New opportunities for aseptic bottle
Tetra Evero® Aseptic carton bottle, strawberry milk
Aseptic carton bottle Tetra Evero Aseptic is now available to pack products with oxygen sensitive enrichments thanks to a new barrier material made of high density polyethylene in the package top.
It can now be used for drink categories that are growing in popularity, such as enriched ambient white milk, dairy alternatives, flavoured milk and toddler and baby milk.
The package has been launched following a successful pilot with Italian dairy company Granarolo, for its enriched lactose-free product range Accadi.
Tiziano Manco, marketing director at Granarolo, says, “Consumers today are looking for products that support a healthy lifestyle. This is something that has been reflected by the increased demand for our Accadi brand, which features lactose-free milk with vitamin enrichments. To support this growth, we were looking for a family pack that is easy to handle and has a good environmental profile, so Tetra Evero Aseptic was the perfect choice.”
Introduced in 2011, Tetra Evero Aseptic features flat side panels on an otherwise cylindrical carton body, making it easy to hold, along with an injection moulded plastic top that delivers the pouring quality and convenience of a conventional bottle.
Lars Bengtsson, vice president, carton bottle at Tetra Pak, says, “Our product development activities are focused on helping customers respond to changing consumer demand and take advantage of new business opportunities. The new version of Tetra Evero Aseptic will help dairy producers expand their offering to more dairy drink categories, like vitamin enriched milk or soy milk, using the same packaging and processing machines.”
