The chilled food-to-go market is expanding into a wider variety of foods and different day parts. In line with healthier lifestyle trends, a broader spectrum of chilled vegetarian and vegan dishes are available, and larger brands are now providing such options.
Shelf-life Extended shelf-life packaging within the chilled food-to- go category provides options to reduce food waste by keeping food fresher for longer. See page 40 for range details. We have self-seal and machinery sealed options, paired with countertop and free-standing machines to suit all requirements. See page 88-105 for range details.
Chilled food-to-go showcases fresh food for same day consumption. We offer a variety of formats, shapes and sizes that can be used for instant serve back-of-house and are also suitable for in-line production by packer processors. We provide solutions with stability, wide apertures for filling, which can be nested for space efficiency. Driven by the media and consumer demand, the retail and food-service industries are seeking sustainable packaging solutions. We minimise the use of plastics and, where possible, use materials with a high percentage of recycled content. Our Zest™ range, including salad boxes, utilises a water-based coating to reduce plastic whilst retaining recyclability and compostability, and features a compostable cellulose window. See pages 39 & 40 for range details. Chilled food is often enjoyed on the go, so convenience and ease of use are essential. Our ranges are designed with efficient opening and the ability to re-close. Our multi-food pots are available with tight fitting rPET anti-mist lids so that they can be re-sealed to keep the contents fresh. See pages 36-37 for range details.
On-Shelf Appeal Product visibility is vital to consumers when selecting food. Our product designs within this range showcase wide apertures, over the edge windows, and the ability to film seal. We offer lids with a minimum of 75% rPET and anti-mist coating, that minimise condensation in a chilled environment to maximise visibility. Our Fuzione ® and Combione ® ranges are excellent examples of this. See pages 42-43 for range details. Standing out on-shelf is as important as product visibility. Our chilled food-to-go ranges have wide printable areas for branding or labelling. Shape and format can also increase shelf appeal and improve shelf density. For example, our Stagione ® range combines curved, organic edges with practical space efficiency and ease of stacking. See pages 48-49 for range details.
