Differentiation

Klockner has multiple different packaging trays with many different styles. This gives Klockner a unique flow. The KP Enhance tray has traditional packaging with an artisan look in a range of colours. They also improved the packaging appearance by taking out the pad. In addition to the style they have also included Warm touch for customer appeal in packaging like KP Enhance and KP Evoke.

Waste Reduction

Aside from style Klockner has also adopted ways to reduce waste. In the KP Select packaging style they have increased seal strength in order to reduce waste. They also brought the thickness of the tray down to 40 micron. In the KP Evolve style the seal strength is top notch allowing for longer shelf-life. The packaging of the KP Evolve is shallow and has allowed for improved transport efficiency. On top of all of that the film cover is puncture-resistant allowing for as much protection and freshness possible.

Food Safety

Food safety is very important in the food packaging industry. The more fresh the food the happier the customers. In the KP Ellipse there is the lock seal and peelable option as well as higher seal strength for increased food safety. The KP Elite reduced leakage and has a high barrier lidding film. This allows for maximum food safety and waste reduction in this packaging style.

Sustainability

With sustainability being the core of Klockner packaging they have intertwined it with every style they have. With most of their packaging being fully recyclable they have also included extended shelf life reducing food waste. In the KP Eternal packaging style the weight is lighter with a lower carbon footprint. One difference that you see in the KP Infinity packaging style is the use of less water and energy to manufacture compared to alternatives this packaging is a “green choice”.
