ProAmpac, a well-known company in flexible packaging and material science, has launched its innovative fibre-based Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) RAP Sandwich Wedge in the North American market.
The innovative package is specifically designed for sandwiches and wraps, introducing the concept of modified atmosphere packaging to a fibre-based format.
Addressing sustainability and food spoilage
With a strong commitment to sustainability, ProAmpac combines the advantages of modified atmosphere packaging with sustainable fibre materials to meet the demands for reduced food spoilage, environmentally friendly packaging and an improved consumer experience in the food-to-go market.
The RAP Sandwich Wedge has the remarkable capability to preserve a fresh sandwich or wrap for up to 28 days, setting a new standard for freshness and sustainability in on-the-go meals.
Innovative design for preservation and visibility
The RAP Sandwich Wedge from ProAmpac incorporates a carton board structure with a thin film lining, optimising both product preservation and visibility.
Engineered for hermeticity, this innovative packaging solution utilises high barrier technology to extend the shelf-life of the product, especially when combined with gas-flush filling technology.
This allows for longer transit and selling times, enhancing sales potential while minimising food waste.
Sustainable and recyclable packaging
The RAP Sandwich Wedge offers wide recyclability, aligning with ProAmpac's sustainability goals. Consumers can easily peel away the film liner, and the carton board is recyclable in paper streams.
Crafted from responsibly sourced fibre and utilising less plastic packaging than conventional rigid containers, the RAP Sandwich Wedge significantly reduces packaging waste.
Enhanced branding and operational efficiency
Additionally, the RAP Sandwich Wedge provides an elevated experience for consumers with custom graphics and branding directly printed on the pack. This transforms the grab-and-go sandwich or wraps into a premium option, boosting its appeal.
Food retailers can gain operational efficiencies by packing sandwiches upstream using MAP technology and optimising their onsite labour.
ProAmpac's fibre-based Modified Atmosphere Packaging RAP Sandwich Wedge offers a sustainable and innovative solution for the food-to-go market.
With its extended shelf-life, recyclability, and enhanced branding opportunities, this packaging solution aims to revolutionise the way sandwiches and wraps are packaged and consumed while reducing food waste and promoting sustainability in the industry.
