The VisiOpac® dome packaging concept extended
ANL Plastics carries the evolution of the VisiOpac® convenience concept one step further. The company recently developed the VisiOpac® ALU pack, suitable for ready meals. The manufacturer of the aluminium foil base is Nicholl Food Packaging.
The set consists of an aluminium base, a crystal clear PET lid, which can be anti fog treated and a printed tamper evident sealing ring.
A few years ago the VisiOpac® concept was introduced as an innovative dome packaging. It was made of either PET or PP, following the demand of the customer and the purpose of the pack.
Important assets of the original VisiOpac® concept were the extended shelf life of the meals (MAP), the original presentation in 3D and the possibility to personalize the printed sealing ring. In an era where visual communication becomes more and more important, the tampered evident ring is an additional communication and marketing tool.
All the necessary information, i.e. ingredients, instructions and company branding are present on one label. Further more, the concept gives a premium range image to the content.
ANL Plastics responds to the convenience trend
The main new advantage of the VisiOpac® combination with the aluminium tray is that dishes can be cooked in the tray, in a traditional oven, or by manufacturers or consumers after removing the sealing ring and the lid. This concept suits both ready meals and ready to cook dishes. It also guarantees perfect hygiene and less handling than any other container before.
The VisiOpac® ALU wrapping takes profit from ANL Plastics' technical know how in the field of dome packaging, Nicholl Food Packaging, a well established specialist in the field of aluminium trays and Sealpac, approved supplier in the sealing machinery.
