Smaller slider clip meets bacon brand's convenience, sustainability goals

In the crowded bacon aisle, Plumrose Foods found a way to add value to its 24-oz Plumrose Hearty Country Style Thicked-Sliced Bacon through packaging, while also meeting a senior management directive to reduce energy and package material usage.

Increasingly, bacon packages incorporate slider closures, which consumers sometimes have expressed frustration in operating. Plumrose answered that challenge by adding a smaller, yet easy-to-grip slider clip to the package.

The Slider™ Advantage clip, from Zip-Pak, improves ease-of-use for consumers of all ages, and provides an environmental bonus, requiring less material to produce. It also provides resealability, thereby eliminating the need to transfer bacon to a separate container to preserve product freshness.
