Graphic Packaging To Extend Product Range For PaperSeal

The new PaperSeal Slice and Wedge solutions com- bine the safety, flexibility, efficiency and enhanced brand- ing opportunities that partners have come to expect of the PaperSeal Tray range, while opening up the solution’s ca- pabilities to new product categories. De Genova concluded, “Demand for sustainable fi- ber-based alternatives to plastic packaging is very high, and we are working on a variety of new PaperSeal tray in- novations to assist our customers in meeting their environ- mental targets. PaperSeal Slice and Wedge are just two examples of how we can diversify our flexible PaperSeal range to meet the sustainability priorities of the individual brands and retailers we work with.”

Atlanta, Georgia based Graphic Packaging International (GPI) will launch two innovations to extend its award-win- ning PaperSeal tray range for new applications. Following the success of the PaperSeal tray, both the new PaperSeal Slice and PaperSeal Wedge offer brands and retailers a recyclable, barrier-lined, paperboard pack- aging alternative to plastic thermoformed trays for sliced meats and cheeses. Both PaperSeal Slice and Wedge offer enhanced branding capabilities with high-quality graphics that deliver on-shelf differentiation. “Compared to traditional plastic trays, PaperSeal Slice typically reduces plastic by 75 percent and PaperSeal Wedge by 80 percent,” said Ricardo De Genova, Graph- ic Packaging’s SVP, Global Innovation and New Business. “The innovative new designs also use lighter weight pa- perboard to deliver reduced pack weights that can sup- port our customers’ packaging sustainability goals. Both are available as formed or flat trays.” Both solutions have been designed to withstand the rigors of today’s supply chain with excellent seal integrity and shelf life equivalent to traditional plastic trays. As with the existing PaperSeal trays, the top film and liner can be separated from the paperboard for ease of post-use recy- cling.
