Global flexible packaging and lidding films supplier KM Packaging has introduced a new home-compostable cling film called C-Cling.
According to the company, C-Cling is clear, stretchy, and sticky and performs the same as conventional cling film. As well as home usage, it is ideal for the high-volume industrial packing of fruit and vegetables and other fresh produce on trays. It is also suitable for catering and restaurants.
The product is flexible in material and nature, from daily usage within catering businesses to store and transport food safely, to protecting and preserving the quality and taste of food in the retail environment.
In addition, C-Cling, which is made from bio-based renewable sources, is the perfect partner for compostable trays to create a complete packaging solution. C-Cling is also suitable for secondary packaging, such as pallet wrapping.
The product is part of the bio-plastic C-Range from KM Packaging, developed in partnership with Treetop Biopak, specialising in providing innovative compostable packaging solutions.
Treetop owner Amir Gross said: “C-Cling can be used on an industrial scale for the wrapping of multiple products and is particularly helpful when the trays are also compostable.”
C-Cling film complies with EC food-contact Regulations 1935/2004 and 10/2011. It also complies with FDA regulation 21 CFR 177.1630 provided it is used subject to certain advised limitations and in good manufacturing practices.
