ZealaFoam packaging is produced on existing polystyrene equipment and is 100% sustainably sourced, and matches performance in insulation enabling protection for primary produce
About
ZealaFoam has been developed as a drop in technology for polystyrene manufacturers, enabling them to produce 100% plant based packaging which not only offers environmental benefits, but also meets emerging regulatory standards requiring compostable packaging.
Key Benefits
The material has a lower GHG emissions production footprint then polystyrene, is 100% sustainably sourced and offers potential for multiple end of life options. Utilising existing equipment means there is no requirement for costly new moulding machines and mould tools.
Applications
Products requiring excellent insulation and strength properties from their packaging. These include fresh seafood, other primary products such as meat and dairy products and some fresh fruit and vegetables. Other markets in the cool chain include pharmaceutical products.
