The first ones to request more sustainable food packages were the customers, in a more general way. However, more specifically, it was the on-premises channel that asked for a change of habits for a product as specific as butter. They challenged the sector: Is it really necessary to continue wrapping butter sticks in materials made up of aluminum and paper? Eniter offers a wrapping solution made 100% from paper, without aluminum and keeping the packaging conditions that butter needs.
Protection with excellent mechanic properties
In order to keep the butter unspoiled, we need to use a wrapping system, which is capable of resisting fat and moisture. This way, if refrigerated, the butter will stay fresh and it will not dry up. That’s basically it. What happens is that, so far, we had been using paper and aluminum together because of the mechanic advantages offered by the combination of both.
Given this, in Eniter we have created a wrapping solution made up 100% of paper, which is resistant to fat and moisture.
A sustainable, recyclable, compostable solution
This paper wrap is resistant to fat and moisture. We have also worked for this material to be as mechanically simple to use as aluminum solutions. Our aim is to provide customers with an ideal experience
Eniter’s proposal thus becomes a very valuable alternative in terms of sustainability, because the wrap can be recycled in the paper and cardboard container and become paper pulp once again. If there are food remains, we can recycle it in the organic container.
Less aluminum in complex packaging
Although aluminum is highly recyclable in solutions like food cans or beverages, when it is laminated and included in sliced complexes, it becomes, in practice, a virtually unrecoverable material. Under these circumstances, eliminating or substituting it necessary from a sustainable point of view.
