ALUMINIUM tray producer i2r Packaging Solutions has added to its container portfolio with the B Series.
The expanded range, which is in addition to the existing four D Series and four S Series profiles, features six new designs that are said to provide ‘even greater versatility and sustainability’ for businesses looking to replace plastic equivalents.
i2r added that the aluminium smoothwall containers deliver ‘superior’ functionality while reducing reliance on single-use plastics. Their ‘robust’ design, combined with 100% recyclable aluminium, aims to deliver a sustainable solution that offers ‘exceptional durability and versatility’.
The complete portfolio now consists of three distinct series, each designed to meet specific packaging requirements. The B Series is primarily intended for premium and seasonal products such as pork belly, glazed gammon and stuffed meat joints. With capacities ranging from 1,112ml to 1,510ml, the containers are aimed at ‘ready to cook’ dishes that include added-value elements such as herbs and butter. The D Series features ‘lightweight yet durable’ containers suitable for a range of applications. Sizes vary from 859ml to 1,737ml. Meanwhile, the S Series offers deeper containers, with capacities of up to 1,900ml, intended for larger items including rolled or stuffed meat joints.
The entire aluminium range is manufactured from 100% recyclable material and features a smoothwall rectangular design with a reverse curl G-rim.
Tom Cliffe, i2r’s sales director, said, “The introduction of the B Series reflects our ongoing commitment to innovation and sustainability. We’re proud to offer packaging solutions that not only support businesses in reducing their environmental footprint but also enhance the value and appeal of their products.”
