Elevate Packaging Releases 100% Certified Film And Off-Gas Value
For coffee retailers looking for a truly sustainable coffee package, Elevate Packaging may have the answer. Elevate Packaging has announced a high-performing and protective package for coffee that is also biodegradable and certified compostable.
In the announcement, the company stated:
"Coffee requires high-performing and protective packaging. Coffee beans are very sensitive to external influences and packaging must block out moisture, UV Rays, and oxygen in order to keep the coffee fresh and tasting its best. Coffee packaging also needs to be airtight, which requires a degassing valve to let out Excess CO 2 after the beans are roasted.
"The current biodegradable or compostable coffee bags require extra work when being disposed of, and yet still do not use certified compostable films. The non-biodegradable (i.e, PolyEthylene) elements must be removed before composting, this means that the valve must be cut out and often parts of the lining must be removed. That’s a lot of work for a less than desirable option!"
