COLPAC has announced an expansion of its recyclable multi-food pots with the introduction of a natural kraft 950ml option.
The company has launched a kraft pot, with a separate rPET lid, in the new size as part of its stock range so it can be offered as an off-the-shelf solution to a wider customer base.
The existing range includes 470ml, 550ml, 700ml, and 1300ml pots. The new 950ml bridges the gap between Colpac’s larger sizes, described as suiting higher value lunches to-go and meal offerings for later day parts. It also offers flexibility to foodservice operators and retailers to package a more substantial meal with added value perception, without the need to jump to a 1300ml pot.
Kate Berry, head of marketing and product, explained, “Our continued, successful production of 950ml multi-food pots for key customers helped us to identify the opportunity for this size to be added to our stocked range. We can now give our customers even more choice and support their menu development across a broader range of sizes.”
Colpac’s multi-food pots feature a grease-resistant interior coating, meaning they can cope with oily dressings whilst maintaining their structural integrity.
The pots have a wide aperture for ‘excellent’ product visibility, showcasing the dishes within. They can be fitted with rPET, anti-mist lids, maintaining clarity in chilled display. They can also be heat sealed to provide additional shelf-life beyond that of a lidded option.
The multi-food pots are manufactured from FSC-certified paperboard and can be recycled after use as they contain less than 10% plastic. The lids are also recyclable and are made with 100% recycled PET.
