SIG's combibloc RS new composite structure for carton packs
combibloc RS is a new composite structure for carton packs developed by SIG Combibloc (sig.biz) that further improves system stability during processing, while contributing to even better environmental performance. In the long term, this new laminate will become the standard composite structure for all combibloc and combifit formats used to fill liquid dairy products (LD) and non-carbonated soft drinks (NCSD) on SIG Combibloc filling machines.
“For customers, the use of the new combibloc RS structure will mean a further improvement in our system robustness. The fact that less material is required also reduces the overall weight of the package, which in turn has a positive effect on environmental performance. The carbon footprint of each package will be reduced by up to 6% with the use of combibloc RS – compared to the previous structure. And of course, the proven quality and product safety will still be ensured," says Norbert Garitz, head of product management technology at SIG Combibloc.
