EVOH barrier layer are not merely on a par with conventional solutions, they are even superior!

High recyclability and low CO2 footprint

As complete solutions made from PP or PET, the majority of our products are fully recyclable and optionally even obtainable from renewable raw materials (ISCC PLUS certified).

Simple processing and high machine performance
