ALUMINIUM ROLLINg INDUSTRY Philly Brick Product Preservation The balance between offering sustainable packaging solutions while maintaining or improving the product protection required can often be difficult to achieve. These two products were able to meet this challenge in highly effective ways. HiPer Wrap A new flow pack material, HiPer Wrap, developed by Constantia Flexibles, offers an alternative to film-based flow wrap for the confectionery sector which is capable running on high speed lines at 400 units per minute, while offering improved barrier functionality. HiPer Wrap offers alufoil manufacturers an opportunity to re-enter this market segment after some years when it was not regarded as the first choice for some confectionery products. The coextruded aluminium foil can be used on a standard folding machine, but can also operate on a flow wrapping machine where, until now, only film applications have been possible. In addition there are potential energy savings through lower seal temperatures as well as improved product protection due to the versatile properties of aluminium foil. Guala Closures picked up its second award for the Viiva screw cap (see photo on page 44), an aluminium closure specifically designed for high pressure sparkling wines. The closure ensures pressure retention before and after the first opening. It will keep a sparkling wine’s correct level of carbonation (or fizz) for weeks after opening. The screw cap offers much improved security against spillage or leaking during transportation or storage once the bottle has been re-closed. Being just one component, Viiva has clear advantages over traditional closures for sparkling wines, yet looks and performs like a regular screw cap. Also it is easy to apply using the same equipment as for still wines and the recyclability of aluminium is an environmental benefit. Discretionary Awards In making two discretionary awards the judges recognised two very different aspects of alufoil’s all round abilities. An improved soup pack showed first class performance across several categories and, in the other case, the remarkable barrier properties of aluminium were shown off to best advantage by keeping moisture in! The Feinschmeckerpouch, made by Constantia Flexibles for Unilever’s Knorr dry soup range, scored highly for Technical Innovation, Consumer Convenience and Marketing + De- Feinschmecker-pouch sign to make it stand out as an innovative use of alufoil. It is claimed as the first peelable, bottom gusseted pouch, which offers a new format in RescueTec dry food applications. Due to the combination of two flaps and easy peel opening the consumer can open the pouch in a very convenient way without the need of additional equipment such as scissors. Also, as the pack does not get split into two pieces when opening the branding remains intact and ensures the full readability of the food preparation instructions, content description, shelf life dates and other information. The RescueTec pack, made by Protective Packaging, is capable of regenerating mobiles phones or other electronic devices which have been damaged by immersion in water or other aqueous liquids. It was felt to be a highly novel application of alufoil’s barrier properties. The pack contains an indicator plus a unique desiccant sachet. The desiccant is extremely powerful and extracts every molecule of water from any component which is placed in the pack. The foil pouch laminate is heat sealable, as during the pack assembly the desiccant sachet and indicator are rapidly inserted through the open end of the pouch, which is then hermetically sealed. A zip lock is sealed during the drying process but allows access to the indicating system to confirm the removal of every water molecule has been completed.
