ProDairy, a new product of Pulewang fried, is launched! Yogurt packaging contains less than 10% plastic

The internationally renowned manufacturer of sustainable food packaging is proud to present its latest solution for the yoghurt and dairy industry, ProDairy, an innovative single-coat recyclable paper cup product. Pule emphasises that the ProDairy range not only fully meets the high food safety standards of yoghurt products, but also has a significantly lower polymer content than traditional alternative packaging solutions.

ProDairy cups are made up of less than 10% plastic in the entire product range and are fully recyclable in Europe. In particular, the cups are produced in Europe and are made from sustainably managed forests, ensuring a reliable source of renewable wood fiber.

Frederick Davidson, President of Pure Fiber Food Services Europe-Asia-Oceania, praised the solution as "functional" and highlighted the excellent barrier properties and competitive cost-effectiveness of the ProDairy cups. "Dairy products are an integral part of people's daily diet. Creating recyclable packaging for products like yoghurt for everyday consumption has always been a challenging task, especially when it comes to ensuring that the packaging meets the high performance standards required for dairy products while also being environmentally friendly. "With the launch of ProDairy, a recyclable single-coated paper cup, we will help our customers effectively meet the urgent need for consumers to reduce the amount of plastic used in their packaging." "

In order to successfully develop ProDairy, the team said that in order to successfully develop ProDairy, the team made bold innovations in the rim design and crimping process of the cup, cleverly overcoming the technical challenges typically encountered when reducing the polymer content of dairy packaging.

In addition, Pule has developed a unique patented sealing coat technology that gives ProDairy cups a strong and reliable side seam seal. "Our R&D team has innovatively found a special varnish that successfully replaces the conventional outer polyethylene coating. This varnish not only retains the tactile feel and matte visual effect of paper-based materials, but also provides excellent moisture protection for products stored in refrigerated conditions. "

Frederick Davidson further explained, "This is critical for dairy producers, retailers and consumers at large. ProDairy ensures that our unique product offers the same functionality as traditional paper cups with very low plastic content, while still being fully recyclable, making it truly environmentally friendly and practical. "

Previously, Australian organic yoghurt brand five:am introduced a new paper drum for its yoghurt product line. This makes five:am the first brand in the yoghurt sector to adopt this type of packaging. The new drum and lid are made from 90% responsibly sourced cardboard and lined with a thin layer of PE plastic to ensure that the yoghurt product retains its original quality and freshness. According to Five:AM, this packaging innovation is expected to reduce the use of more than 100 tonnes of virgin plastic in its packaging materials each year, reinforcing the brand's ongoing commitment to reducing plastic waste.

Chris Elliott, CEO of five:am, noted that the shift from plastic packaging to paper drums represents a major breakthrough for the dairy industry. "We are launching a campaign to reduce plastic packaging by replacing traditional plastic packaging with more sustainable paper cans," he said. This is a huge step forward for our brand and for the dairy industry as a whole. At the recent DIAA Australian Dairy Competition, five:am's all-natural organic yoghurt product has been recognised as the best of its kind in the market. Now, with our new, more sustainable packaging, five:am has undoubtedly raised the industry standard to the next level. "

In order to develop paper-based packaging for liquid products such as yoghurt, five:am has carried out extensive and in-depth research and development work in close cooperation with packaging suppliers. The company confirmed that it had also adapted its existing product filling equipment to accommodate the new packaging format. The new paper drums are sealed with aluminum foil to ensure that the product retains its quality throughout its shelf life. In addition, the packaging is equipped with a paper cover, which further enhances the overall environmental characteristics.
