Your product requires freshness and protection. Thanks to outstanding barrier properties and resealability, Sonoco’s plastic packaging offers an ideal, convenient and lightweight packaging solution for dairy products — and it looks great on the shelf.
Our plastic tubs are easy to open, even for special groups like children and the elderly. With a sealable membrane upon purchase, and a lid that snaps tight upon reclose, your customers can feel good about product storage and reuse.
You can feel good about product protection, too. Our revolutionary combination of in-mould labelling, sealing properties and injection moulding opens a range of possibilities for our customers’ product concepts and applications. Our durable packaging stands up to rigorous filling, shipping and shelf conditions in a range of temperatures.
In-Mould Labelling (IML)
Sonoco’s plastic consumer packaging is injection moulded using an in-mould labelling (IML) technique. This technique guarantees maximum freedom of design, showcasing your brand’s visual strategy while standing out on the shelf.
Our IML packaging offers:
- Shelf appeal
Access superior graphics and branding via a label that covers more of your packaging’s surface area - Protection
Tests have shown a dramatically reduced water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) compared to standard monolayer polypropylene packaging - Strength
The robust structure will survive the retort process - Efficiency
Choose a nestable design for supply chain optimization - Simplicity
IML packaging offers a high barrier delivered via a monolayer structure - Convenience
Lightweight and easy to open, IML packaging is ideal for on-the-go consumers
In-mould labelling is available for all our plastic consumer packaging, with standing the rigorous filling and storing methods for pasteurised, heat-sterilised and frozen foods.
