Cold-brew coffee co-packed in aseptic carton

New cold brew coffee line from STEEP 18 uses tall, slim aseptic cartons to preserve the flavor, aroma, and color of its beverage line as well as offer an extended shelf life and consumer convenience.

The combiblocSlimline format chosen by STEEP 18 has a tall, slim profile and is fitted with a combiSwift screw-cap closure.

Some like it hot, but the new trend for coffee fanatics is the cold-brew variety. Therefore, STEEP 18, a Treehouse Foods, Inc. company, is right on trend with its new ready-to-drink Cold Brew Coffee line. Sourced only from the highest-quality, 100% Arabica beans, and then steeped for 18 hours to ensure the most potency and taste, the product comes in Breakfast Blend, Colombian, Donut Blend, Guatemalan, Signature, and Sumatran flavors. To best preserve the coffee’s flavor, aroma, and color, and to provide maximum consumer convenience, STEEP 18 selected a combiblocSlimline 32-oz aseptic carton from SIG Combibloc to package its new product.

“In a combibloc carton, beverages such as STEEP 18’s cold brew coffee are hygienically and securely protected from light and air, and therefore the flavor, aroma, nutrients, and vitamins in the products are retained over an extended period, without refrigeration and with no preservatives,” explains SIG Combibloc. “And, because the carton is lightweight and easy to transport, beverages packaged in carton packs are enormously convenient—at home or on the go.”
