Problem

Plastic is ubiquitous in today's society. A great amount of plastic is specifically flowing into the packaging industry. However, economical and technical limitations cause most plastic packaging to have a linear and unsustainable life, often characterized by a very short use phase.


Solution

Pouch 5 by Gualapack ia a monomaterial PP Pouch for hot fill and pasteurised applications or for chilled and dairy applications. It is fully recyclable and offers a high oxygen and water vapour barrier. Pouch5 is a perfect replacement for existing shelf stable packaging.
