Food Waste harms the environment and society
CO2 emissions by country
Did you know how much food is wasted along the entire food chain from field to household?
How throwing away food harms the environment.
Throwing away food means less money for you and your family.
Key facts about plastic packaging everyone should know.
It's made of multiple invisible layers each with unique properties to protect our food.
Throwing away food means less money for you and your family.
Consumers have contributed to the rising amount of food waste by misinterpreting expiry labels, discarding ugly food at the grocery store & bulk food purchases.
30% of annual food production is lost or wasted.
43 million people can’t afford a qualitymeal every second day in the EU.
25% reduction in waste food could cover the nutritional needs of people around the world suffering from food insecurity.
With the global populationexpected to reach 9,7 billion by 2050, ensuring global food security is an important agenda.
Landfills from food waste occupy
3 times the surface of the EU
Food waste increases agricultural activities that threaten the natural habitat of 66% of the world’s plants and animals
The global food waste is sized like 66,7 million Olympic swimming pools
Performance packaging slows down the food spoilage process, ensures food safety & hygiene, helps food retain quality & freshness in today’s busy lifestyle.
Plastics, unlike other materials, have been continuously evolving since their invention to meet the demanding requirements of food packaging. Today, modern polymers and processing technologies produce performance packaging to optimize food protection, convenience and efficiency.
Slows down the spoilage process.
Helps you manage your busy lifestyle.
Retains flavour, freshness and nutrients.
Food products are exposed to a delicate process of storage, shipping, transport and delivery network. This heightens the risk of contamination to food products without packaging.
See, touch, select and consume food items without risk of contamintation.
Food items are protected when customers sneeze or cough around packed food.
Food protection against germs, dusts or the chaiser's hair strand.
The basic design of a multilayer film consists of a structure ranging from three to 12 layers formed by an outer layer of material that provides structural, thermal and printing properties, a central layer constituting the barrier layer, and an inner layer with good sealability.
Using these thin layers, each with specific characteristics, significantly increases shelf life and freshness of food by controlling the transmission rate of oxygen, carbon dioxide and moisture, while also improving the mechanical and physical properties of the film against puncture, tear and heat.
Food packaging is a protective barrier against environmental factors, such as microbial contamination, water vapour, oxygen, odorous substances or light.
Flexible packaging solutions emit significantly less CO2 than conventional packaging formats.
Using performance packaging solutions helps to reduce overall weight and CO2 emissions during transport.
Extending shelf life prevents and reduces the occurrence of early spoilage while reducing the greenhouse gases emitted by landfills.
Converting polymers into functional packaging requires significantly less water.
Considerably less energy is needed to convert polymers into functional packaging compared with conventional packaging formats.
Significantly less raw materials are needed to produce a functional package made with polymeers compared with conventional packaging formats.
