ProAmpac, which ranks in the top 10 of flexible packaging producers in the United States, introduced its fibre-based modified air-modelled RAP sandwich wedge to the North American market. Designed for sandwiches and packaging, this ground-breaking packaging is fibre-based and introduces the concept of modified air-conditioned packaging.
By combining the benefits of modified air conditioning packaging with sustainable fiber materials, ProAmpac addresses the need to reduce food spoilage, environmentally friendly packaging and enhance the consumer experience in the food to go market. ProAmpac's RAP Sandwich Wedges are capable of preserving fresh sandwiches or packages for up to 28 days, a groundbreaking approach that sets new standards for freshness and sustainability in fast food
"Sustainability is at the heart of ProAmpac's business strategy and we are delighted to launch the fibre-based Modified Atmospheric Packaging (MAP) RAP sandwich wedged," said Irma Randles, Fresh Food to Go marketing Manager at ProAmpac. "Our packaging solutions represent a more sustainable alternative to traditional plastic sandwich packaging while reducing the risk of food spoilage."
ProAmpac's RAP sandwich wedge combines a carton board structure with a film lining to optimize product preservation and visibility. This innovative solution uses a sealed design that utilizes high barrier technology to extend the shelf life of the product, especially when combined with gas filling technology. RAP Sandwich wedges can extend shipping and sales time, increasing sales potential while minimizing food waste.
"RAP sandwich wedges are widely recyclable. Consumers can strip the film lining, and the carton board is easily recycled in the paper stream. Made from responsible fibers and using less plastic packaging than traditional rigid containers, the RAP sandwich wedge significantly reduces packaging waste, "said Kevin Vyse, ProAmpac RAP Product Technology Lead.
