Strong barrier for longer life

In the Netherlands, ProMessa, a supplier of fresh meat products to supermarkets, has reduced its plastics use by 70 per cent using an Omori Flow Wrapper.

For the retailer, the equipment brings environmental benefits and extended shelf-life for products. It has also reduced transportation load in terms of both the packaging material and the packaged end products.

The result is that ProMessa has been able to reduce its overheads with transport movements, material costs, energy costs, and running costs.

Omori’s Australian distributor, Perfect Automation, says the sealing technology encases the flow packs in a strong barrier protection film that allows for longer shelf life and reduced food wastage.

Omori also offers recloseable packing that can reduce a company’s plastic footprint by 50 per cent, and spoilage of fresh and chilled products.
