RPC OAKHAM IS CATERING FOR CATERFORCE

Independent food consortium Caterforce has selected RPC Containers Oakham to manufacture the packs for its latest range of products for the catering industry.

The 200PS 2.5L injection-moulded tub is being produced in white PP for the Chefs’ Selections by Caterforce range of fruit fillings and sauces – the first time the catering giant has sourced containers from RPC Oakham.

The container is also decorated at the Oakham site using in-mould labelling (IML). The full colour label matches those used across the Chefs’ Selections range. In addition to the ease of use in a catering environment, the lightweight, shatterproof characteristics of the plastic containers give them a safety advantage in the kitchen.

The RPC Oakham range is available in sizes from 1.8-25L and although Caterforce has chosen a no-handle option, it can also easily be fitted with a plastic or metal handle.

Established in 1991, Caterforce is a buying and marketing consortium working with seven of the UK’s leading independent foodservice wholesalers. With a combined turnover in excess of £300 million, Caterforce wholesalers offer an extensive range of branded frozen, chilled and grocery products, together with a comprehensive range of own label products. Chefs’ Selections offers an ever growing range of products designed specifically with chefs in mind and the fruit fillings are just a few of the products available in the ever growing range.

Nick Redford of Caterforce says: “The RPC Oakham containers are ideal for the Chefs’ Selections range, and the option to decorate using IML made everything easier.”
