The transparent high barrier compostable cellulose-based material was launched in 2008 and Innovia claims that it has “the best moisture barrier of any transparent single layer biopolymer film currently available”.
According to east Sussex-based Infinity Foods, the film was chosen to boost the co-operative’s environmental credentials.
“We are always looking for ways to limit our environmental impact and carbon footprint,” said Infinity Foods’ Kieran Gorman. “For example, our catalogues are printed on paper from sustainable forests using no chlorine in manufacture and some of our transport fleet runs on bio-diesel.”
Products in the Infinity range include Organic Chocolate Buttons, Organic High Energy Trail Mix and Hot Chilli Cashew Nuts. Infinity Foods collaborated with Aboxhigh packaging consultant Andy Skinner.
“NatureFlex is one of the most exciting products I have been involved in within my 35 years experience in the packaging industry,” said Skinner. “The high visual shelf appeal of the packs, coupled with sustainability and reduction in carbon footprint fulfils all the criteria that Infinity Foods require.”
