Plastic is just "plastic" to the untrained eye. In reality, modern plastics are based on a composition of various raw materials with different characteristics to obtain materials with specific technical characteristics for various uses.
Arcoplastica specialises in the thermoformation of innovative materials, therefore responding to the most modern and complex of client packaging requirements.
The principle need of the food sector is to preserve freshness and the organoleptic characteristics of the product (from packaging to delivery to end consumer) for ever-increasing lengths of time and without resorting to the use of excessive amounts of preservatives.
Arcoplastica products for food packaging enable the:
- reduction or elimination of additives and preservatives in packaged food
- notable extension in the shelf life of products
- presentation of the product as is, in transparent packaging with anti-UV barriers, which is equally rigid in comparison to traditional packaging
- heating or freezing of the food in its packaging
- cooking of food up to 200 °C in microwave or traditional ovens.
