Ocean Spray will use the recyclable packaging in its Craveology Tuscan Herb snack mix.

Ocean Spray packaging commodity manager Tracey Todesco said: “We partnered with ProAmpac because of their unique approach to innovation, expanding lineup of sustainable alternatives, and how well they align with Ocean Spray’s culture of collaboration and our legacy as a cooperative of farmer families. We’re looking forward to future collaborations with ProAmpac.”

R-1000 is designed to be heat-resistance and features premium sealant technology. It is suitable for high-speed form/fill/seal applications and performs better than typical recyclable mono-material films.

The film is also a recyclable high-performance alternative to existing film laminations and available in standard or high-barrier versions.

R-1000 can be recycled in flexible polyethylene film streams and applicable for store drop-off in the North America region.

ProAmpac product development and innovation vice-president Hesam Tabatabaei said: “When developing the R-1000, we wanted to ensure that it maintained the speed of vertical and horizontal form fill sealing machines and ran much faster than typical mono-material films currently in the market.

“It has been engineered with high heat-resistance and unique sealant technology that resists ‘gum up,’ burn-through and deformation during high-speed packaging.”

Last September, ProAmpac partnered with manufacturer Metropolitan Tea to launch a new luxury teabag pouch.
