Klöckner Pentaplast, a global leader in packaging solutions, has announced the expansion of its kp Infinity® range with new recyclable trays designed to help reduce both food and packaging waste. The trays are made from a mono-material polypropylene (PP) structure, making them fully recyclable in existing PP recycling streams.
The new trays are engineered to extend the shelf life of fresh food products, such as meat, fish, and produce, through advanced barrier properties. This dual focus on recyclability and food preservation aims to address two major environmental challenges: plastic waste and food waste.
According to the company, the kp Infinity® trays are part of a broader commitment to circular economy principles, with all packaging designed to be recyclable or reusable by 2030. The launch follows successful trials with European retailers and food processors.
Klöckner Pentaplast emphasized that the trays maintain the same performance as conventional multi-material trays, ensuring no compromise on product protection or consumer convenience. The company plans to roll out the trays across multiple markets in Europe and North America.
