Sharpak has established an exclusive agreement with Zoono Group and OSY Group to incorporate shelf-life extension solutions into its food packaging.
As the UK branch of a leading European manufacturer, Sharpak says it is dedicated to delivering packaging solutions for the food sector.
The partnership seeks to improve the longevity of food items while tackling the increasing issue of food waste.
Zoono had previously encountered difficulties in its traditional markets due to oversupply and changing public perceptions.
Considering this, the company shifted its focus towards niche markets, recognising opportunities within the food supply chain for its antimicrobial offerings.
The alliance with OSY introduced Zoono to the food packaging industry, where its products can significantly prolong shelf life.
This initiative is particularly pertinent for supermarkets and food producers facing challenges related to food waste on a global scale.
After nearly three years of thorough testing and promotion of its technologies, Zoono and OSY have formalised their partnership with Sharpak.
This collaboration is anticipated to enhance their footprint in the UK and EU food shelf-life extension market.
A UK-based supermarket has acknowledged the technology as a ‘game changer’ in the sector, emphasising its adaptability across a variety of products and packaging formats.
Sharpak’s operations are seen as crucial in the UK market, providing a significant portion of packaging for soft fruits.
The company serves a wide array of fresh produce and other food categories, including meat and poultry.
