Packaging Solutions
i2r Packaging Solutions has recently launched an exciting new addition to its aluminium container portfolio – the B Series. This expanded range, which is in addition to the existing four D Series and four S Series profiles, features six new designs that provide even greater versatility and sustainability for businesses looking to replace plastic equivalents.
The latest addition builds on i2r’s commitment to constant innovation and investment in tooling to meet evolving market demands. The aluminium smoothwall containers deliver superior functionality while reducing reliance on single use plastics. Their robust design, combined with 100% recyclable aluminium, ensures a sustainable solution that offers exceptional durability and versatility.
The complete portfolio now consists of three distinct series, each designed to meet specific packaging requirements. The new B Series is primarily intended for premium and seasonal products. With capacities ranging from 1112 ml to 1510ml, the containers are ideal for ‘ready to cook’ dishes that include added value elements such as herbs and butter, elevating both presentation and appeal. The D Series features lightweight yet durable containers suitable for a range of applications. Sizes vary from 859 ml to 1737 ml, providing versatile solutions that blend strength with sustainability. Meanwhile, the S Series offers deeper containers, with capacities of up to 1900 ml, ideal for larger items including rolled or stuffed meat joints. These containers are robust, reliable and designed to meet the demands of food preparation and transportation.
The entire aluminium range, made up of 14 containers, is manufactured from lightweight, 100% recyclable material and features a smoothwall rectangular design with a reverse curl G-rim for enhanced safety and ease of handling. The containers are suitable for both seasonal and year round applications. By replacing plastic packaging with this innovative range, businesses can not only reduce their environmental impact but also increase the value and presentation of their offerings.
Commenting on the launch, sales director Tom Cliffe, said: ‘The introduction of the B Series reflects our ongoing commitment to innovation and sustainability. We are proud to offer packaging solutions that not only support businesses in reducing their environmental footprint but also enhance the value and appeal of their products.’
i2r will be exhibiting on stand X78 at Packaging Innovations at Birmingham’s NEC, on 12 to 13 February. Samples of the new B series will be available at the show.
