New DuPont Materials for Recloseable, Resealable Packaging Can Reduce Food Waste
In a world where many cost-conscious consumers buy food in bulk, the ability to confidently re-close the package to keep food fresh is critical in preventing food waste. A new packaging solution from Bemis Co. using DuPont materials is one that can contribute to reducing some of the 1.3 million tons of food that is lost or wasted around the world annually.
Bemis Co. recently developed a new BelGioioso Mild Provolone packaging solution using DuPont Selar PA and DuPont Bynel in a resealable package. The package is made up of two individually sealed compartments. This transformational package provides consumer convenience by allowing the user to easily peel and reseal the package 20 times or more with fingertip pressure. What’s more, the package is perforated which allows the consumer to easily separate the two compartments without using a knife or scissors.
