Faerch Plast modular packaging for airline catering

Wednesday, 06 July, 2016 | Supplied by: CMActive


Faerch Plast has developed a range of modular packaging for airline catering. The series is easy to handle for the cabin crew, can be used in conventional ovens, is attractive and is user-friendly for passengers.

The product line meets the standard dimensions which are required for existing ovens, drawers and service trolleys in the aircraft.  They also meet stringent onboard weight and space restrictions. In addition, the modular packaging ensures a more eco-friendly profile as the multi-use packaging is recyclable in markets where facilities exist.

The packaging series comprises a range of transparent APET (amorphous polyethylene terephthalate) containers for fruit and cold foods and heat-resistant CPET (crystalline polyethylene terephthalate) containers that can be transferred directly from the freezer to the oven. This eliminates the need for aluminium trays, ensuring a more uniform presentation when serving.

The high-clarity APET packs are suitable for cold foods with a temperature resistance of -40 to +70°C, while CPET trays can be used in temperatures from -20 to +220°C and provide many additional benefits for airline caterers. 

Unlike aluminium, meals packed in CPET containers can be inspected by food industry metal detection equipment and offer excellent sealability to eliminate leakage and provide product integrity and safety. They are suitable for freezing and pasteurisation, are not easily dented, retain their shape for improved handling and passenger safety, and provide major impact resistance.

This uniform design allows the CPET containers to be easily denested for more efficient and cost-effective automation of the food manufacturing process.
