Sabert launches PulpUltra, a game changer in food packaging

Already introduced in Ireland with bespoke childrens’ meal packaging and in France with the Gastronorme range, Sabert Corporation Europe is now launching its latest innovation, PulpUltra, across Europe and the UK and Ireland.

‘Over a decade ago, Sabert was the first to bring quality, functional bagasse pulp packaging solutions to the European market,’ said Alex Noake, Senior vice president and managing director for Sabert Europe. ‘Now, we are pioneering PulpUltra, a game changing next generation, no intentionally added PFAS formulation that meets both legislative standards and customers’ expectations for superior strength and heat resistance.’

The new solution combines performance and versatility and is an ideal packaging solution for fresh, ready to eat dishes and hot foods. Made from over 95% bagasse fibres and treated with a barrier spray coating. PulpUltra delivers outstanding oil and grease resistance (OGR) permeation in direct contact, hot food applications.

It is also freezer safe and able to retain frozen goods integrity, perishable goods freshness, and keep factory conditioned items intact. It is safe for use in microwaves, conventional ovens, and MerryChef applications, and is suitable for single PET sealing or multi-welding. In terms of sustainability, it is recyclable (green in the UK’s Recycling Assessment Methodology (RAM), compliant with the European Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) and certified as Compostable TÜV OK Compost Industrial. Home compostable certification will also soon be announced).
