The show is scheduled October 23-26 at McCormick Place in Chicago; Aptar will be located in Booth N-4740. Aptar\u2019s award-winning innovative solutions will also be on display in Pack Expo\u2019s Showcase of Packaging Innovations in Booth W-20052 and in the Institute of Packaging Professionals\u2019 (IoPP) Booth N-4523 in recognition of its innovative approach to closures for a wide range of food and beverages. Aptar Food + Beverage will also unveil its recently launched new brand identity, \u201cCreate. Collaborate. Innovate.\u201d which is one more way for Aptar Food + Beverage to demonstrate the company\u2019s passion and commitment to helping companies achieve their bold environmental targets, while striving to create a much more circular economy and make a positive impact on our planet and in the lives of consumers around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are excited to again exhibit at this important industry event and to have the opportunity to connect in person with customers, prospects, and partners,\u201d said Susan DeGroot, marketing director in North America. \u201cWe are also thrilled to be invited to exhibit our products in the IoPP booth and the Showcase of Packaging Innovations. In our booth, we will show our entire line-up of sustainable, innovative closures for the food and beverage industry, some of which are making their North American debut at the show.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SimpliCycle\u2122 Recyclable Valve \u2013 Sustainability and High-Performance<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Aptar has been the industry leader in providing flow control dispensing solutions for more than 25 years. Its award-winning&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aptar.com\/food-beverage\/simplicycle-valve\/\">SimpliCycle recyclable valve<\/a>&nbsp;is driving sustainability to the forefront of packaging innovation. Made from a low-density material, the valve floats in the recycling tanks, allowing it to be easily separated from the PET stream, and then recycled right along with the PP\/PE stream. When assembled into an Aptar closure, the SimpliCycle valve provides a fully recyclable and high-performance solution for use with PET, PE, or PP containers. SimpliCycle was honored to be recently awarded the best CSR\/Sustainability initiative in 2021 by World Food Innovation Awards and received the prestigious&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aptar.com\/news-events\/aptar-food-beverages-simplicycle-recyclable-valve-wins-recognition-at-the-2022-worldstar-global-packaging-awards\/\">2022 WorldStar Global Packaging award<\/a>&nbsp;for packaging innovation as well as the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.iopp.org\/i4a\/pages\/index.cfm?pageid=4878\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2022 AmeriStar Award<\/a>&nbsp;in the Sustainable Packaging category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rocket to the Next Generation Sport Cap<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Aptar will show its next-generation&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aptar.com\/news-events\/aptar-food-beverages-rocket-next-generation-sport-cap\/\">Rocket sport cap<\/a>, a tethered solution that redefines the standard for non-detachable, tamper-evident visibility, featuring a wide opening angle for drinking comfort. The Rocket sport cap offers visual consumer safety through a yellow-colored band that indicates whether the packaging has been opened on store shelves or at home. This solution redefines beverage packaging safety standards as the first one in the market to provide a visual and intuitive non-detachable tamper evidence indicator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tower Delivers the Cleanest Dispensing of Popular Chili Sauces<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The chili sauces\u2019 category is a hot growing market within sauces and condiments. According to a recent&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instacart.com\/company\/updates\/a-hot-take-on-americas-favorite-hot-sauces\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instacart survey<\/a>, \u201c74% of Americans eat hot sauce with their food, and nearly half (45%) said they typically dash hot sauce on their food once a week or more often.\u201d But a pain point uncovered by Aptar through independent consumer studies is a lack of package cleanliness throughout the product\u2019s life. To combat this challenge, Aptar Food + Beverage is delighted to introduce Tower. Unlike traditional twist-to-open closures used in this format today, Tower leverages a flip-top design. This allows consumers to open the cap without having to touch or view any leftover product residue. Its directional tip also encourages the familiar dashing gesture but reduces the likelihood that product will collect on the closure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ultra XLV: The Ultimate Dispensing Experience for Thick and High Viscous Foods<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aptar.com\/products\/food-beverage\/ultra-xlv\/\">2\u2033 Ultra XLV snap top closure<\/a>&nbsp;is an expansion of Aptar\u2019s 2\u201d Ultra product line, offering a large flow control valve with SimpliSqueeze or SimpliCycle. XLV brings convenient and hygienic dispensing to a wider range of products, including sauces and spreads, such as peanut butter, cream cheese, guacamole, or salsa, that previously required a utensil to spread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Industry\u2019s Broadest Array of Sustainable Food and Beverage Closures<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are also pleased that our prototype, SLIDE closure, a liner-free solution, was recognized as a 2022 AmeriStar Award Winner by IoPP in the sustainable packaging category and will be on display in our booth as well as in the Innovation Showcase,\u201d DeGroot added. \u201cSLIDE is unique in that it does not require the application of a foil liner between the cap and bottle. Removing the foil liner component improves the consumer opening convenience, eliminates waste as liners are not recyclable, and may reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 16%. This is just another example of our focus on sustainability, performance, hygiene, and consumer convenience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visitors to the Aptar booth at the show will be able to experience the industry\u2019s broadest array of sustainable food and beverage closures as well as take advantage of the expertise of the Aptar team to help address solutions to their packaging needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information about Aptar\u2019s products and solutions for food, beverage, and other industries, visit&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.aptar.com\/food-beverage\/\">www.aptar.com\/food-beverage\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On display: multiple award-winning dispensing solutions and full range of breakthrough closures for food and beverage products Aptar Food + Beverage, a global leader in consumer product dispensing and active material science solutions, is pleased to announce its presence at Pack Expo International 2022, one of the world\u2019s largest trade fairs for packaging and processing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5289,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[71],"tags":[227],"class_list":{"0":"post-5286","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tech-innovation","8":"tag-aptar"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5286","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5286"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5286\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5288,"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5286\/revisions\/5288"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5289"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5286"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5286"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5286"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
