Kellogg has launched a range of breakfast pouches containing a blend of oats, protein and fibre.

Nutri-Grain TO GO Protein Squeezers comes in five flavours: Choc Malt Slam; Mocha Hit; Banana & Honey Smash; Vanilla Flavour Punch; and Nutri-Grain Flavour (which blends oatmeal and malt).

Designed for convenience, the single serve pouches suit consumers on the go who want a quick breakfast or pre-training 'fuel'.

The Squeezers adds to Kellogg's portables offering, which includes its recently launched range of soft-baked breakfast bars.

“We know from our research that one in two breakfast skippers would eat more breakfast if more convenient solutions were offered that fit into their lifestyle,” marketing director Tamara Howe said.

“There’s tremendous opportunity for growth in this segment within the Australian and New Zealand market.”

Nutri-Grain TO GO Protein Squeezers (140g) have an RRP of $2.99.

Packaging News

New European rules on generic environmental claims have prompted the Australasian Bioplastics Association to warn that packaging carrying poorly substantiated claims could be marketed in Australia.

Australia's environment ministers have declared packaging reform urgent and named soft plastics as an initial priority, but offered no firm timetable or regulatory commitments. SPSA has welcomed the soft plastics focus, while Boomerang Alliance and WMRR have raised concerns about the lack of concrete action.

Economic analysis commissioned by SPSA estimates national recycling reforms could deliver up to $278m in net productivity gains and stimulate up to $2.6b in capital investment each year.
