Revolutionary Flexible Packaging Cyclero

Huhtamaki's revolutionary Cyclero flexible packaging received the Alufoil Trophy 2007 award.

Amaroy uses Cyclero as an easy-open and reclosed container for its Kaffe Pads coffee. The referee of the Alufoil Trophy 2007 award, David Smith, Global Packaging Technology and International Quality Director from Kraft Foods, described the package as: “It is a very creative sealed light package that combines rigid packaging with flexible packaging. Dual features can be used for the packaging of a wide range of products, with great potential for future applications."

Kaffe Pads coffee is packed in popular pads. Because the coffee pad cannot be squeezed or folded, and if you want to keep the aroma of the coffee, the coffee cannot be exposed to the air. The end user desperately needs a solution. Cyclero, this problem is solved. With Cyclero packaging, consumers will have access to products that are convenient, and Cyclero optimises product and fragrance protection, and is lighter in weight, which is very conducive to logistics and environmental protection. Cyclero is not only suitable for coffee, it also has great application prospects in other fields.

Basically, Cyclero can be said to be a reasonably optimized version of the conventional edgeless seal-free standing pouch, while Cyclero maintains the advantages of flexible packaging not found in traditional cans, jars and cardboard packaging.

Cyclero can be applied to multiple industries. From non-carbonated beverages to snacks, cereals and instant foods, to microwaveable meat products and more.
