Berry Global will be showcasing its latest circular packaging innovations for the food industry at this year’s Foodex exhibition scheduled to take place from 7-9 April at NEC Birmingham
The display will focus on circularity-driven solutions - such as the use of mono-materials for improved recyclability, and recycled content in non-contact sensitive applications such as collation shrink films and stretch wrap for pallet protection - while maintaining essential packaging roles like product protection, preservation, and consumer convenience.
Attendees at the show will get the opportunity to discover how Berry’s expertise in both flexible and rigid plastics enables the development of packaging that supports brand positioning, enhances functionality and meets the evolving requirements of food producers and retailers.
Flexible packaging highlights will include:
- Omni Xtra + Cling Film: A recyclable polyethylene alternative to PVC cling film, delivering high clarity, anti-fog properties, and strong shelf presence.
- Entour Mono-Material Lamination Films: Designed for bags, pouches, and flow wraps, these films offer a recyclable* alternative to hard-to-recycle multi-material structures.
- Mono-Material Pouches: Berry’s mono-material pouches offer a recyclable* solution for dry food applications such as snacks and pet foods, delivering excellent barrier properties, durability, and high-quality print surfaces to support strong branding and shelf impact.
- Films for Frozen Foods and Snacks: Designed for versatility and durability, Berry’s range of single wound sheet (SWS) films provide robust protection for many types of products including frozen food and snacks. Made from recyclable mono-material polyethylene, they can supportsustainability goals without compromising performance.
- Secondary &Tertiary Packaging: Containing high-quality post-consumer recycled content, Berry’s Collation Shrink Film and Bontite Sustane 30% PCR Stretch Film are helping customers meet their targets to include more recycled materials while maintaining packaging integrity.
On the other hand, rigid packaging innovations range from squeezable bottles to high-capacity jars that are designed to meet the practical demands of both consumer-facing brands and busy foodservice environments. Two notable products include their Euro Squeeze and Orion bottles that offer easy, mess-free dispensing for sauces, dressings and condiments, with compatibility across multiple closures and fill types. Two other examples include Sapphire and Bear jars that provide durable, stackable solutions for larger volume applications.
With a focus on functionality, storage efficiency, and labelling flexibility, all formats are also designed for recycling – supporting customers’ sustainability goals without compromising performance or usability.
