The packaging paper product from Koehler Paper provides ideal protection for \u201ceinpott\u201d ready-to-eat meals thanks to its extraordinary oxygen, mineral oil, and grease barrier properties. pack&amp;satt products are available in three flavors: \u201cTomate Linse\u201d (lentils and tomato), \u201cCurry Linse\u201d (lentil curry), and \u201cRote Bete Kartoffel\u201d (red beet and potato).<\/p>\n<h4>Recyclable paper packaging makes circular value creation a reality\u00a0<\/h4>\n<p>pack&amp;satt ready-to-eat meals were originally bottled in returnable jars. However, customer feedback, coupled with a general overhaul of the product, led the company to look for alternative packaging options.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur customers frequently told us that if they had an electric kettle, that meant that they also had bowls or cups available, making the jars redundant. And on top of that, we found out that using paper instead of glass to hold dry product would improve our environmental footprint. Given all that, we were tremendously happy when we found Koehler and saw that they offered the right packaging material for our needs,\u201d explains pack&amp;satt founder Sophie Gnest.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen developing \u2018Koehler NexPlus\u00ae Advanced\u2019 flexible packaging paper, the focus was on making it recyclable and ensuring it would provide outstanding product protection. As a result, the paper can be recycled conventionally and reused frequently,\u201d adds Alexander Rauer, Head of Business Development for Flexible Packaging Paper Products at Koehler Paper.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This recyclability has been confirmed by the Papiertechnische Stiftung (PTS) institute with CEPI testing, as well as by environmental service provider Interzero with its \u201cMade for Recycling\u201d seal.<\/p>\n<h4>Innovative Paper Solutions with \u201cNexFlex\u00ae\u201d from Koehler Paper\u00a0<\/h4>\n<p>The research and development team from Koehler Innovation &amp; Technology worked with the experts from Koehler Paper to develop the NexFlex\u00ae product range, a unique and recyclable generation of flexible packaging paper. The aim here is to replace plastic in packaging by using barrier paper wherever possible. The range covers a broad spectrum. It includes standard coated and uncoated paper used in laminates for pouches, sachets, and other applications, making them suitable for a wide range of packaging for food and non-food products.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The next generation of paper for flexible packaging is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.packagingstrategies.com\/topics\/3782-sustainable-flexible-packaging\" id=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">sustainable<\/a> barrier paper with functional surfaces for product-specific protection (Koehler NexPlus\u00ae). The NexFlex\u00ae product family also includes paper coated on one side with good dimensional stability and high smoothness (Koehler NexCoat\u00ae), as well as uncoated paper with a natural appearance (Koehler NexPure\u00ae).
