Greiner Packaging Continues to Invest in K3 Technology
Greiner Packaging continues to invest in K3 technology – the emerging Southeast-European markets benefit from it.
Nov 14 2011 -- An increasing number of dairies in Slovenia, Croatia and Serbia rely on Greiner Packaging’s K3 technology. Last year, the dairy farm Celje took the decision to create a new packaging for the entire yogurt product range with its multitude of flavors. They opted for K3 cups from Greiner Packaging with a diameter of 75 mm (holding 150 or 200 grams) and 95 mm (holding 250 grams).
Slovenian traditional dairy farm
The dairy farm Celje is a traditional company with more than 5 decades of experience. Approximately 2,000 agricultural businesses from the region around Celje provide the dairy farm with their raw milk. At the dairy farm, more than 50 million liters of milk are processed annually. This rich product assortment is a watchword for high quality. Numerous products excel through the SQ quality symbol ("Slovenian Quality”). In terms of packaging technology, too, the dairy farm Celje demonstrates high quality. As a result, it has opted for the tried-and-true K3 packaging technology used at Greiner Packaging.
K3 is used throughout Europe
K3 is the successful plastics-cardboard combination for cups and tubs developed by Greiner Packaging that convinces through decoration and communication. K3 packaging solutions fulfil the highest demands of modern packaging communication. This technology has proved itself over many years throughout Europe – offering the most popular diameters, round and not-round, as well as multi-packs. Our customers value the possibility of printing the sleeves on both sides – very often, this feature is used for marketing activities.
Sustainable and environmentally friendly
Compared with other packaging materials, K3 packaging achieves a distinctive advantage by way of its excellent CO2 balance. It is eco-friendly and lowers the recycling costs for manufacturers and fillers. Greiner Packaging’s plastics-cardboard combinations also convince from a technical point of view in terms of recycling: Their components can be easily separated from one other with a functional tear-off strip.
