Its packaging solutions seamlessly fit with industry machinery and manufacturing practices.<br \/>\nPerfoTec\u2019s patented High Precision Laser Technology facilitates longer shelf-life by adapting the permeability of food packaging.<br \/>\nThese technologies provide an innovative end-of-life solution for produce packaging while supplying retailers and end-consumers with extended produce shelf-life.<br \/>\nThe partnership comes in response to high consumer\u00a0demand\u00a0to reduce food waste and combat plastic pollution. Some 85 percent of UK consumers believe compostable packaging should be used to wrap food as an alternative to plastic.<br \/>\nIndustry demand for environmental plastic substitutes that don\u2019t compromise produce quality is also rising. Growing market share for eco-friendly alternatives to conventional plastic, like compostable films, is projected to be a key contributor to the growth of the global flexible packaging market. The market is expected to increase from 160.8Bn USD to 200.5Bn USD by 2025.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-39196\" src=\"https:\/\/www.converter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/TIPA-Perfotec-Blueberries.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"341\" height=\"214\" \/>PerfoTec\u2019s CEO, Bas Groeneweg said:<\/strong> \u201cAfter months of trials with this film, we realised that TIPA\u2019s compostable film combined with PerfoTec\u2019s patented laser perforation provided the best shelf-life for fruits, vegetables and flowers by far. It provides longer shelf-life and freshness which means fewer quality losses, less food waste and cost savings for producers and retailers.<br \/>\n\u201cPartnering with TIPA to create compostable packaging that can outperform conventional plastic is a hugely exciting step forward for sustainable packaging. We\u2019re delighted to be playing our part in the stride against quality losses, food waste and plastic pollution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ayellet Zinger, VP of Sales for TIPA said:<\/strong> \u201cIn combining our technologies, TIPA and PerfoTec form a synergistic partnership that optimises flexible packaging for produce.<br \/>\n\u201cWe have created an exceptional product that extends the shelf-life of fruit, vegetables and flowers with a protective and fully compostable film that decomposes just like the product its packaging.
