Eco-Friendly Meat Packaging

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Coveris' Nextrus Boneless Shrink Bags Boast Sustainable Properties

— January 13, 2017 — Art & Design
Last fall, Coveris announced the debut of Nextrus Boneless Shrink Bags as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional meat packaging. While the packaging does not appear any different than other shrink bags upon first glance, it actually allows for a tighter fit that means less packaging is needed per item.

The Nextrus Boneless Shrink Bags are made from newly engineered resins that ensure a tighter seal around various meat products. This seal helps to reduce leaks, provide protection against punctures and lock in freshness. The packaging also features a premium gloss that allows for superior clarity and visibility. However, most importantly, the tighter seal means that less packaging is needed per product, thereby making the new shrink bags a sustainable alternative to other packaging options.
Trend Themes
1. Sustainable Packaging - The use of eco-friendly and tighter fitting shrink bags reduces the amount of packaging required per product, offering a sustainable packaging option.
2. Engineered Resins - The use of newly engineered resins creates a tighter seal around meat products, reducing leaks, providing puncture protection, and ensuring freshness.
3. Premium Clarity and Visibility - The Nextrus Boneless Shrink Bags feature a premium gloss that promotes superior clarity and visibility of the packaged meat products.
Industry Implications
1. Food Packaging - The sustainable and tight-fitting shrink bags offer the food packaging industry an opportunity to enhance their eco-friendly practices.
2. Meat Processing - The use of engineered resins in shrink bags presents an innovative opportunity for the meat processing industry to improve their packaging and product quality.
3. Packaging Manufacturing - The development of premium gloss shrink bags with superior clarity and visibility opens up new possibilities for the packaging manufacturing industry to create visually appealing and functional packaging solutions.
