For Immediate Release
LINPAC AND
COMITAL UNVEIL CukiLIN®
Secure
aluminium tray and film packaging solution launched
Two leading packaging
companies in different fields have come together to create CukiLIN®
- a complete aluminium tray and film lid solution ideal for oven-ready meals.
LINPAC Packaging, the
leading European multi-material packaging company, has been working closely
with aluminium tray specialists Comital to create a combination that offers excellent
on-shelf presentation, extended shelf-life and delivers optimal performance
when running on packaging lines.
LINPAC’s high barrier
films LINtop PP HB and LINtop
Alu HB have been specially developed to be compatible
with aluminium trays. They offer a tight robust seal which means there is no
need for the product to also be packaged in a cardboard sleeve, while both
films have anti-fog properties to improve visibility of the product on the
shelf.
The CukiLIN® partnership means that a constant level of service
and on-site technical support is available throughout
The range has undergone
extensive testing to ensure it meets the needs of packers, retailers and the
consumer.
Comital has designed their
plain and lacquered smooth wall trays to offer one of the widest flange areas
available on the market, improving the sealing properties
which reduces the risk of food contamination due to seal breakage.
When combined with
LINPAC’s LINtop PP HB (for lacquered trays) or LINtop Alu HB (for uncoated
trays) films, it offers a hermetic but peel-able seal, further reducing the
number of rejected packs for both retailers and packers. Although specifically
designed to match the CukiLIN trays, the films are
suitable for use with any smooth wall aluminium product.
The tray and film
combination is also suitable for MAP applications and frozen products, further
increasing shelf life and reducing food waste.

of LINPAC Packaging said: “We’ve been asked for an aluminium tray solution by
our customers and have developed the CukiLIN® range
in partnership with Comital providing excellent lightweight trays with films
that are designed to perfectly complement the range, preventing costly seal
breakages and machine jams.
“CukiLIN®
offers retailers and food producers a good quality tray option which is
recyclable, provides a long shelf-life, is ideal for both freezing and use in
hot ovens and is convenient for the consumer to use.”

Comital said: “LINPAC are the obvious choice as a partner because they share
our level of commitment to customers, service and innovation. They could rely
on us to develop a product which would offer real benefits to the packer,
retailer and consumer.”
