IPL Plastics adds to IML-capable food packaging offering

IPL Plastics has announced the launch of two new sizes of containers for the food industry that the manufacturer says are both tamper evident and IML capable.

The containers, which can be used for products including soup, sauce, dips and gravy, are available in 365ml and 670ml capacities. IPL said brand new tooling has been developed at the Protech Plastics Cork facility to produce the containers.

Both products are available in high-clarity polypropylene or in an “unlimited” range of colours, IPL added. They come unlabelled from stock allowing for offline post mould labelling or printing, as well as high definition premium IML decoration.

Jamie Clark, director of retail sales at IPL Plastics Europe said, “These two new sizes are a welcome addition to our existing food range, which are all now IML-capable. Our dedicated team at Protech Cork has developed these containers with food manufacturers in mind ensuring they can be hot-filled and with highly effective and easy to operate tamper-proofing.

“We now have a very diverse range of food packaging items which complement our existing range of dairy and food containers, all manufactured in a brand new BRC Grade AA accredited production environment.”
