Berry Plastics’ awards include:
Award: Silver - Packaging Excellence
Package: gDiapers Biodegradable Wipes
Package Description: The gDiapers Biodegradable Wipes includes the Rigid Lens II (RLII) closure, encompassing the benefits of both traditional peel ’n reseal labels and molded fitments. Packaging high stack count wet wipes in a flexible package with a RLII closure alleviates the need for using molded fitments, canisters, and tubs. High-quality graphics can be printed directly on the RLII to compliment the respective graphics on the flexible film. This technology and package format can be run on existing equipment for wet wipes and, with the ability to be opened and closed with one hand, provides a user friendly experience.
Award: Silver - Technical Innovation
Package: Easy Peel Lidding for High-Pressure Pasteurization
Package Description: High pressure pasteurization is a growing trend in the food industry. The aggressive conditioning from this technique requires higher performance films to meet industry standards. Berry Plastics’ multilayer co-extrusion technology and polymer knowledge provided a solution, bringing a significant improvement to a challenging process. Product benefits include reduced leaker rates, increased production, and assurance of package integrity through distribution and retail. The end consumer enjoys a convenient easy to open package with attractive clarity.
Award: Silver - Printing Achievement
