Coca-Coca Will Produce Cardboard Group Packaging For Cans From 2020
Coca-Cola, in partnership with Coca-Cola HBC and Coca-Cola European Partners (CCEP), has announced the launch of KeelClip, a minimalist cardboard packaging solution for cans. So far, the solution is designed for the European market.
KeelClip was developed by Graphic Packaging International and is a replacement for the plastic shrink film often used for packaging soft drinks. The cardboard packaging solution also minimizes the amount of paper and labels required. It is positioned as the industry's first non-alcoholic ready-to-drink beverage.
Separate carton packs will be used for all multipacks of up to eight cans. Graphic Packaging International previously introduced similar packaging for six cans of cider.
NanoPack Food Packaging Helps Extend Food Shelf Life
Food spoilage is relevant in many food sectors. As part of an EU-funded project, NanoPack has conducted a series of antimicrobial tests of the new film to demonstrate the possibility of extending shelf life.
During testing, NanoPack film showed the ability to extend the shelf life of perishable foods such as bread, cherries and yellow cheese.
The film is based on a combination of natural nanomaterials and essential oils, which increases food safety, helps reduce waste.
Nanotubes gradually release antimicrobial oils from the film into packaged food. This prevents the onset of oxidation and microbial growth, increasing food safety and prolonging shelf life. Tests have shown that packaging inhibited mold growth in bread for at least three weeks.
This solution will also allow to maintain the tightness of fresh cherries and extend the shelf life of yellow cheese by 40% and 50%, respectively.
KFC Canada Will Test a Bamboo Bucket
KFC Canada, an American fast food chain, has announced plans to try out a new bamboo poutine bucket. The company will test some of KFC's restaurants in Canada in early 2020.
This decision is part of the company's commitment to sustainable development, which includes the study of alternatives that are convenient to the consumer and at the same time environmentally friendly.
According to KFC Canada, bamboo is a renewable and antibacterial material. It is 100% biodegradable, renewable and does not require pesticides.
Earlier this year, a restaurant chain pledged to supply 100% of paper packaging from certified sources or recyclable from 2020. In line with the brand’s global commitment to sustainability, KFC is also exploring ways to make all of its plastic packaging renewable or reusable by 2025
In July, KFC Canada advised its restaurants to abandon plastic straws and bags before the end of the year. If successful, this step will result in the removal of approximately 50 million plastic straws and 10 million plastic bags from KFC Canada processes.
