Organic ready to eat meal provider pack&satt has worked with Koehler Paper to develop paper packaging for convenience products with its NexPlus Advanced flexible packaging paper for the first time ever. The packaging paper product provides ideal protection for ‘einpott’ ready to eat meals thanks to its extraordinary oxygen, mineral oil, and grease barrier properties.
pack&satt ready to eat meals were originally bottled in returnable jars. However, customer feedback, coupled with a general overhaul of the product, led the company to look for alternative packaging options, ‘We found out that using paper instead of glass to hold dry product would improve our environmental footprint,’ said pack&satt founder Sophie Gnest. ‘We were tremendously happy when we found Koehler and saw that it offered the right packaging material for our needs.’
‘When developing Koehler NexPlus Advanced flexible packaging paper, the focus was on making it recyclable and ensuring it would provide outstanding product protection. As a result, the paper can be recycled conventionally and reused frequently,’ added Alexander Rauer, head of business development for flexible packaging paper products at Koehler Paper. This recyclability has been confirmed by the Papiertechnische Stiftung (PTS) institute with CepI testing, as well as by environmental service provider Interzero with its ‘Made for Recycling’ seal.
NexFlex is a wide range of recyclable flexible packaging paper solutions. The aim is to replace plastic in packaging by using so-called barrier paper wherever possible. The range covers a broad spectrum including standard coated and uncoated paper used in laminates for pouches, sachets, and other applications, making them suitable for a wide range of packaging for food and non food products.
