FROM THE EDITOR

Why can’t we all just vaccinate and be done with COVID-19 for good?

63.68% of Canadians 12 and older considered fully vaccinated

rying to persuade people to save themselves from themselves is turning out to be much harder than first hoped for in many parts of the world where resistance to COVID-19 vaccination is widely justified an expression of free will and independent thinking. Even here in Canada, where nearly 64 per cent of adult population was reported to be “fully vaccinated” near the end of July, there seems to be a sense of resignation among the country’s political leaders and health authorities that much of our homegrown anti-vax crowd, which could be as much as 20 per cent of the population, may remain unvaccinated indefinitely, despite repeated pleas to reconsider. In the U.S., where vaccinations took off at rocket speed since regulatory approval of four of the most commonly used vaccines in the Western countries, the initial expectations of 70-percentplus vaccination rate by the Fourth of July weekend have given way to increasingly stubborn public scepticism about the vaccines’ efficacy and their long-term effects, despite overwhelming scientific evidence to the contrary. In fact, it’s hard to remember when any new medicines for any illness could boast near 99-percent effectiveness, but you would never know it listening to the hard-core anti-vaxxers revelling in their ignorance and selfishness. It would be comical if it wasn’t so potentially and unnecessarily tragic, with fears of a Fourth Wave of the coronavirus pandemic, driven by the insidious new Delta variant, again dampening hopes for a timely return to some sort of prepandemic normalcy. With the trillions of dollars spent on extra health costs, income support programs and the warp-speed development of anti-COVID vaccines, such a setback would be especially disheartening for the vast majority of Canadians desperate to resume their lives with at least some degree of confidence that the worst is truly behind them. Alas, that’s just going to happen if the vaccination rates stalls at current levels, whereby a stubborn but sizable minority can still provide ample breeding ground for future COVID-19 variants that may in

fact undermine long-term effectiveness of hundreds of millions of vaccine doses already administered across Canada and the U.S, where some vaccination clinics have resorted to US$100 payouts to basically bribe the ‘undecideds’ to do the right thing. While this carrot-based approach may generate a quick lift in the pace of vaccination in some places, it is neither sustainable or particularly fair to the vast majority who dutifully got vaccinated as soon as the opportunity to do so came along, as all good citizens should. While no one wants to see governments introduce harsh and punitive mandates for all eligible people to vaccinate or else, simply ignoring this shortfall will not make it disappear, and at the end of the day governments have a duty to protect the interests of the public at large, even if it comes at the expense of certain constraints to individual liberty. So do workplaces: it is in every company’s interest to have their entire staff fully vaccinate. There is no such thing as too much caution or too much safety in this battle, and making continued employment conditional on vaccination is a fully justifiable no-brainer. So is the long-awaited, but probably inevitable, introduction of the so-called digital vaccine passports, which could be used to prevent non-vaccinated people from attending the large public, social and entertainment events where they could pose a health risk to other attendees. While that may not be an ideal permanent solution, it only seems fair to make it clear that unreasonable refusal to make a little individual effort for the sake of much greater societal good has a price, whatever the excuse. It has taken too long, and cost far too much in human suffering and financial hardships, to get to where we are now in this epic battle against the calamitous COVID-19 virus, and there is simply still too much remaining at stake for failure or wilful negligence to be an option.

Iconic ketchup revives its historic Canadian legacy

Start off the day with real healthy Flourish

As one of the world’s most beloved and ancient breakfast staples, pancakes are in a class of their own when it comes to recipe and ingredient versatility. So it was always just a matter of time before someone came along to develop a plant-based, protein-rich pancake mix to take this breakfast favorite to the next level of healthy nutrition and enjoyment. Founded three years ago by local food entrepreneur Andrew Maida, Toronto-based Flourish Pancakes has enjoyed extraordinary growth in demand and popularity of its signature whey-based, protein-rich pancake mixes—also available in plantbased and gluten-free varieties. To mark its stunning success, the company has recently launched a limited-edition Flourish Birthday Cake pancake mix—dishing out a healthy take on the traditional birthday treat with high protein and fiber content and boasting natural sprinkles made with organic spirulina. Sold exclusively through the company’s online shop and containing no artificial flavors or colors, the low-sugar mix is made with just four healthy ingredients to provide 11 grams of plant powered protein in an easy-tomake, just-add-water recipe. According to Flourish, the product is free from the top eight common allergens, including gluten, eggs, dairy, and tree nuts. Packed in resealable 430-gram stand-up pouches designed by District Ventures Plus, the new Birthday Mix is available in Original and Chocolate Chip flavors, both boasting on-pack NonGMO Project and Certified Vegan certifications. “The Flourish packaging is designed with customers in 6

mind,” says Maida. “It’s easy to use and it showcases important nutritional information about the product while still having a bright and fun look,” says Maida, citing one-year product shelf-life enabled by the high-barrier pouch construction. “The packaging enables us to maintain a consistent look, while being able to change the design graphics to match the flavor of the product inside,” Maia says. “That way it’s easy to know which flavour you’re picking up, while maintaining a consistent brand image.” Says Maia: “We’re thrilled to celebrate Flourish’s third birthday by offering our plant-based community the limited-edition mix. “Each year marks an exciting time for the company as it continues to expand across North America,” Maida adds, “and we’re grateful to include our customers in this milestone.” According to Mada, the company is on a mission to improve healthy eating habits and elevate the breakfast experience by transforming indulgent foods into dishes that fit a healthy lifestyle. To that end, the product’s main ingredient is the bean-based Fava Flour, derived from a nutritious, nitrogen-fixing crop that promotes sustainable farming—making the mix not only good for consumers, but also for the environment. “When Flourish Pancakes was founded in 2018, it was done with the intention of transforming a traditionally indulgent product into a food that fits a healthy lifestyle,” Maida states. “We have not wavered on that commitment, and we are thrilled to now provide an option for consumers who follow a plantbased diet,” Maida concludes. “These mixes taste as delicious as their traditional counterparts.

Hemp foods leader joins industry efforts to grow the market

Winnipeg-based hemp foods producer Manitoba Harvest says it has joined the Protein Industries Canada consortium as part of a larger effort to develop new hemp and pea varieties with increased protein content, differential starch content, and improved texture—thereby increasing the market potential for hemp usage in the growing plant-based protein movement. “As the largest and longest-standing hemp food brand in North America, we are committed to providing our customers with the best hemp products available,” says Manitoba Harvest president Jared Simon, citing the company’s vast expertise in hemp product innovation, product development and formulation. It took a while, but seven years after closing its flagship production facility in Leamington, Ont., condiments giant Kraft Heinz Canada has marked a triumphant return of its iconic Heinz Ketchup north of the Canada-U.S. border with last month’s rollout of its signature tomato ketchup off a brand new manufacturing line at the company’s Mont Royal plant in Montreal. Constructed over the past several months, the new highly automated production line is expected to produce over 100 million pounds of Heinz Ketchup for Canadian consumers in the first two years as production ramps up, according to Kraft Heinz Canada president Bruno Keller. “Heinz Ketchup is the market leader and the favorite of millions of Canadians,” says Keller. “We are pleased to be investing in our people and our plant to return this iconic product back to Canada,” Keller states. “While we already produce more than $2 billion worth of food products here in Canada every year, this is part of our long-term strategy of having even more of it to be produced right here in Canada.” Packaged in one-liter plastic bottles supplied to the Mont Royal plant by Graham Packaging, the Heinz Ketchup produced at Mont Royal will also carry the Aliments du Québec (ADQ) certification, which promotes foods produced by Quebec’s agri-food sector.

Founded in 1998, Manitoba Harvest is a pioneer and global leader in brande, hemp-based foods, with the fastest growing products in the global hemp food market. (see picture) “Developing plant-based protein products with superior taste, functionality and nutrition aligns perfectly with our objectives as a brand,” Simon says, “and we have a history of leadership at the farm level, working directly with growers to improve quality throughout the hemp supply chain.” The development of these new seed varieties, as well as the hemp-pea flour blend, is expected to create new market opportunities within Canada’s plant-based food and ingredients value chain. Between them, NRGene, Farmer’s Business Network, Pulse Genetics and Manitoba Harvest are investing a total of $3.3 million into the project, with Regina-based Protein Industries Canada contributing an additional $1.8 million.

Zero is hero in Coca-Cola’s stunning packaging redesign

Product innovation comes naturally to dominant global beverage brand-owners like Coca-Cola, but even by its own lofty standards, the company’s recent launch of the new Coca-Cola Zero Sugar recipe is a stunning display of creative category disruption rooted in dramatic packaging redesign. First launched as Coke Zero in 2005 and rebranded as Coca-Cola Zero Sugar in 2017, the sugar-free cola beverage has gained a remarkably loyal cult-like following across North America in recent years, but the Atlanta-based company still felt that the brand had not filled its full potential in the market. As the company’s chief executive officer James Quincey was recently quoted, “Despite its enormous success, Coca-Cola Zero Sugar still represents a relatively small percentage.” Scheduled for a national Canada-wide rollout next month, the new Coca-Cola Zero Sugar recipe is already hailed by Coca-Cola for its “even more delicious and refreshing taste,” but it’s really the new product packaging that is sure to get the Canadian consumers talking about the reformulated product. Developed by the London, Englandbased branding services experts Kenyon West, the new packaging forgoes the brand’s traditional red-and-white color labeling scheme for a bolder red-and-black color combination that is more aligned with the darkish color of the product itself. According to Coca-Cola, this simplified packaging celebrates the iconic logo,

beginning with the brand’s original and universally recognized red, with black Spencerian script used to signal the Zero Sugar confident brand message. “Recognizing that tastes and preferences are always evolving, we’re focused on continuous improvement to give fans the best-tasting Coca-Cola they want—with zero sugar or calories—offered in the most iconic packaging and powered by some of our most creative, consumer-centric marketing yet,” says Rafael Prandini, category lead of Coca-Cola, North America, citing “positive” reaction from consumers in extensive taste tests. As Prandini explains, the updated packaging design is anchored by the iconic Coca-Cola logo and red cues, further enhanced with the new ‘Now More Delicious’ product tagline.

All the reformulated CocaCola Zero Sugar products sold in Canada—including 222-ml and 355-ml cans, fridge packs, and 250-ml, 300-ml, 500-ml, 710-ml, one-liter and two-liter bottles—will feature the new streamlined packaging graphics. Says Prandini: “The packaging redesign signifies a key portion of the new CocaCola brand design system under our ‘One Brand’ strategy, which celebrates the iconic brand logo while differentiating some of the design elements to distinguish the new Zero Sugar variety.”

Vibrant new packaging graphics breathe new life into iconic brand

With close to 70 years of history in Canada, the Nesquick chocolate powdered mix is an iconic brand oozing with love and nostalgia at breakfast tables from coast to coast. To keep that unique love affair going for decades to come, the venerable Nestlé brand stalwart has recently teamed up with leading Canadian package design agency Bridgemark, a division of Glenn Davis Group Inc., to update Nesquick’s packaging for the new generation of Canadian kids and adult fans alike—reviving the fond memories of growing up with it.. The comprehensive rebranding project was part of a major revamp of the entire Nesquick

while maintaining elements that are true to Nesquick’s DNA,” Pasut told the Canadian Packaging magazine. “The brand mascot bunny, the vibrant yellow background, the sun rays, and the delicious glass of milk graphics were all re-imagined to inspire nostalgia,” Pasut explains, “while new recipe claims on-pack profile the no-artificials, iron- and vitamin-enriched, and sustainability stories. “These key features ensure today’s parents know they can feel good about sharing Nesquick with a new generation of Nesquick drinkers, as they enjoy the same great flavors with a new recipe.” Adds Pasut: “It was important to communicate to today’s parents, those who have fond memories of growing up with Nesquick but have lost their connection with the brand, through our new packaging. “Those parents have higher expectations of what they’re offering their kids,” Pasut elaborates, “and they want products with cleaner ingredients, sustainable sourcing, recyclability, and a brand purpose they can stand behind. “We’ve introduced a new ‘Wake Up Your Milk’ tagline,” Pasut points out, “and new imagery that features a top-down view of a delicious glass of Nesquick that’s in the making. “These visuals are a nod to the fun act of mixing the product that is nostalgic to parents, and inspires a sense of independence for kids,” he states. “Each flavour’s design features unique ingredient cues such as cocoa, strawberries and vanilla to deliver ‘no artificial colors and flavor’s messaging, and the back of pack profiles Nesquick’s sustainability story and use of 100-percent sustainably sourced cocoa.” Pasut adds that the new also communicates and promotes new recycling initiatives, such as the launch of fully-recyclable1.3- kg Nesquick Heavy User Pack powder canister and the recycling-ready Nesquick Syrup bottles without shrinksleeves. “Nesquick’s newly reformulated look and recipe not only supports delicious feel-good moments,” Pasut says, “but also sustainable ones that help protect the natural environment for future generations. “It was important when re-imagining the Nesquick product line that we stayed true to the great taste Canadians love,” Pasut concludes, “while offering the nutritional value and sustainable sourcing that Canadian families have come to expect from us.”

brand product portfolio of chocolate and flavored syrups and powders with reformulated recipes featuring cleaner ingredients and 100-percent sustainably-sourced cocoa, along with the launch of a brand new Nesquick Vanilla Syrup flavor. Enriched with micronutrients and containing no artificial colors, flavors or sweeteners, the product is aimed at the so-called ‘betweenager’ demographic that Nestlé deftly defines as “That unique in-between age when kids are too old for the little-kid things they grew up with, and too young for everything else.” As Eryn Pasut, marketing director of Nestlé Beverages explains, “The revamped product line-up continues to provide a great-tasting and easy way to enjoy the nutritious benefits of milk and are the perfect offering for families looking to add a little feel-good-fun to their day. “All syrups are proudly prepared-in-Canada and are now available at grocery retailers nationally,” says Pasut, citing exceptionally positive consumer feedback to the new products and packaging. “The new packaging was designed to modernize the look and highlight key product claims,

NOTES & QUOTES

Cincinnati, Ohio-headquartered flexible packaging products manufacturer ProAmpac has officially unveiled its new 35,000-square-foot Collaboration & Innovation Center facility at the company’s campus in Rochester, N.Y. According to ProAmpac, the US$8.8-million facility will serve as the new home base for product development, rapid sample prototyping and evaluation of new packaging, as well as a training hub for customers and employees.

“Our CIC is a one-stop center providing our customers with a resource that helps them address their packaging product development needs, including product design, testing, graphic design and filling,” says chief commercial officer Adam Grose. “I am confident this facility will help greatly reduce the time required to go from concept to commercialization.” In addition to centralizing all of ProAmpac’s testing capabilities under one roof at the on-site Analytical and Physical Packaging Lab, the new facility will also house the LEAD ProAmpac Academy, where ProAmpac offers customers and employees twice-a-year training in extrusion, lamination, printing and other flexible packaging technologies, with focus on sustainability. Saint-Laurent, Que.-based plastic films manufacturer Polykar has formally broken ground on construc-

tion of a new 50,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Edmonton as part of a $40-million investment to create an industry-leading center of excellence for the development and commercialization of flexible and compostable packaging. Located in south Edmonton’s new Discovery Business Park district, the new plant is expected to be operational in the spring of 2022, leading to creation of about 70 new full-time jobs. “We selected Edmonton and Alberta as the ideal location for our second Canadian plant for its dynamism, its openness to the manufacturing sector and, most importantly, because of its highly qualified, skilled and diverse labor force,” says Polykar president and chief executive officer Amir Karim. According to Polykar, the new facility will incorporate a cutting-edge recycling plant to enable the company to support Alberta’s efforts to divert plastic waste from landfills by recycling and repurposing those materials—contributing to the province’s stated goal of creating a circular plastics economy. St. Louis, Mo.-headquartered rig packaging products group TricorBraun has completed the acquisition of Hackensack, N.J.-based SGB Packaging Group, Inc., strengthening the company’s presence in the fast-growing cosmetics, skin care, fragrance, and personal care industries. “Our acquisition of SGB Packaging strengthens our presence in growing industries, while serving customers with new products and expanding our vast global supplier network,” says TricorBraun president and chief executive officer Court Carruthers. “Founder Shoshana Gibli and her team have built an impressive business known for its outstanding customer service, industry expertise and diverse product offerings, and we are excited to welcome them to the TricorBraun family.”

Industrial inkjet printheads manufacturer Xaar has officially opened up its new global headquarters in Cambridgeshire, England, housing the company, finance, human resources, legal and marketing functions, as well as a new R&D laboratory. “Our new offices will provide the best working environment to help us continue drive the global development of industrial inkjet technology use worldwide,” says Xaar’s chief executive officer John Mills.

The submitted version of the Blister Meets Paper packaging—whereby each blister has seven cavities for one tablet per each weekday—impressed the judging panel with its sustainability and functionality attributes. “While eco-friendly and health-conscious customers can already find sustainable packaging solutions for a wide range of products, an environmentally-friendly alternative for push-through packaging for tablets and capsules was not available to date,” says Syntegon’s sustainability project manager Torsten Sauer. “Thanks to the combination of our TPU 1000 form-fill-seal machine for paper packaging and the sealable barrier coating from Huhtamaki, we have succeeded in forming paper with the geometry required for tablets in cavities of three to four millimeters.”

POINT ZERO IMA Dairy & Food USA has introduced the patented set of ZERO Technology process that the company claims will enable CP (consumer packaged goods) manufacturers to transition their existing packaging to the use of

more eco-conscious monomaterials such as PET, PP and PLA. Ideally suited to IMA’s Erca, Hassia, and Intecma brands of form-fill-seal (FFS) machines, ZERO Technology utilizes a patented punch process to facilitate high-quality cutting and pre-cutting of PET, PP and PLA. This allows for easily breaking multipacks into individual units—a notoriously cumbersome process that previously limited the use of eco-friendly, monomaterial packaging materials in many applications. According to IMA, ZERO Technology uses independent sleeves that allow cup design changes without the need to manufacture an entirely new thermoforming mold. The solution can be easily dismantled for hassle-free maintenance, which can significantly extend the mold’s life-span, while maintaining peak performance. Notably, outfitting a formed cup with a PET lid and label creates a completely recyclable package for premium sustainability, while the use of transparent monomaterials makes the product visible to consumers—enhancing on-shelf aesthetics. Other equipment in the ZERO Technology range includes special pre-heating plates, which can be easily dismantled for simple maintenance. Additional material savings can be realized by using special thermoforming molds that allow the for the use of thinner materials. IMA Dairy & Food USA

MAKING SENSE Designed to calculate the remaining service life of energy chains, cables, linear guides and plain bearings during operation, the new i.cee:local sensor from igus optimizes the life of the system, detects faults, and prompts them to be fixed at an early stage, while allows for all required maintenance to be planned in advance. With its multiconnectivity, the i.Cee:local sensor can be integrated via the Internet or without IoT connectivity via the local network, depending on customer requirements. The smart plastics sensors monitor abrasion, measure the pull/push force and provide information about an imminent overload, allowing maintenance managers to receive information about the condition of the system. According to igus, the i.Cee:local has two functions. For one, it is the home of the open source i.Cee software, which according to igus is the brain of smart plastics. For the first installation, the software is first parameterized and optimally adapted to the specific application with the help of the service life algorithms from igus. The second important specification of i.Cee:local is its multi-connectivity, which facilitates seamless integration into the designated network environments to allow for knowledgeable implementation of various Industry 4.0 user case studies. All the date collected and stored on the iCee:local sensor can be accessed either via a display on the system, via a Cloud solution, an IoT dashboard or on the intranet, via the REST API interface or directly via SMS or email.

Plant-based beauty skin-deep

oisturizer, lip balm, sunscreen, body butter … most of us put together a summer vacation shopping list without giving much thought to what happens to the plastic jars and bottles when it’s time to get rid of them. Even fewer of us consider that even when plastic items are still in use, they release tiny microplastic particles that end up in nature, animals, and human bodies. It’s no secret that the beauty industry creates vast amounts of plastic waste. In the U.S. alone, almost 8 billion plastic units were manufactured just for the beauty and personal care industry in 2018. As environmental consciousness has increased, the pressure is on brands to find ways of decreasing packaging and developing more environmentally-friendly options. However, the journey towards sustainable packaging is not without its challenges—ranging from difficulties with some materials to the limitations of recycling opportunities. “Sustainable is not enough, and recyclable is not enough either,” says Suvi Haimi, co-founder and chief

executive officer of Sulapac , a plantbased padkaging innovator based in Helsinki, Finland. “Some of the several sustainable packaging options simply compromise too much,” Haimi says. “For instance, cardboard may be incompatible with the product and will not necessarily protect it from moisture or oxidizing. “Furthermore, sustainable alternatives can sometimes fall behind on aesthetics and not meet the high standards of premium and luxury brands,” Haimi adds. “Trailblazers in beauty demand more—they want sustainable, beautiful and functional packaging.” Eco-conscious brands focusing on

natural and clean beauty were among the first to turn to more sustainable packaging solutions, which also becamebecome a key way for independent, emerging luxury brands to make a statement about their mission and values. Now, the trend is expanding to both mainstream and luxury brands. Founded in 2019 by husbandand-wife team Nichola and Paul Vickers, U.K.-based consmetics brand Innerbark set out to offer consumers an informed choice of sustainable beauty products, most recently with the launch of the brand’s affordable luxury body and skin-care line earlier this year. “Our mission is to replace conven-

tional plastics completely, and the partnership with Sulapac made it possible for us,” says Innerbark cofounder and chief executive officer Nichola Vickers. “The beauty of being a small company means that we have been able to utilize the latest packaging innovation fast without the constraints a large company may have.” As Vickers relates, says Nichola Vickers, the brand chose the industrially compostable Sulapac Nordic Collection, supplied by Quadpack, and compostable labels to ensure biodegradation of their jars. Sulapac’s award-winning packaging material is made from FSC-certified wood chips from industrial waste streams and plantbased materials, offering an alternative to fossil-fuel based plastics. “The change is inevitable,” Haimi states. “People trust brands and companies to take action towards a more sustainable future, and to and do so without compromising on quality. “For the beauty industry, this means that all brands, from mainstream to luxury, need to find sustainable solutions for both packages and what is inside them.”

Super Nova launches new sustainability solutions

ith leading global CPG brands accelerating their efforts to incorporate more PCR (post-consumer recycled) content into their product packaging, Calgary-headquartered NOVA Chemicals is taking big steps to help them along on that virtuous journey. Earlier this spring, the company has introduced its first three grades of 100-percent post-consumer polyethylene resins to suit an extensive range of flexible packaging applications: • Collected from distribution centers across North America, the natural rLLDPE/LDPE (linear low/low density polyethylene) PCR is well-suited for collation shrink, stretchwrap and e-commerce applications, according to Nova. • Natural rLLDPE/LDPE is a recycled agricultural film said to be ideal for reuse in agricultural films, heavy-duty shipping sacks, collation shrink, and for e-commerce applications. • Manufactured from closed-loop agricultural 16 CANADIANPACKAGING · July/August 2021

and irrigation film recyclate, the white rLLDPE PCR (see above) is primarily intended for use in agricultural film, heavy-duty shipping sacks, collation shrink, trash bags and liners, and e-commerce applications. According to Nova Chemicals vice-president of polyethylene marketing Greg DeKunder, the company’s new product offerings are designed to help film producers, converters and brandowners incorporate more PCR into packaging applications without sacrificing performance.

“We have a dedicated team with extensive applications and additive expertise helping customers accelerate their applications development work,” DeKunder explains. “Our goal is for NOVA Chemicals to be a onestop resource, providing the products and technical resources companies need to achieve their sustainability goals.” With many of the world’s leading consumer brands having pledged to increase the amount of PCR content in plastic packaging to an average of 25 per cent by 2025, Nova Chemicals circular economy market manager Anna Rajkovic says the introduction of these products will help those brands meet their goals. “We’ve made remarkable progress in just the past few months,” Rajkovic states. “We’re continuing to expand our PCR business and collaborate throughout the value chain to help the industry meet its sustainability commitments and advance the plastics Circular Economy model.” CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

Paper bottles going mainstream

eading Finnish forest products group Stora Enso and packaging technology company Pulpex are joining forces to commercialize the production of eco-friendly paper bottles and containers made from wood fiber pulp to offer beverage customers an eco-friendly alternative to PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastics and glass. According to the joint development agreement between Stora Enso and Pulpex, a sustainable packaging technology company established by global distilled spirits and beer conglomerate Diageo and venture management company Pilot Lite, the exclusive partnership leverages Stora Enso’s formed fiber technologies and ability to convert end-products at an industrial scale. Produced with sustainably sourced formed fiber pulp—manufactured by pressing various woodbased pulps into a three-dimensional shape in a molding machine—the bottles and containers would enable

a significantly lower carbon footprint compared with glass or PET. The partners say they expect the first high-speed production line for the new fiber bottles to be operational in 2022. “We see great potential in combin-

ing development skills of Pulpex with our industrial capabilities, says Sohrab Kazemahvazi, senior vice-president for formed fiber at Stora Enso. “This cooperation marks an important step in bringing to market a truly sustainable alternative to plastic bottles and containers, while offering end-user qualities that match those of traditional packaging in the beverage market.” Using Stora Enso’s formed fiber material, Pulpex will produce paper bottles for an array of global brands across a variety of market applications, from home-care and personal care products to alcohol- and non-alcohol beverages and liquid foods. All of Stora Enso’s wood fiber pulp comes from verified sustainable verified sources, while customizable Pulpex bottle allows for embossing, labeling and coloured pigments to fit brand needs and easily integrates into any packaging manufacturer’s existing filling infrastructure. “We are delighted to have Stora

Enso involved with Pulpex and are looking forward to the tangible benefits of such a formidable collaboration that will undoubtedly help us over the coming months as we seek to make our new, high-speed production lines available to all our partners,” says Scott Winston, director of Pulpex Limited. According to Winston, leading consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies including Diageo, PepsiCo, Unilever, GSK Consumer Healthcare and Castrol, have joined the Pulpex global partner consortium with the intent of incorporating Pulpex technology into their brand packaging—collectively aiming to produce about 750 million paper bottles per year. Whereas only 30 to 40 per cent of all plastic bottles are currently collected for recycling across the European Union and the U.S., the recycling rate for cardboard recycling is estimated at about 80 per cent, just ahead of class and aluminum (75 to 80 per cent), according to Pulpex.

t may not be the proverbial fountain of youth, but for Nicholas Reichenbach, the glacial spring located on his family’s property in Ontario’s South Bruce country near Lake Huron is nothing less than “The eight natural wonder of the world,” as he puts it. While Reichenbach may be just a little bit biased, of course, the life-long serial entrepreneur has many good reasons to feel elated about making the most of his exclusive personal access to one-of-a-kind natural spring water continuously replenished inside the limestone aquifer underneath the earth’s surface, having trickled there from rainfalls above over an estimated 10,000 years. Containing unusually elevated levels of natural electrolytes and minerals such as such as calcium carbonate, magnesium, potassium and zinc, the naturally alkaline water harvested at the CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

Flow acquired property has allowed the founder of Toronto-headquartered Flow Beverage Corp. to become something of a poster child for sustainable harvesting and packaging of the world’s most precious natural resource. Processed and packaged at Flow’s fiveyear-old production site a short drive north of Toronto in Aurora, Ont., the company’s flagship FLOW brand has expanded to become the fastest-growing premium water brand in North America over the last couple of years—bolstered by the consumers’ warm embrace of the brand’s sustainable Tetra Pak paperboard beverage packaging made almost exclusively from renewable and recyclable sources like wood fibers (cartons) and sugar cane (bio-based plastic caps). Combined with intensive new product development that has resulted in the launch of innovative new flavored and functional water-based beverages under the Flow brand banner, the Flow Alkaline Spring Water brand’s success has not only enabled the company to secure sufficient private investment to proceed with the purchase of a second artisanal spring near Verona, Va., in 2019, as well as start up a nearby bottling plant and vastly expand its original manufacturing operation in Aurora. Today spread out over 110,000 feet of production space across two side-by-side facilities equipped with state-of-the-art filtration, processing and packaging equipment, the highly automated Aurora operation employs 65 production staff on a seven-days-a-week schedule to produce Tetra Pak founder Nick Reichenbach striking a happy pose alongside a Tetra Helix product transfer conveyor millions of packs of Flow Alkaline carrying filled Tetra Prisma beverage cartons from the filling machines towards the Aurora plant’s case-packing and Spring Water, Flow Collagen-infused palletizing stations downstream.

the company’s commitment to exclusive use of Tetra Pak Prisma beverage cartons for all of its 20-plus SKUs (stock-keeping units) certainly helps it stand out from competition in the premium enhanced water segment, which is still dominated by plastic containers that have attracted massive backlash among a growing number of North American consumers in recent years. “Producing Flow beverages exclusively in Tetra Pak cartons, a sustainable package in high demand, has allowed Flow to scale itself for the future as a leader in sustainable Tetra Pak packaging going forward,” says Camelia Rotarita, Flow Water’s vice-president of product innovation and co-packing.

Shipped to the Aurora plant daily in stainless-steel tankers, the water harvested from the Bruce County aquifer undergoes rigorous quality control. The product is filled under aseptic conditions and hermetically sealed, as where it moves along conveyors to a capper machine that applies the opening fitment (cap) and then onto secondary packaging, where the finished cartons are placed into a wraparound corrugated case and placed onto pallets for shipment or storage. It’s a fairly similar packaging process on the co-packing side of the Aurora

he donair has been a staple for Atlantic Canadians for 50 years. The origin of the popular fast-food option found in pizzerias throughout Canada’s East Coast is a tale of two brothers travelling across the sea to build a better life for themselves. Shortly after immigrating to Canada from their homeland of Greece in the early 1970s, brothers Peter and John Kamoulakos decided to get into the restaurant business. Peter opened up a pizza shop in Bedford, N.S. where he sold traditional gyros. Finding it wasn’t a big hit with the

local population, Peter created a new recipe based on the traditional lamb gyro using 100-percent beef and different spices, as well as a sweet sauce, to suit the palates of the local population. This is how the donair was born. Peter and John enjoyed great success with their new product and decided to move into the retail market creating and marketing The Original Mr. Donair brand that they sold across Nova Scotia. Sadly, Peter passed away in the 1990s and Tony’s Meats Ltd. was contracted to produce The Original Mr. Donair products. In 2005, John sold The Original Mr. Donair recipe and brand to Tony’s Meats, which continues to produce the popular CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

brand of products at its production facility in Antigonish, N.S. Started up in 1963, Tony’s Meats has also had its share of ownership changes. The original owner, Tony Van Gestel, sold to his daughter Jenny and her husband Tony Overmars in the 1970s and they maintained ownership until their retirement in 2007, when they sold the company to a group of farmers that wanted to keep providing local employment and opportunities to fellow Nova Scotians. The farmers owned the company until selling it to the Tony’s Meats’ senior management team in 2015. That team is comprised of general manager Dan MacGillivray (25 years with the company); CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

international business development manager Aaron Tingley (21 years with the company); and operations manager Lenita Hanson (nine years). “We went into it with our eyes wide open: those were exciting times to transition the business,” Hanson says, adding that the farmers’ main motivation to buy the company from the Overmars family was to have a place for processing the animals they raised. “None of them were involved in the day-to-day business and didn’t have a background in federally regulated food manufacturing,” she explains. “So with our combined knowledge, experience and passion for working in the meat processing business we felt the

better opportunity for the business to grow was with the three of us at the helm, and I feel like we have grown.” Since taking over the company, the new ownership has invested heavily in optimizing the production and packaging operations at the Antigonish facility. Tony’s Meats has grown its product offerings and volumes significantly in that time. The federally inspected, halal-certified production facility processes fresh and processed pork and beef products under SQF Level 2 certification and HACCP accreditation—producing more than 50 different products shipped across Canada. In a typical year, about 60 per cent of the production is sold to the foodservice industry, with the remaining 40 per cent sold into retail outlets. “Peak production would be in the summertime–barbecue season, higher tourism—so restaurants are busy [normally], and holidays like Christmas and Easter,” Hanson notes. “It’s a little slower in first couple of months while people are hibernating, but it’s generally pretty steady through the year,” Hanson says. As Hanson relates, the 38,000-squarefoot facility in Antigonish employs 64 people and operates year-round— producing beef and pork products under the Mr. Donair and Tony’s Meats brands. “The Tony’s Meats brand was developed first in the ’80s—bacon, breakfast sausage, hams, kolbasa … those are primarily found in Atlantic Canada,” Hanson says. “The Mr. Donair brand was really expanded in 2015. Aaron and his team have worked hard at expanding that, and its national distribution started soon after in 2016. “It just keeps growing,” Hanson extols. “We’re experiencing double-digit growth.” The opportunity to acquire the company came at the perfect time, as Tony’s Meats had been forced to close the abattoir portion of its operations a couple of years earlier. “In 2013, when we were forced to close the abattoir portion of our business, we were on the hook to lose 40 per cent of our revenue, so to gain that back we really focused on product development,” explains Tingley. “We pretty much gained all that revenue back through the Mr. Donair brand and our co-packing business.” “Co-packing has been an area of focus for us,” Hanson states. “It goes hand-in-hand with our halal segment, where we have a lot of business. “We have a unique ability to service that market.” The co-packing portion of the company’s business was made possible when it invested in a brand-new Reiser Var iovac Optimus thermoform packaging machine that was installed in July/August 2021 · CANADIANPACKAGING 29

spring of 2019. Upon purchasing the thermoformer, company management was enabled to accommodate all the sizes of packaging that their co-packing customers were looking for—particularly their halal customers, which was of great importance for expanding this part of their business. “We were running into scheduling issues and capacity issues, but now we’ve doubled our capacity and separated the machines into two rooms: halal and nonhalal. “Since adding the new machine, we’ve added at least 10 SKUs (stock-keeping units) on the halal side,” Hanson says.

The Variovac Optimus system provides high-quality sealing, vacuum, MAP (modified atmosphere packaging), skin, steam and shrink packaging capabilities with an output of up to 13 cycles per minute, using semi-rigid films up to 500 μ that are formed into perfect trays with the machine’s proprietary Variovac

The team at Tony’s Meats was already very familiar with the equipment, having had already employed another Variovac unit in its packaging department, which was purchased in 2007. “We now have a twin to it,” Hanson says. “The 2007 machine has the same web width, the same advance. “It’s basically the same machine, but the 2019 model has more capabilities, like on-machine date coding, gas flush capabilities, a different knife system, and 32 CANADIANPACKAGING · July/August 2021

requires less ongoing maintenance costs.” Hanson says having the 2007 and 2019 Variovac models allows the staff to carry a lot of key common spare parts on the maintenance side, as well as the same films—helping the company manage its inventory more efficiently. “That was a big motivation for us to purchase the new machine,” Hanson says, adding that having already enjoyed a really positive experience with the 2007 model was a major factor in the new investment. “We’re getting a lot of good life out of it,” she states. “There’s not a lot of downtime from machine issues, so there’s

reliability there. “And of course, the price point comes into everything,” Hanson adds. “There was very good value in the machine.” Tony’s Meats packaging department isn’t the only part of the plant to benefit from Reiser’s technologies. The company also worked with Reiser to optimize its processing capabilities— investing in a Fomaco FGM26 M2 injector in 2015 for its processed products to replace their previous unit they had for more than 20 years. Hanson says her company looked at other pieces of equipment, but decided to go with Reiser because of the service and value the company provides. “It’s a common theme with a lot of the purchases that we’ve made with Randy and his team,” Hanson says. “They’ve been great to work with, very responsive. “They work quickly to make sure we’re back up and running,” she relates, “and they have a strong inventory of parts. “We really haven’t found ourselves in a pickle with any of the pieces of equipment,” Hanson notes, “and I think that’s really important. “We have an appreciation for the service and wide variety of equipment that Reiser provides.” The Fomaco FGM M2 injector is used CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

to inject brine into meat muscle to provide enhanced flavor and moisture enhancement, as well as improved yield. According to Reiser, the machine is designed to enable customers to handle all meat cuts, both bone-in and boneless, and at the same time meet the demand for low and high injection levels. The unit offers a proprietary needle bridge system to perform 20 to 90 strokes per minute with 26 needles—single, double or quadro—whereby the M2 needle bridge valves are activated individually. By injecting the brine only when the needles are embedded in the product, the system considerably reduces the quantity of return brine or marinade.

Toronto Beer (for Tankhouse Ale, 2004-2008), and being named as Canadian Brewery of the Year at the annual Canadian Brewing Awards competition in 2007, 2008 and 2009. Scaling up its operations with a 2006 move to a larger industrial facility in Toronto’s east end suburb of Scarborough allowed Mill Street to significantly expands its product portfolio to comprise 14 different brands of bottled and canned beer—all of them available at the original Distillery District brewpub that has itself grown into a major tourist attraction for Toronto visitors. The company’s stellar rise into the elite ranks of Ontario’s fast-growing craft beer business eventually enticed Canadian beer giant Labatt Breweries Limited, nowadays part of the global brewing conglomerate AnheuserBusch Inbev, which orchestrated a multimillion-dollar buyout of Mill Street operations, along with a pledge to invest $10 million in various capital investment to take organic beer producer to the next level of growth. To say that Mill Street’s new owners delivered on its promise would be a glaring understatement. Today, Mill Street Brewing operates a highly automated, state-of-the-art brewing facility in North Toronto, started up in 2016, whose earnest commitment to the company’s founding principles and excellence in organic beer production is taking the Canadian beer industry by storm. Located on Bermondsey Road in the city’s suburb of North York, the 140,000-square-foot facility employs over 150 people across production, sales and marketing, administrative and logistics positions, all housed within four large bays compr ising both manufacturing and raw/finished goods storage 38 CANADIANPACKAGING · July/August 2021

speaks for itself, but one of the main reasons that they purchase their filler form us was the reliability of Krones equipment and the local service availability of our service team, which is literally ‘just around the corner’ in Mississauga.” Another one of Mill Street’s important ‘around the corner’ equipment suppliers is Descon Integrated Conveyor Solutions of Newmarket, Ont. A well-established provider of packaging solutions to the food and beverage industries, Descon supplied the Mill Street plant with two highvolume, custom-designed pasteurizing systems—one for the bottling line and the other for the canning line.

“The primary purpose of our machines is to pasteurize the beverages after they have been filled,” says Descon’s applications engineer Christopher Todorow. “Pasteurization is a vitally important heat treatment process applied to packaged product to eliminate pathogens and extend the shelf-life of the product,” Todorow explains. “The machines use water to deliver the required heat to the product from overhead spray nozzles that are fed by temperature-controlled tanks below,” he says, adding both machines have performed superbly since being commissioned in December of 2015.

“The brewery used an existing steam boiler as heat source for machines, whereby the steam piping from the boiler is fed to shell and tube heat exchangers provided with our machines. “These heat exchangers regulate and control water temperature during the pasteurization process. “Each machine has its own shell and tube heat exchanger,” says Todorow, adding both machines were started up for full production within a month of being installed at the plant. Over on the plant’s glass bottling line,

Descon’s model SDP 1070 single-deck container pasteurizer provides exceptionally gentle handling and smooth product flow for up to 450 355ml glass bottles per minute, while Descon’s model SDP 848 single-deck pasteurizer does the same for up to 300 Tallboy-style aluminum containers per minute on the canning line. As Todorow relates, both machines offer multiple performance benefits of all stainless-steel 304 hygienic design and fabrication; non-clogging stainless-steel spray nozzles; continuous data recording/

monitoring with integrated HMI (human-machine interface) touchscreen terminal; closed-loop PID temperature control; and integrated dynamic transfer conveyors, also manufactured and installed by Descon. According to Todorow, the clean machine design reduces the likelihood of container contamination to maintain optimal product quality, while regenerative heat load helps to maximize process efficiency and reduce overall energy consumption. Moreover, the machine’s stepped

infeed rail design helps to ensure fully populated main belt—further contributing to the operation’s OEE (overall equipment effectiveness) performance. “Mill Street was a fantastic client to work with,” Todorow states. “Aside from the space limitations, the installation was fairly staightforward,” Todorow adds. “The most important thing for us is that Mill Street was very pleased with the installation and equipment performance.” Not surprisingly, the plant’s end-of-line packaging area also boasts some of the most advanced and cutting-edge secondary packaging machinery around— most notably the fully-integrated DuoDozen 1210 Combo casepacking system manufactured by WestRock Company, which combines a high-performance cartoner, rotator divider and the tray-packer into one fully-enclosed, seamless and high-speed system processing all of the different multipack formats that Mill Street Brewery ships to its retail customers across Canada. Capable of case-packing up to 600 containers per minute, according to WestRock, the efficient high-perfor mance machine offers superior flexibility for secondary multipacks and tertiary trays, while eliminating machine-to-machine hand-offs and re-metering. “This flexible, efficient beverage packaging machine is the perfect solution to handle all elements of secondary container wrapping, grouping and tray-packing,” according to WestRock. Controlled via operator-friendly IndraControl V model HMI (human-machine interface) from German automation specialists Bosch Rexroth, the DuoDozen 1210 Combo machine is a true marvel of top-class design engineering, with virtually limitless flexibility to pack most popular multipack case formats—including ArtPak (full-end panel carton), DuoDozen (mid-flap carton) Econodozen, DuoWing and Fridgemaster—as well as 24-count corrugated trays. For Mill Street’s Jacobs and Kinder, the combination of stateof-the-art machinery and inspired new packaging have clearly delivered far more than the sum of their parts—resulting in a highly successful new product rollout for the new certified organic product portfolio over the summer months, while generating exceptionally July/August 2021 · CANADIANPACKAGING 49

positive feedback amongst Canadian consumers. “For us, how the beer is made makes all the difference,” states Jacobs, citing “overwhelminly positive” response to the new flavors and packaging from the brand’s exceptionally loyal fan base. “Generally, certified organic beer is more difficult, complicated and time-consuming to brew, but it’s worth the effort because organic beer is pure, great-tasting, and made without preservatives or chemicals.

“And it is that pursuit of a better beer that led us to a new, modern and cohesive visual identity for our brand,” says Jacobs. “And while the new branding is contemporary and eye-catching,” Jacobs concludes, “we were also very purposeful in making it showcase the key elements of organic practices, such as the honestly imperfect grains and the rich soil of the farms from which we source our ingredients, alongside the gold accents that indicate a clearly better beer.”

The movers enable jerk-free and contact-free motion in two dimensions at up to 4 m/s with 2 g acceleration and 50 μm positioning repeatability— completing movements without any noise or abrasion. The planar motor system is highly scalable to suit individual machine and plant requirements, according to Beckhoff. Due to the maximum flexibility in mover positioning and very high motion dynamics, it is possible, for example, to divide product flows very simply and individually, so that previously necessary robots or inflexible mechanical devices can be efficiently replaced. The contact-free mover travel also eliminates wear, emissions and carryover contamination from products being transported. The basis of the XPlanar system is the planar tiles, which measure 240-mm x 240-mm and can be arranged in any desired geometries that are precisely adapted to the application at hand. The tiles contain all power electronics and support Gigabit communication via EtherCAT G. A freely selectable number of planar movers float above them, made possible by integrated permanent magnets. The movers can be used not only horizontally, but also vertically and even upside down, offering a choice of four different planar mover types. Hailed by the company a real as game-changer for the widest range of possible automation applications acorss a multitude of industries, the , XPlanar is optimal for use as a highly flexible transport system in general machine building—especially to automate packaging, assembly, sorting and order picking processes—making it particularly well-suited to many industrial sectors, including food, pharmaceuticals and laboratory automation applications.

FOOD SAFETY

Strict Measures Mindful purchasing of product inspection equipment for increased productivity on production lines By Davor Djukic

anaging successful packaged food production lines often requires manufacturers to be able to operate within tight financial margins. For this purpose, Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) has become a widely accepted and well-established metric in the industry. TCO, focusing on all costs directly related to the piece of equipment itself, TCO takes into consideration the purchase price of a piece of equipment and the operational costs it incurs over time. As such, it is often used in procurement analysis when preparing business cases to secure additional capital expenditure to update food production lines. However, packaged foods manufacturers are increasingly considering another metric to measure the overall productivity and effectiveness of their production lines: Total Delivered Cost (TDC). In simple terms, TDC looks into the total cost of manufacturing and delivering a product.

“A critical factor of successful and accurate metal detection on production lines is sensitivity.” This includes the sum of TCO (all costs directly related to the piece of equipment) and all operational costs, such as the physical product, packaging, labour for production and quality checks, waste product, waste packaging and transport. As TDC takes into account operational costs, the metric can easily be affected by common issues on production lines, such as product rejects, having to change product set-ups manually, contaminants, and downtime for maintenance purposes. While TDC is a more comprehensive CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

metric for manufacturers to measure their overall productivity, it also means that their production lines need to be running at capacity and smoothly, with minimum hiccups and issues to keep their TDCs in check. There are two main types of product inspection technology—namely X-Ray inspection and metal detection—that can help manufacturers reduce their TDC. This is achieved by initiatives such as reducing unnecessary product waste and enabling the re-working of product and packaging. One of X-Ray inspection’s key performance attributes is its ability to help line operators minimize their FRR (False Reject Rates). In food production, the cost implica-

METTLER TOLEDO’s extensive range of X-Ray inspection systems (above) and metal detectors (below) is designed to help food manufacturers obtain optimal TDC (Total Delivered Cost) performance.

tions of high FRR can be daunting—increasing the overall TDC. Every good product that is rejected inevitably leads to avoidable re-testing and production line re-working costs. For example, a snack manufacturer using an old X-Ray machine, which executed a small set of inspection algorithms, reported that their system was generating at least four false rejects per hour, an equivalent of seven such occurrences for every 10,000 packs. Fortunately, the more current versions of advanced X-Ray inspection software uses larger number of algorithms than older systems, which individually check for product anomalies over a smaller range. This enables the X-Ray system to increase inspection accuracy and to allow for natural package variations without increasing FRR and, ultimately, the TDC. For its part, new-generation metal detection technology is very adept at helping line operators reduce frequent testing. A critical factor of successful and accurate metal detection on production lines is sensitivity: the measure of a metal detector’s ability to identify a specific type and size of contaminant, be it either ferrous, non-ferrous or stainless steel. To ensure the highest levels of food safety are maintained on production lines, food manufacturers need to carry out regular sensitivity checks for potential contaminant types, which can affect the availability of their production line and therefore, their productivity. The latest metal detection equipment incorporating Reduced Test (RT) Mode technology can help reduce the frequency of tests as much as above 80 per cent. The technology also ensures that the system is continuously operating at a higher sensitivity than required to detect contaminants. If you would you like to learn more about TDC and other ways to further reduce it across your production lines, I strongly urge you to download the full e-guide on the subject, titled Reducing Total Delivered Cost: A Guide for Packaged Food Manufacturers. Available online (www.mt.com/pi-tdc), this highly timely and topical document provides invaluable real-life examples of manufacturers using their equipment to achieve optimal TDC results.

Needless to say, 355-ml cans to their fondue cheese is definitely a staple in this product portfolios. lady’s fridge. The trouble is, squeezing a portion out of the foil pouch and trying to reseal it for another day is a frustratingly tasking effort. Not only do you need to keep the box or the foil pouch where it will not slip right through the fridge rack, plus you also to keep the pouch upright as to not spill the wine-based liquid inside. So when I saw FROMALP Fondue Gourmet by Mopro Luzern AG at my local Sobeys store, I was elated. Not only does this pouch stand on its own, it also contains a serving for two people. The top of the pouch simply tears off open, and it’s easily folded to hold the remainder in the fridge.Yes, I need a little clip, but that is the only flaw requiring improvement—namely a resealable closure that would restrain me from consuming for two.

My fond memories of those delicious creations have led me to a happy discovery that real Italian tuna is nowadays widely available at most larger Canadian grocery stores—you just have to look for it a little harder in case it is stocked within a designated Italian food section you may have bypassed altogether. In any case, discovering the RIO Mare brand of solid light tuna in olive oil has changed my life, with the small one-serving cans outfitted with easy-off pull-tabs to open up a beautifully layered portion of tuna meat that’s good to go as is, or topped with a dab of mayo to recreate that perfect Italian café sandwich. As a craft brewer, and a beer enthusiast that has tried plenty of imported beers prior to embarking on this career path, I think I have the credentials to suggest that the Tallboy-style beers cans have had their day. Indiscriminately used to package just I’ve always wondered who actually uses an about every type and style—be it a 10-perentire can of tomato paste to make one cent ABV (alcohol by volume) stout or a dish. I use a tablespoon to scoop it out of three-percent light beer—the tall 473-ml a can and up store the rest in a small jar and 500-ml cans are starting to cede their that inevitably get pushed to the back of dominance to the smaller 355-ml cans that, the fridge and, ultimately, ends up in the frankly, offer a more mobile and portable thrash after going bad. To that end, the container to have with you outdoors, being made-in-Italy MUTTI brand of tomato less likely to tip over or let the contents get paste offers a clever solution to this waste warm before being finished. For craft problem by packaging the product in a brewers especially, the ability to launch durable squeeze-tube that let me squeeze their brands in 255-ml can in addition to out just the right portion, cap it and store the Tallboys is a testament to their maturthe rest.

iving alone is a continuous learning process that often requires a very strategic way of shopping for supplies. Bulk purchases don’t speak to me unless it’s for something like toothpaste, hair product, or whatever else I hate to run out of, like beer. Pandemic aside, I’m not one to hoard or stockpile anything. Besides, the single life also often means limited space, so keeping it lean and still enjoy culinary escapades are always top of mind. I’d prefer to revert to the Euro-style of living with a mini fridge and only use fresh produce and groceries, but day is still far out into the future. Still, seriously, shopping for one takes practice and, for me, the most attractive products on the market must be of high quality but also have a packaging format that allows me to use and enjoy every last ounce of it.
