Amcor\u2019s new AmPrima\u00ae Flowpack Pro solution for bakery products achieves up to an 82%* reduction in carbon footprint compared to traditional packaging<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00a0Amcor ,\u00a0a global leader in developing and producing responsible packaging solutions, has today announced the launch of its new AmPrima\u00ae\u00a0 Flowpack Pro solution for bakery products. This innovative mono-material solution is recycle-ready and helps to overcome the bakery sector\u2019s reliance on non-recyclable packaging. Notably, it is also the first recycle-ready flexible packaging solution with no EVOH and PVDC, available on the market for flatbread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The AmPrima\u00ae Flowpack Pro helps bakery brands move closer to their environmental goals. It achieves up to an 82%* reduction in the carbon footprint of the packaging when compared to traditional packaging solutions, as well as up to 77%* reduction in non-renewable energy use and up to 89%* reduction in water consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Previously, the bakery sector has relied on non-recyclable packaging, containing coatings such as PVDC, among others, to provide the oxygen barrier required for the storage of bakery products. Now, with Amcor\u2019s AmPrima\u00ae Flowpack Pro solution, bakery brands can achieve excellent sealing and barrier properties while reaping the benefits of recycle-ready packaging and contributing to the circular economy. The AmPrima\u00ae Flowpack Pro solution may also help brands minimize Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) fees and plastic taxes thanks to its lightweight design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This innovative packaging is suitable for applications such as flatbread and packed pastry. The new solution was developed at the Amcor Flexibles site in Ledbury, UK, which is an Amcor centre of excellence for the development of packaging for the bakery sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c<\/strong>Bakery producers require packaging with specific properties to maintain product freshness and quality. With the evolution of our AmPrima\u00ae for bakery range, we are proud to launch the new recycle-ready FlowPack Pro solution for the bakery market,\u201d said Vitor Mota, Product Development Director, Amcor.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe are committed to helping bakery producers and retailers move closer to their sustainability goals and meet the rising expectations of consumers for more sustainable packaging. This is also an exciting development for Amcor, as we continue to progress towards our pledge to develop all our packaging to be recyclable or reusable by 2025,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This latest addition is part of the company\u2019s wider AmPrima\u00ae range of recycle-ready solutions. With its expansion into the bakery sector, Amcor continues to innovate packaging that makes no compromise between sustainability and performance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Amcor\u2019s new AmPrima\u00ae Flowpack Pro solution for bakery products achieves up to an 82%* reduction in carbon footprint compared to traditional packaging \u00a0Amcor ,\u00a0a global leader in developing and producing responsible packaging solutions, has today announced the launch of its new AmPrima\u00ae\u00a0 Flowpack Pro solution for bakery products.
