Successful compression

Winner of a Gold Award for Environmental Achievement is The Compression Pack, a space-saving packaging format for Dri-Loc® absorbent pads. Made by the Cryovac Food Packaging Div.

Pw 10384 Compress

of Sealed Air Corp., Dri-Loc pads are used by supermarkets and meat and poultry processors to absorb liquid exudate that would otherwise collect in a tray of meat or poultry or fish.

The Compression Pack was developed for Cryovac by Cryovac (www.cryovac.com). As a replacement for corrugated cases, this new pack format is said to reduce solid waste by weight by about 80%. Also, because the absorbent pads are compressed instead of merely held loose in a container, storage and shipping efficiency throughout the supply chain is greatly improved. Cryovac cites a 40% reduction in cube volume.
