ProAmpac, a leading provider of flexible packaging and material science, has been recognized for its innovative and sustainable packaging solutions at the 2024 AmeriStar Awards. The company received two awards in the Sustainable Packaging category, as well as contributed to a third recognition for an innovative e-commerce solution.
The awards recognize ProAmpac’s commitment to sustainability and innovation in the packaging industry. The company’s RAP Sandwich Wedge for Sammi’s, ProActive Recyclable RP-1000 Paper Series for Marks & Spencer’s organic potatoes, and ProActive Recyclable FiberCool insulated paper bag for e-commerce delivery were all recognized for their contributions to sustainable packaging.
The RAP Sandwich Wedge features a high-barrier fiber-based carton board with a transparent window, allowing for optimal product preservation and visibility while maintaining very low oxygen levels for extended shelf life and decreased food waste. The ProActive Recyclable RP-1000 Paper Series offers superior robustness and a premium natural look for packing organic potatoes, while also being fully recyclable in the UK and FSC-certified for responsible sourcing.
ProAmpac’s technical team is dedicated to advancing fiber packaging innovation across diverse markets, with a focus on developing sustainable solutions that meet the needs of its customers. The company’s goal is to drive impactful, eco-friendly advancements in the industry through its innovative packaging solutions.
The ProActive Recyclable FiberCool insulated paper bag is another example of ProAmpac’s commitment to sustainability, replacing a traditional multi-package system with a curbside-recyclable solution that reduces packaging weight and enhances thermal retention. This innovation helps reduce food spoilage and waste, giving customers more flexibility with their groceries after delivery.
Overall, ProAmpac’s recognition at the AmeriStar Awards highlights the company’s dedication to developing sustainable and innovative packaging solutions that benefit both consumers and the environment.
