Fresh investment for Freshware as demand at LINPAC increases April 4, 2014 News LINPAC Packaging is to invest further in its Freshform division as demand for its products for the chilled retail prepared and convenience sector continues to increase. In January 2013, LINPAC launched its Freshware range of tubs, trays and containers for the rapidly growing sector following the installation of new highly flexible thermoforming equipment at the company’s headquarters in Featherstone, West Yorkshire, UK. Fourteen months on and the division is operating at full capacity prompting a second phase of investment which will see an additional new flexible thermoformer installed to enable the company to continue to offer a fast turnaround supply of new designs for the high churn convenience and prepared foods market. It takes the total amount invested by Europe’s leading multi-material packaging manufacturer in its Freshform division to approximately £2m since October 2012. The Freshware range comprises of packaging for prepared fruit and salads, dips, sandwich fillers, fresh pasta, pizza, prepared vegetables (e.g. stir-fry), chilled bakery, cooked meats and prepared fish, and is now being sold to customers across Europe. The largest order to date has been for 40m containers from a leading retailer in the UK. New products and innovations for the Freshware range in 2014 include easy peel films and portioned packs and hinged boxes for the LeanBake® range. www.linpacpackaging.com About Latest Posts Publisher Latest posts by Publisher (see all) ZEO INVESTS IN LARGEST EVER BRAND RELAUNCH WITH NEW NO ADDED SUGAR RANGE & CELEBRITY AMBASSADOR CAROLINE FLACK - April 26, 2017 NEEDHAM CODING LAUNCHES FIRST OWN BRAND CONTINUOUS INK JET PRINTERS - April 25, 2017 FANUC ROBOTS CAN HANDLE THEIR BELGIUM BEER - April 25, 2017
