PROTECTION OF ENVIRONMENT

Ecological package is the world trend of the day

Foodstuffs consumer package is:

  - easy to handle
  - economical
  - made of recyclable plastic material.

Environmentally safe package

In accordance with an international study prepared by Swiss Environmental Protection Agency, LDPE (Low Density Polyethylene) based pouch package has been selected as most ecological package. In the study, three main factors were compared:

  - requirement of energy
  - pollution of air
  - pollution of ground waters.

The used packages can be recycled for secondary use. Just as importantly, the used pouches occupy up to 75% less space than cartons. This will significantly reduce waste disposal costs in schools, cafeterias or fast-food outlets, where cartons account roughly a quarter of the total waste generated.
