Clear Lam develops new packaging for Lactalis' cheese product
Clear Lam Packaging, a manufacturer of rigid and flexible packaging, has developed a new, renewable packaging for Lactalis American Group. The new packaging is being produced for varieties of Lactalis’ Precious Sticksters branded cheese sticks.
According to the company, the packaging which holds individually sealed cheese sticks, is made from a lamination of plant-based, renewable plastic. Its outer layer is made from traditional petroleum-based plastic.
This new material, which is 50% plant-based, generates up to 35.2% fewer greenhouse gases and uses up to 36.8% less energy than the conventional petroleum-based materials it replaces. Lactalis has implemented the new packaging as part of its corporate sustainability commitment.
Lactalis American Group president and CEO Frederick Bouisset said the company has achieved that and more with this new packaging.
"We believe that by adopting this new packaging, we are promoting a better future by reducing our energy consumption and environmental impact -- a long-term goal to which we are fully committed," Bouisset added.
Clear Lam Packaging, founded in 1969, offer packaging materials for food, personal health care and other consumer products. It has seven manufacturing facilities and employs nearly 750 people.
