EDV wins packaging Award for Innovative high barrier plastic cup
EDV Packaging and H.J. Heinz Company Australia Limited have revolutionised the shelf stable seafood market.
Innovative High Barrier Cup
EDV Packaging has developed an innovative high barrier cup in white PP/EVOH/PP for a launch of 10 sophisticated varieties of value added tuna and salmon for the Heinz Greenseas brand, in Australia.
The degree of innovation has now been rewarded with an Honorable Mention in the The Wow!! Factor category, one of the most important categories of the FPI Awards 2007.
Hermetically Sealed High Barrier PP/EVOH/PP Cup
A Deluxe Cup...
EDV Packaging coextrudes and thermoforms the high barrier PP/EVOH/PP white structure in its production plant located in Llinars del Vallès, in Spain. Thanks to the robust EVOH layer, the cup provides maximum guarantee to long preservation of the packed product. It also ensures ample barrier to moisture and to oxygen to prevent decay and preserve taste up to 18 months after the packaging date, stored at appropriate temperature in optimal conditions. The light and UV rays damage is avoided thanks to the opacity of the base material.
The cup holds a 100g portion of the tuna or salmon snack and it has a reinforced wall feature designed to provide resistance during the retort sterilisation process. The quality and the characteristics of the plastic material make the cup 100% recyclable and its low weight and high resistance to breakage make it a safe and efficient package.
...With Top Quality Finishings
The cup has been hermetically thermosealed with a printed aluminium foil. A decorated sleeve with tamper evident closure is added. The injected lid includes a spork for consumers to eat the product at any place at any time. The final presentation is eye-catching from any side of the supermarket shelves and offers an ideal alternative to consumers looking for healthy high-quality products that are environmentally friendly.
