s anyone in Canada’s packaging industry knows well, saying that the country’s food industry is of prime importance to the sector’s ongoing viability and relevance is an understatement of the highest order. At the moment, no other sector comes close in terms of economic spinoffs for packaging than modern food product processing and manufacturing— be it measured in employment, production volumes, export opportunities, new product development and research, and general wealth creation throughout the value chain. It’s more than a coincidence that Canada is blessed with having a very sound and well-developed food industry infrastructure that not only keeps our primary domestic needs well looked after, but also possesses an abundance of natural wealth and time-tested production competence that will play an important role for Canada’s emerging role as the world’s food basket. As a nation blessed with the the world’s largest reserves of fresh water and second-largest mass of arable land for growing and raising the essential foodstuffs and staples society needs to maintain and sustain current growth trends and levels, Canada should be the world’s runaway leader in modern food production and global supply-chain excellence. But you will find very few experts willing to assert unequivocally that we’re there. Which is not to say it can’t happen, but it would happen much sooner if Canada had more progressive thinking and forward-looking food companies like the Toronto-headquartered Maple Leaf Foods, the subject of this issue’s cover story. A world-class CPG (consumer packaged goods) manufacturer and brand-owner, this venerable Canadian business institution is doing all the things it has to do to remain firmly on top of Canada’s food chain—including a revitalized focus on con-

COVER STORY

sumer packaging innovation. The problem is that there are not enough Maple Leafs around to create a world-beating national food industry with undisputed industry-leading credentials worldwide. As big and dominant as Maple Leaf Foods is at home, it still ranks as the fifth-largest multinational CPG doing business in Canada: not a poor showing in itself, but not being the king of your own castle is rather indicative of untapped and unrealized potential at the day’s end. Realizing that potential will take nothing less than an urgent upgrade of the existing mindset in how Canadian food producers approach and master the new economy’s complex supply chain challenges, according to a timely new report from The Conference Board of Canada titled Fast and Fresh: A recipe for Canada’s Food Supply Chains. “Canada’s food supply chains are the base of many food issues,” the report proclaims. “The nature of these chains has an impact on Canadian companies’ competitiveness, the kinds of foods that Canadians eat, the prices they pay, and even the environmental footprint of Canada’s food economy. “Food markets cannot be disassociated from their supply chain networks,” the study states. “The markets the food companies serve and their economies of scale and scope are determined by supply chains.” To realize the Canadian food industry’s food potential, according to the Conference Board, Canadian companies must start doing these things: • Use supply chain efficiency metrics for evaluation. • Revaluate the potential for rail transportation of fresh and frozen food products. • Assess the impact of domestic and foreign hinterland infrastructure improvements. • Increase collaboration between importers and exporters. • Measure supply chain efficiency at the macro level. • Educate consumers on the benefits of food supply chain logistic improvements. Sounds like a tasty recipe to us: let’s get cooking!

FAMED WATER BRAND PUTS TIME TO GOOD USE WITH SLEEK NEW BOTTLE DESIGN It often takes some time to perfect on perfection, which is perhaps why it has taken the famed French bottled-water brand Evian more than a decade to redesign its world-renowned evian Natural Spring Water water bottle, also featuring a newly updated logo and product branding graphics. But it was well worth the wait, according to the product’s brand-owner Danone Waters of North America, which launched the new 500ml bottle design (see picture) at major grocery stores across Canada earlier this month, with other bottle sizes set to follow over the next 12 months. Paying homage to its award-winning bottle design of 14 years ago, the updated design features sleeker, cleaner lines and a ‘label-less’ look to emphasize pure and pristine transparency that befits the product’s appeal of “a distinctly pure water as nature intended,” according to the company’s president Eric O’Toole. “Our new bottle allows evian’s honest and natural personality to make a new connection with consumers,”

says O’Toole. “We are very excited.” The new bottle’s front features a simplified, elegant reduction of the previous logo design, with the panorama of mountain images celebrating the water’s source in a corner of the French Alps—a region protected by the farming community to ensure evian water maintains its pure, natural form dating back to its initial discovery in 1789. According to Danone, the bottle’s simple shape and beveled mountain ridges are intended to echo the simplicity and regality of the water’s home, reinforced with the playful carving of the brand name into the base, with a quick summary of the product’s fascinating history revealed on the back of the container. First bottled commercially in 1826, each drop of evian begins as rain or snow high in

NEW SENSATION JOINS SPICY CLUB

Keeping up with evolving trends, tastes and eating habits is part of a day’s work for Canada’s leading spice producer McCormick Canada of London, Ont., and its Club House Limited Edition brand of seasoning blends. Launched in 2008 under the Club House La Grille label, the updated Limited Edition concept derives its recipe inspirations from the company’s own annual McCormick’s Flavour Forecast survey, that is used to predict emerging new popular blend f lavors—with Club House Roasted Cumin and Mint seasoning selected for this summer’s national launch. Packaged in see-through 120-gram plastic bottles topped with tamper-proof plastic overwrap banding, the new spice has a distinctive f lavor, according to the company, a subsidiary of the world’s largest spice producer McCormick & Company, Inc. of Baltimore, Md. “This exciting mix stimulates the spirit of discovery for international cuisine and transforms the dining experience from ordinary to extraordinary,” says McCormick Canada’s product manager Stacey McKellar, adding the kosherapproved seasoning contains no artificial f lavors or colors. As with all Club House One Step seasonings, the container features a unique peel-back label—designed by Toronto-based Novellus Graphic Resource and printed by ASL Print FX of Vaughan, Ont.—filled with easy-to-follow recipes, says McKellar.

the pristine peaks of the French Alps, which then travels through a vast mineral aquifer deep within the mountains until it is bottled directly from the spring in Evian-Les-Bains. According to Danone, this genuinely unique 15-year process is the brand’s secret recipe for evian’s pure natural taste and high mineral and electrolyte content. Says O’Toole: “We wanted to remake the brand so consumers would be proud to once again call it their favorite water. “It’s a sharp new look, and we can’t wait to see it here, there, and everywhere,” says O’Toole, pointing out that the evian brand is widely acknowledged to have virtually first defined Canada’s premium water market back in the early 1980s.

LASSONDE HERALDS ‘END OF THE CAN’ WITH CANTON PACKAGING MAKEOVER

Special products deserve special packaging to match, and for Lassonde Specialities—a division of Canada’s leading fruit and vegetable juicemaker Lassonde Industries Inc. of Rougemont, Que.—the company’s recent switch of its Canton brand of premium-quality fondue bouillons from cans to cartons is a match made in packaging heaven on many levels. Now packaged exclusively in 1,100-ml combiblocStandard paperboard cartons supplied by aseptic packaging specialists SIG Combibloc, Inc. of Chester, Pa., the ready-to-serve Canton Beef/Onion, Original, Oriental Delight, Red Wine and Thai bouillons were long in need of a more contemporary packaging look and presentation, according to Lassonde. “We’ve decided to go for a new, much lighter, more practical and ‘greener’ packaging form that also better preserves the f lavor and quality of our fondue bouillons,” explains Lassonde’s vice-president of communications Stefano Bertolli. “That really is the end of the can for our bouillons. “Packaged in carton packs, the premium fondue bouillons are now optimally protected to retain the product’s high quality for a long time,” Bertolli expands, also citing the consumer-friendly, easy open V-perforations on top of the FSC (Forest Stewardship Council)-certified boxes. “In addition, carton packs are among the most environmentally-friendly packaging solutions available for long-life foods, because they are made from up to 75-per cent wood, which is a renewable resource,” says Bertolli. “As a result, they have a significantly smaller

environmental footprint than all other packaging alternatives for long-life food products.” While the Canton brand has been well-known among Canadian fondue aficionados for over 30 years, the product had only been available in traditional metal cans used by all other competing brands, relates Tim Kirchen, head of marketing and business development at SIG Combibloc North America. “Foods in convenient portion sizes—preferably made from eco-friendly materials derived from renewable resources—are more and more in demand. “Lassonde’s decision to go for the carton pack is quite representative of the packaging trend in North America, which is moving from food metal cans to carton packs.” For Lassonde, the operational f lexibility of the SIG Combibloc aseptic filling technology was also a major factor for the packaging switch. “With these filling machines, we’re able to fill a very wide range of food variants and package them for long shelf-life,” says Bertolli. “There are many more liquids and more viscous products there that can be processed just as safely and gently as products with a high particulate content. And when it comes to volume and decor as well, there’s plenty of scope for Lassonde to offer a more full range of products in SIG Combibloc carton packs in the near future.”

NEW PACKAGING TWIST MOLSON’S CROWNING GLORY

Pouring a cold one out of the can to beat the summer heat even easier for Ontario beer-lovers, thanks to an innovative new packaging twist added by Molson Coors Canada to the 473-ml and 355-ml cans of its bestselling Molson Canadian and Coors Light beer brands this past summer. Developed by the Philadelphia, Pa.-based metal packaging product group Crown Beverage Packaging North America, the new Vented End opening feature was designed to enable a smoother, easier and foam-free pour via a unique dual-aperture opening that makes two holes when lifting the opening tab, rather than just one hole found on the traditional can ends. A distinctive red tab and a button-shape depression mark to the right of the main opening allows consumers to open the can as usual, then turn the red tab aligning it over the button, and then pressing down to activate the second opening. According to Crown, the Vented End enhances the appeal of the package and also helps build brand identity by more closely connecting consumers with their beverage. “Consumers have had an extremely positive reaction to the Vented End and have noted that the additional opening, with its corresponding smoother pour, is both easy and fun,” says Neill Mitchell, vice-president of marketing and strategic Development at Crown Beverage Packaging North America. “At Crown, we know that brands increasingly see the value of leveraging packaging to distinguish

6 • WWW.CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

products, attract consumers and drive sales, and we’ve designed this new technology for Molson Coors to satisfy those needs. “With the vented end, consumers experience a smooth pour, while enjoying the f lavorful and familiar beverage, Mitchell states. “In addition, it can be used alongside other existing technologies, like Crown’s promotional tabs, as well as can shaping, finishing, and printing to attract attention at the point-of-purchase.” Both fun and functional, the Vented End feature required a fair bit of extensive product development work, according to the Molson Coors senior packaging scientist Mike MacDonald. “This latest innovation was developed exclusively with Crown through extensive work and rigorous testing,” MacDonald relates. “The new cans are the result of several years and evolutions of our concepts and prototypes,” says MacDonald, adding that there are currently no other similar vented opening features found on any other canned beer brands in North America.

CONVERTER FLEXING ITS MIGHT WITH MAJOR CAPITAL INVESTMENT

Alpha Poly has recently expanded its Brampton plant to 50,000 square feet to accommodate pending installation of a high-end flexographic press and additional slitting and laminating equipment.

It’s a long to the top in the competitive package converting markets, but having survived early growing pains, Brampton, Ont.-based Alpha Poly Packaging Solutions is ready to step up to the next level—following a recent purchase of the high-end model MIRAFLEX AM 8 f lexographic press from Windmoeller & Hoelscher (W&H) of Lincoln, R.I. To be installed in early 2014, the pending arrival of the state-of-the-art 52-inch press has prompted the family-owned converter to expand its production facility by 20,000 square feet over the past few months, according to general manager Patrick Kerrigan. “This is a pivotal time in the company’s history,” says Kerrigan, adding Alpha Poly is also installing a Nordmeccanica laminator and a Deacro slitter to work alongside the new press to broaden the company’s in-house design, converting and laminating capabilities. “We have already given the company a makeover with a new name, logo and look,” says Kerrigan, “and our investment in the MIRAFLEX press for high-end printing applications will enable us to add real value to our products and services so that we can help coordinate all of our customers’ packaging needs under one roof.” Founded in 1989 by the Kerrigan family, Alpha Poly was a producer of polyethylene (PE) plastic bags, before expanding its capabilities to handle more demanding, high-end process print jobs. Earlier this year, Alpha Poly picked up a Silver Award in the Flexible Packaging category in the 2013 PAC Packaging Competition of PAC-The Packaging Association for exceptional graphic design, structural design and printing of the highly-decorative potato bags produced for the Shelburne, Ont.-based Downey Potato Farms. According to W&H, the MIRAFLEX AM 8 flexographic press can process plastic films, paper, aluminum foils, laminates and other similar substrates at speeds of up to 1,000 feet per minute, with its innovative EASY-SET HD technology enabling quick automatic impression setting of anilox rolls and plate cylinders for exceptionally fast production startup and changeovers, reduced waste, and accurate, repeatable settings. Produced by Alpha Poly, the Downey brand potato bags picked up a Silver Award in Flexible Packaging category of the 2013 PAC Packaging Competition earlier this year.

NOTES & QUOTES

 Toronto-based metal detection systems manufacturer Fortress Technology Inc. has completed the installation of over 300 solar panels on the roof of its central manufacturing and head office facility as part of the company’s concerted efforts to reduce its carbon footprint. Currently covering 90 per cent of the roof of the company’s Grand Marshall Drive plant, the solar panels will generate about 120,000 kWh of electricity per year, according to the company, helping reduce the GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions by an estimated 180,000 pounds annually. “We’ve been impressed with the results of the program so far,” says Fortress Technology president Steve Gidman. “This program is another way we can give back to our community and the environment by producing a clean, renewable energy source,” relates Gidman, adding the project was carried out as part of the Ontario Power Authority’s MicroFIT incentive program designed to promote the use of renewable energy among industrial businesses.  Leading bottled-water producer Nestlé Waters Canada (NWC) has been selected as this year’s recipient of the annual Employer of Distinction award of the Guelph & District Human

ECO-PACK NOW

PROGRESSIVE MOTOR OIL PRODUCER GETTING LOTS OF EXTRA MILEAGE WITH GREENER PACKAGING “Every time you pour oil out of a quart bottle, While the words oil and sustainability may not first seem like a natural pairing to be said in one breath, it’s more than a perfect match for Universal Lubricants, Wichita, Ks.-based manufacturer of the high-performance Eco Ultra line of sustainable motor oils, engine oils and transmission f luids made from recovered used oils and other discarded auto-care products. Since relaunching its Eco-Ultra products in bulk six-gallon EcoPak containers into the installer market about two years ago, the sales of Eco-Ultra products packaged in the innovative bag-in-box format have more than tripled—fueled by growing demand from installers across North America who have eagerly embraced its convenience, costsaving and environmental benefits. “The time was right for this kind of package and the response from installers has been tremendous,” says Gary Shaffer, Universal Lubricants director of installer sales, citing extensive product development efforts by his company in making the package’s liners both leakproof and burst-resistant. Says Shaffer: “Buying in bulk saves installers money and reducing the number of individual bottles keeps more plastic out of the waste stream. “Since EcoPaks are so easy to store, installers can stock their service bays with a wide variety of engine oils and transmission f luids,” Shaffer states, adding the overwhelmingly positive customer response has prompted the company to switch more of its brands to the six-gallon EcoPaks, including Eco Ultra 0W-20, 5W-20, 5W-30 and 10-W30 viscosity grades; the 0W-20, 5W-20 and

5W-30 synthetic motor oils; and the globally-distributed range of transmission f luids widely used by leading car manufacturers like Ford, GM, Toyota, Nissan and Honda. “Having one six-gallon bag of motor oil in a box is far more efficient, cost-effective and ecofriendly than dealing with 24 individual plastic one-quart bottles,” says Eric Unrein, president of Unrein and Company, Inc. in Topeka, Ks. “My mechanics really like it,” says Unrein, whose company owns and operates six Midas Auto Service & Tire franchises in Kansas. “It’s both cleaner and faster to just open the spigot on the box, dispense the oil into a fivequart measuring pitcher and pour it into the engine,” Unrein explains. “We can fit six boxes on the dispensing stand Universal Lubes provided, and store the rest of our EcoPak supply neatly on a shelf,” he says. “Our entire service bay is less cluttered and more organized, and being a very environmentally-conscious operation it is a big deal to us to reduce so much plastic waste,” he adds. “This is the way of the future,” says Unrein, adding that there is practically zero product waste when using the EcoPaks because their bladder bags drain more completely than plastic bottles.

some of it adheres to the inside and you can never get it all out,” Unrein says. “There’s almost always a bottle left with a partial amount that has to be put back on a shelf. “But the six-gallon EcoPak bag collapses as the oil is dispensed,” he says. “You only dispense what you need, so there’s minimal residual or leftover oil that goes to waste.” According to Universal’s Shaffer, the company is currently considering switching even more products to the six-gallon design, including a recently-developed specialty high mileage motor oil for long-distance transport vehicles. “We will always be thinking of our customers’ need for additional products,” says Shaffer. “Most don’t have room for additional tanks, but they also don’t want to carry the quart bottles because they’re so troublesome and wasteful. “So they can get a six-gallon bag-in-the-box EcoPak that fits in a rack or on a shelf. “We’ll keep expanding our EcoPak product line as customer needs dictate,” says Shaffer, while also citing the company’s award-winning consumer packaging that picked up a slew of high-profile industry awards in the past few years. Said to be the very first retail motor oil in the U.S. to be packaged in a sustainable, f lexible stand-up pouch, the Eco Ultra FlexPak (see picture) won the Packaging Award for Innovation at last year’s Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) exhibition in Las Vegas, Nev., along with multiple Achievement Awards from the Flexible Packaging Association (FPA).

PAPER PACKAGING PRODUCERS DOING THEIR BEST FOR THE RECYCLING CAUSE The average recycled content of paper packaging produced by Canadian mills for use in Canada is slowly but surely approaching the 80 per cent milestone threshold, according to a new report from the Paper & Paperboard Environmental Council (PPEC).

FOR MORE INFORMATION CIRCLE 108

While the domestic shipments of containerboard used to make corrugated boxes averaged 81-percent recycled content in 2012, its lightweight cousin, the boxboard carton, averaged 70 per cent recycled content, with kraft paper packaging John Mullinder, averaging 35 per cent. Executive Director, While the over- PPEC. all average of 76.4 per cent remained virtually the same as in 2010, the council’s executive director John Mullinder says the Canadian industry has come a long way since it first began tracking such statistics in 1990. “What we have seen over the years is an increasing mill reliance on recovered paper and board, whether from industrial or residential sources,” say Mullinder. “Most packaging mills in Canada now produce 100-percent recycled content material, with eight sites producing what we call a blend between recycled and virgin fiber, and three mills using only virgin fiber. “Actually, virgin is a bit of a misnomer,” Mullinder points out, “since these mills primarily use wood chips and sawmill residues that are left over from lumber oper-

10 • WWW.CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

ations as their feedstock, rather than fresh trees.” While Mullinder says that PPEC is strongly in favor of the industry’s continued progress in this area, the group is also wary of the multitude of new regulatory or legislative initiatives from provincial, federal and municipal governments to mandate minimum requirements for paper-based packaging in Canada. “We question whether there is in fact a need for recycled content minimums for paper packaging in Canada,” he states. “The overall average is already 76 per cent, which is far higher than any other packaging material has achieved. “With the overwhelming majority of Canada’s packaging mills already at 100-percent recycled content, there is really not much more the industry can do.”

We’ve all seen children asking their parents to buy them something in a grocery store—some politely and others more persistently—or rejecting healthy options mom may like with a resounding “no.” But how much effect does their behavior really have on what goes into the cart? In the portion-pack beverage category, the answer is ‘quite a lot’ according to research conducted by Tetra Pak. Whether it’s a gradeschooler tugging on mom’s skirt or a toddler stretching and pointing from their perch in the grocery cart, kids tend to get what they want when it comes to beverages they’ll be expected to drink, says the research. And the numbers are impressive: Tetra Pak’s interviews with nearly 500 U.S. shoppers show that almost 80 percent of purchases are influenced by kid requests, and a full 55 percent of planned purchases are child requests. When children are along on the shopping trip—as they are about 60 percent of the time—they are more likely not only to express an opinion, but get their way. Only 20 percent of shoppers say their buying decisions have nothing to do with what their children want. In Canada, children have a say in breakfast choices 97 percent of the time and lunch choices 95 percent of the time, according to the 2008 YTV Kids and Tweens Report. Additionally, 67 percent of children make requests when they visit the grocery store with their parents, according to a report published by the Childhood Obesity Foundation of Canada. But savvy brand marketing can also influence moms—who decide what goes in the cart—while still appealing to kids by keeping these points in mind: Differentiate by flavour: After portability and convenience, flavour is the strongest consideration cited by shoppers in the children’s beverage aisle, named by 60 percent of Tetra Pak survey respondents. With flavoured waters for kids moving up

in this category, including coconut water, kids are poised to be accepting of evermore-sophisticated offerings when it comes to taste. Add nutritional benefits: Nutrition is increasing in importance—now ranking just behind flavour in the decisionmaking matrix for children’s beverages with just about half of all moms scanning beverage labels. They tend to be looking for lower-sugar, vitamin-rich drinks. Explore novel shapes: Unusual shapes can help a package stand out in a crowded aisle. For instance, the Tetra Classic Aseptic has a highly unusual tetrahedron shape that has a proven track record in other countries as a magnet for children. Target your age market: What appeals to a toddler is very likely going to turn off a grade school or middle school child, so it is important to consider age when creating package designs. Segment, where possible, to capture maximum market share, or strive for a “sweet spot” with images or graphics that offer the widest appeal. Remember characters are key: Younger children in particular are drawn to packaging that features a character they can identify, as chronicled in a recent Yale research study published in the journal Pediatrics. Of course, movie and television characters appeal, but successful campaigns have been built around internally developed “brand icons” as well, such as Tony the Tiger, the emblem of Kellogg’s® Frosted Flakes. More broadly, exciting graphics and intriguing shapes attract kids’ attention and stimulate their interest. Maximize the billboard effect: Shoppers spend on average 27 seconds making a decision in this aisle, according to our research, and spend a maximum of four seconds looking at any one item on the shelf according to a study published in Canadian Grocer. This makes shelf appeal incredibly important in capturing relatively disengaged consumers. Create packaging that offers a bold, consumer-facing billboard on the shelf. All of these elements—taste, nutrition and inspired packaging and design play into the purchase decision and each can be a powerful motivator for kids. Responsible manufacturers know their packaging can be a force for good to help moms help kids make the healthy choice.

Glass: is an amorphous (non-crystalline) solid material that exhibits a glass transition, which is the reversible transition in amorphous materials (or in amorphous regions within semicrystalline materials) from a hard and relatively brittle state into a molten or rubber-like state. Glasses are typically brittle and can be optically transparent. The most familiar type of glass, used for centuries in windows and drinking vessels, is soda-lime glass, composed of about 75% silica (SiO2) plus sodium oxide (Na2O) from soda ash, lime (CaO), and several minor additives. Often, the term glass is used in a restricted sense to refer to this specific use.

chief ingredients you need to make a great sandwich,” he chuckles, “especially if you use the new Dempster’s Garden Vegetable Bread we launched earlier this year, which actually provides a daily half-serving of vegetables in every two slices. “So if you look at a domestic market of roughly 33 million consumers with three meal occasions per day, there is lots of opportunity for growth in our existing markets for all our existing brands, which is why we have such a strong line-up of new product launches in the works,” he asserts. According to Graham, Maple Leaf is currently undergoing an intensive company “transformation” focusing on unlocking added value through efficiencies and scale by consolidating and integrating the multitude of well-executed large and small business acquisitions of recent years. This capital-intensive buyout spree has resulted in vastly expanding the company’s already impressive product portfolio and asset mix, while also helping the 19,500-employee company reach sales of $4.95 billion last year—ranking it as fifth-largest multinational CPG conglomerate operating in Canada, as well as the largest Canadian-owned. As part of this transformation, Maple Leaf is also committing significant resources to help support its international and export businesses, which already accounts for a significant part of the company’s revenues.

Big Surprise “Most Canadians would be surprised to know that our New York Bakery Co. business in the U.K enjoys an 80-percent share of the Britain’s fresh bagel business, and is a dominant market leader,” Graham relates. “We also have strong export markets in Asia for our premium meat products,” he adds, “while our frozen-bakery business headquartered in Chicago has a strong presence throughout North America. “That said, the Canadian market still account for 75 per cent of our annual sales,” Graham points out. “Therefore we are fully committed to maintaining our focus on our fresh meat business, where we’re already a Number One producer, and the bakery business, where we hold leading market shares in most of the core categories. “Historically, Maple Leaf was built through a series of acquisitions that enabled our company to create a truly national footprint with talented, world-class employees and iconic brands,” Graham acknowledges, “but that in itself is no guarantee of endless success. “While we tend to be a leader in most of the product categories in which we compete, the real key is what we do tomorrow to make those categories, brands and product lines healthier and more vital.” Says Graham: “About three years ago we made a big effort to become a much more valueadded company by creating more value for our consumers and our brands. “This goes beyond just having the highest-quality product out there: it’s also about bringing forth real product innovation by offering more delicious, and at the

same time healthier, more convenient products to grow our brands right across the country catering increasingly to the evolving needs and demographics of our end consumers— whether they purchase our products at retail for home consumption or in restaurants.” — Stephen Graham, In addition to offerChief Marketing Officer, Maple Leaf Foods ing a well-established core of signature Maple Leaf product brands of pork and poultry products ranging from Maple Leaf Prime portions to Maple Leaf Natural Selections deli meats, the company’s meat or protein product portfolio has also been vastly expanded across in recent years with the acquisition of some of Canada’s most prized regional brands. This includes Schneiders and Shopsy’s in Ontario, Mitchell’s in Western Canada, and Larsen and Hygrade in Quebec, along with a stable of popular bread brands and baking products like Tenderflake pastries, POM, Bon Matin and Villagio breads and Olivieri fresh pastas, among many others. Although such a rich brand offering sometimes results in having the company’s brands competing head-to-head in the grocery aisles—with Schneiders Country Naturals deli meats being a direct competitor to Maple Leaf Natural Selections deli meat products, for example—Graham asserts that offer Canadians such a wide range in diversity of high-quality product choices ultimately yields far more benefits than drawbacks for the company’s bottom line, especially in the context of today’s rapidly-changing retail sector dynamics. “The retail landscape in Canada has changed dramatically in the past 10 years, and it will continue to change,” Graham states. “By nature, there is always going to be consolidation in any business: we have seen it in the food business and now we’re seeing it in the retail business, where there is no longer the Dominion, IGA, A&P and other big chain names that were

dominant players not so long ago. “Even the lines between food and traditional drugstore retailers are being blurred, but the key is to respond to these changes by identifying and leveraging the opportunities these changes present, like putting our deli meats into new locations that did not sell food products before. “For a company like ours, which operates its own agribusiness that is integrated right back to the farm fields, there are many opportunities for us,” he asserts. “A lot of it comes from not just looking at what the biggest changes in the marketplace are, but specifically what today’s consumers are looking for and how we can use our market strength and scale to satisfy and hopefully exceed their daily needs and evolving expectations. “That’s why we are focusing on benefiting form the larger economic changes in the marketplace and Canada’s evolving demographics by offering consumers more value-added products with better nutrition, convenience, taste and indulgence characteristics,” says Graham. “Naturally, the way we package our products has a major role to play in how well we succeed with our keen new focus on value-added products.” States Graham: “We need to keep changing fast to keep pace with how fast the consumer

COVER STORY is changing, which is why we’re getting into stuff like portion-packs, resealable packaging, Halal meats and all-natural meat product made without any artificial additives or preservatives, like the Natural Selections range.” Having just opened up a massive new commercial bakery and breadmaking facility in Hamilton, Ont., earlier this year, Maple Leaf is approaching completion of a nearby state-of-the-art prepared meats plant scheduled to come online in the latter part of 2014, Graham relates. Once up and running, Maple Leaf will employ a total of about 1,000 people in total at the two state-of-the-art, greenfield food-processing facilities in the southwestern Ontario city, equipped with advanced, highly-automated, best-of-breed processing and packaging technologies. “This $500-million investment is by far the biggest-ever single capital investment in the history of Canadian food business, period,” says Graham, adding some of those capital expenditures will also be used to upgrade and modernize the company’s existing strategic meatprocessing facilities in Saskatoon, Winnipeg and Brampton, Ont.

Canadian consumers will see at their stores this fall. “This change alone affects the production process at three of our plants, meaning replacing three pieces of line equipment, but we see it as a strategic investment for the future. “Not only do we eliminate all that foam from the wastestream, we are also using a pre-printed one-component package to replace three packaging components—foam tray, overwrap bag and stick-on product labeling— to improve the package’s recyclability, whilst also providing consumer convenience with a zipper design for The Olivieri brand of fresh-made premium pastas is one of a multitude of popular high-quality, Canadian-made food brands acquired by Maple Leaf in recent years.

Going Strong As Graham explains, “This investment is part of our objective is to make sure we have very strong brands, strong innovation, and really strong cost-competitive position in Canada from our infrastructure perspective. “It’s one thing to enjoy a strong position in our core markets when the Canadian dollars was trading at 70 cents U.S. some years ago, but it’s a very different proposition when the currency is trading at par with the U.S. dollar,” he points out. “So this investment is key for us to create a stronger foundation for future growth as we go forward,” he states. For the company’s director of packaging innovation and sustainability Parbinder Cheema, who joined Maple Leaf about two years ago after a tenure as global innovation officer for the famed U.K. confectioneries powerhouse Cadbury, the two new Hamilton facilities and upgrades to existing plants will present a timely opportunity to build on the company’s recent progress in the areas of sustainable packaging, as well as other cutting-edge packaging advances already generating a big buzz in the marketplace. Says Cheema: “Traditionally packaging initiatives would focus on our distribution to stores, but now we’re starting to address how the Canadian consumers are using the packaging and, even more tellingly, how they go about dispose of that packaging.” According to Cheema, “We are going to prevent over 14 million styrofoam trays from going to landfill this year by switching the retail packaging of our Maple Leaf Prime fresh poultry brand to the recyclable PE (polyethylene) plastic bags, which

COVER STORY ment wherever possible, and also a benefit to our company in terms of operational efficiencies,” says Cheema, citing a recent overhaul of the company’s popular Maple Leaf Flakes of Chicken, Flakes of Turkey and Flakes of Ham canned meats packaging as a fitting example of such consumercentric mindset. “Moving away from steel to aluminum cans is helping us reduce our metal consumption by 56 per cent, while making the cans easier to open by attaching new easy-open pull tabs at the same time is another great example of improved packaging, sustainability and consumer convenience,” Cheema points out. “We are always looking for a win-win,” concurs Graham, “and this is a good example of identifying new consumer benefits and matching them up with like-minded improvements in sustainability. “With aluminum being cheaper to produce and ship, enabling good freight savings, as well as being easier for the consumer to carry, store, use and dispose of, so much the better—especially when we’re talking millions of cans.” For all that, Cheema and his team of packaging specialists still have a fair bit of work ahead of them, as Maple Leaf seeks to accelerate the pace of its value-added packaging innovation.

“While it’s always nice to be able to improve a product’s sustainability profile in some way, there is no one single magic silver bullet in this area. It really all depends on the kind of business you’re in.” — Parbinder Cheema, Director, Packaging Innovation and Sustainability

changing, there is a growing demand for this kind of packaging f lexibility, which enables products to adjust to the people’s changing daily eating routines,” Cheema states. Adds Graham: “The Maple Leaf Prime brand portion-packs are a good example of packaging providing a value-added product feature for consumers to make their lives easier. “In the past one would often just cook the whole chicken for the family’s traditional sit-down dinner, but that generally just doesn’t happen as often any more. “Instead, there are a lot more one- or two-person households with people coming and going all the time, so you may have to want two or three pieces one night, just one the next day, and freeze some for later ... whatever the consumer wants.” While Cheema acknowledges that sustainability is becoming a big part of how Maple Leaf approaches packaging design and innovation, he says it’s important not to lose the primary focus on product safety, freshness and convenience in the fiercely competitive and hotly contested marketplace for fresh meat and grain products. “While it’s always favorable to be able to improve a product’s sustainability profile in some way, there is a silver bullet in this area,” Cheema asserts. “It very much depends on the type of business you’re in. “You try to do the best you can in the context of your product portfolio, your business landscape and your supply chain,” he expands. “It’s important to approach the whole issue holistically, making sure that there is a benefit to the consumer, the customer and the environ-

Hard Work

The new Maple Leaf Prime Portions line of fresh chicken products was developed to satisfy the busy modern lifestyles of many Canadian consumers willing to pay a little extra price premium for the convenience of resealable, high-barrier packaging that allows them to consume only as much of the product at a time as they need.

“The resealability provides a key benefit to reducing waste, especially for a premium all-natural product that uses no artificial preservatives or artificial additives to achieve optimal product safety, relying instead on a ‘magical elixir’ of lemon juice, vinegar, sea-salt and vegetable-based ingredients to do the job.” Says Graham: “The Number One obstacle to real sustainability in food is food waste, and with the average Canadian estimated to throw away over 170 kilograms per year in food leftovers, according to Statistics Canada, eliminating food waste has to be a Number One priority if you really want to make a difference. In fact, the cost of food waste in Canada annually is estimated to be about $27-billion. “So the more we can do to enable consumers to get the full usage of our food products and to preserve the food they buy, especially in the ‘fresh food’ context, the better we are doing our job from a

“Our packaging has to work way harder than it does today,” Graham proclaims, “because it’s the best piece of communication, and the most important piece of communication that we have at our disposal when the consumer is standing in the store 10 feet away from the shelf. “That package has to tell consumers exactly what that product is, as well as communicate the numerous benefits and attributes of buying that product,” says Graham, singling out the new resealable thermopacks of the Maple Leaf Natural Selections premium-quality deli meats, which are 100-percent all-natural products with no artificial preservatives or additives to maintain their safe shelf-life. “Our Maple Leaf Naturals Selections packaging has a great resealable feature allowing consumers to take a package, peel it open, and then fully reseal it to keep the remaining pieces fresh for the full shelf-life of the product,” he says. The company’s Maple Leaf Prime brand of fresh whole chickens remains a consistent bestseller among Canadian families concerned about the nutritional value and quality of their poultry products.

COVER STORY packaging perspective.” Graham is similarly bullish and upbeat on the company’s recently-launched resealable Maple Leaf Bacon Portions packs, comprised of two side-by-side thermoformed plastic compartments that along with enhancing the product’s shelf-life also offer significant merchandising benefits by enabling a stand-up shelf presentation of the product—thanks to the package’s semi-rigid structure. The package is a radical departure form the conventional run-of-the-mill, layerboard bacon packaging that only allows for bacon products to lie down f lat in uninspiring layers of plastic-wrapped paperboard sleeves sitting on top of one another, held down by sheer weight of the packs and typically barely showing much of the packaged product beyond the first slice or two. “Our portions packaging on both Prime Chicken and Maple Leaf Bacon are some of the best packaging things we have done in a long time, because it creates a strong visual presence on the shelf, provides ease of portion usage and storage resealability benefits,” Graham enthuses.

idea of paying a little more to enjoy a high-quality premium product they can consume right away, reseal, put back in the fridge and enjoy later,” says Graham, citing the company’s selection as recipient of the country’s highly-coveted Marketer of the Year award from Marketing Magazine as validation of its strengthened focus on product and packaging innovation and enhanced communication with its consumers. “We have gone from zero Facebook friends to well over a million in just a couple of years,” points out Graham, “which says a lot about our marketing commitment to being at the forefront of innovation by always striving to be where our consumers are today and will be in the future. “We are also fortunate to have outstanding people throughout all functions and business units of Maple Leaf who support the efforts of our talented marketing and innovation teams.

Big Draw Graham points out the inherent ‘nothing-to-hide’ honesty of the brand’s packaging presentation and shelf appeal. “You can’t fool Mother Nature and you can’t fool consumers,’ he states. “Consumers really expect transparency about your products and greater ease of use in this day and age, and if you can’t give it them, they’ll be sure to look for it somewhere else. “So you may as well be honest and up-front about your products,” says Graham, adding the company used a similar thought process in the development of recent packaging improvements for the Ready Crisp line of pre-cooked ‘real’ bacon, which can be microwaved in mere seconds to heat the product to its perfect ready-to-eat state. “Actually, the consumers at first really didn’t get that this was actually real bacon that has already been cooked for them, mainly because it was being retailed in the unrefrigerated sections of the store,” he recalls. “So we had to modify our packaging a bit to reinforce the idea that this product was in fact the real deal. “Bacon is all about love,” he chuckles, “and we are now really seeing the way the product connects with consumers.” According to Graham, “A lot of times, successful packaging innovation is all about making the product easier to use, so when you give them a package of product that is ready to go after 10 seconds in a microwave, with the premium quality, taste and indulgence values of one of Canadian’s favorite foods—bacon—you have a winner. “Consumers don’t have a lot of time on their hands these days,” he observes, “so they are very open to the

“People like Parbinder (Cheema) and his skilled staff have added new capabilities and talent to keep taking this company forward through continuous innovation—not just in the product sense but also in the packaging sense, “To win, we need to be innovative in everything we do making sure it is clearly focused on creating greater added value for both our consumers and customers,” Graham sums up. “While we have been fortunate to win numerous ‘Product of the Year’ type awards in recent years by improving things like product quality nutrition, ease-of-use, taste-value and sustainability, we still have much, much more to do,” he concludes. “Canada has unique advantages because of our abundance of fresh water and land to be a leader in creating high-quality food products for Canadians and beyond, at Maple Leaf we take that responsibility seriously.”

hile it may well be that one man’s meat may be another man’s poison, as an old proverb would have us believe, you would have a hard time selling this argument in Alberta, where the beef industry largely enjoys the revered iconic status often reserved for the landlocked province’s natural and man-made charms ranging from majestic Rocky mountains and vast oil sands to well-preserved dinosaur fossils and, until recently, Stanley Cupwinning hockey teams. Which is not to say that Alberta’s beef sector has had an easy ride in recent years—far from it, in fact. Still digesting the negative fallout from the outbreak of Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (aka BSE or “mad cow disease”) about 10 years ago, exacer-

bated by a high-profile E. coli outbreak at a meat packing plant in Brooks last year that prompted the largest beef recall in Canada’s history, the local beef industry has not been exactly overwhelmed with universal love and affection by any stretch. Combined with the general decline in red meat consumption across Canada—resulting in the number of Alberta beef producers dropping from over 32,000 in 1996 to 18,600 in 2011—it would in fact be easy to dismiss Alberta’s beef sector as yet another sunset industry caught up in a terminal freefall. Which would actually be the farthest thing from the truth, as evidenced by the longevity and prosperity of smaller independent beef processors such as Calahoo Meats Ltd. Named after the central Alberta hamlet of Calahoo, where the company operates a provincially–inspected 14,000-square-foot meat-processing facility and a 43,000-square-foot warehouse, the

privately-owned meat-packer has managed to stay clear of scandal and controversy plaguing some of its bigger rivals in recent years by adhering to a strict product safety regimen that covers all aspects of a proactive product traceability and record-keeping from farm to fork, according to the company’s manager of business development Len Smith. “The meat industry has seen many changes in the past decade,” Smith told Canadian Packaging during a recent interview. “Aside from all the new trends and food products in the marketplace, the processing and packaging of the product has really been put under the microscope, which is a good thing, to ensure that only safe products get to the consumer. “For Calahoo Meats, the safe practices and procedures must be part of our daily operations,” says Smith, citing the recent certification of the company’s smaller 5,500-square-foot facility in

Leduc, about 33 kilometers south of Edmonton, as a federally-inspected facility by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). “Working under the federal (CFIA) umbrella and managing staff training, recording of data, additional equipment requirements and maintenance work, daily operations are not as basic as they used to be, and trying to maintain capacities and efficiencies is an ongoing challenge for us and the industry at large,” Smith says. Founded in 1973 by five Berube brothers, Calahoo Meats spent its early years as a tiny, one-room operation looking to fill a market niche by supplying high-quality meats to the hardworking men and 28545 E Conestoga_7.875x10.75.qxt_28545 2013-03-22 3:21 PM Page 1 women toiling at the booming oil fields in the north of the province, Smith relates.

remains the company’s core business with 65-per cent of its output, says Smith, with pork making up the remainder. In addition to operating a successful “steaking program”, offering a broad range of different beef cuts and grades of steak for its foodservice customers, the company’s expanding product range also includes raw beef products such as sausages and burgers; cooked beef products like pepperoni, salami and bologna; and a broad line of pre-cooked hams ranging from pre-sliced pizza toppings to fully-cooked family-sized whole hams and luncheon meats. Moreover, the company has developed some promising new export markets in Japan, as well as increasing its market presence through the neighboring B.C., Smith relates. According to Smith, the company’s status as a “local” producer has benefited its marketing strategy. “Buzzword or not, being a company that offers a high-quality, locally-produced product provides us with a great opportunity to fill some of the product needs within the Alberta marketplace,” explains Smith. “And why not? The whole concept harkens back to our roots, and so we’re just filling a niche that’s out there. “So even though we are a small company, relatively speaking, when compared to the major national brands and foodservice providers, we have a plan to focus on further expansion in Alberta and Western Canada with our local product.” Part of that plan involves growing the company’s co-packing business—currently comprising three private-label customers—as well as boosting the output of the company’s own branded products, Smith explains.

“At the moment, the bulk of our products is mostly distributed through the foodservice sector—restaurants, institutions, work camps, fundraising programs, etc.—but although we have mostly focused on the foodservice sector, things might change,” he says. “We have just started working with some major retailers to develop smaller portion-packs to add to our existing pack formats.” To bring this plan to fruition, the company has recently expanded the output capacity of its Leduc operation with the installation of some new processing and packaging equipment, including a stateof-the-art thermoforming line manufactured by VC999 Packaging Systems, a renowned Swissowned equipment manufacturer supplying a broad range of vacuum chamber machines, thermoform rollstock equipment, tray-sealers, f lowwrappers, labelers and vision inspection systems to the global foods industries for nearly 50 years. As a relatively long-time user of VC999 equipment at its Calahoo facility—including a model RS355 thermoforming machine installed in 2005 and an Xtravac 860A vacuum-packer a year later— Calahoo Meats was happy to turn to the machinebuilder again for the Leduc plant expansion project. “Because the two machines worked so well for us, when it came time to expand our production line in Leduc, we looked towards VC999 to once again help us,” says Smith, relating that the installation included the purchase of a model RS420 thermoforming machine running at 12 cycles per minute, along with a K7 belt chamber machine and a 85.47 shrink tank for a new automated shrink bag line. Says Smith: “We use the RS420 and RS355 machines to package our steaks, hams and sliced meats, and we

couldn’t be happier with the fantastic results we have been getting from our VC999 equipment. “Moreover, we really appreciate the phenomenal service we have been getting from VC999,” says Smith, complimenting VC999 for supplying the high-quality Xtraplast films for the packages. “We have their representatives dropping in from time to time to ensure all of the equipment is working properly to live up to our demanding expectations.” Naturally, this is all music to the ears of Remi Boudot, vice-president of VC999 Canada Ltd. in Saint-Germain-de-Grantham, Que. “One of the key requirements put forth to us by Calahoo Meats was to develop a high-quality package that had all the nice features and superb quality print, and to ensure that the package could also easily accommodate their product requests while providing a quick and easy changeover,” Boudot relates. To achieve that, VC999 designers had set about installing a thermal-transfer printer onto the line, which would quickly add a black printing finish on each processed package, containing a product name, nutrition facts, list of ingredients, and other key variable data in true on-demand fashion. “Technically, Calahoo Meats can switch from one print to another in just a few seconds to adapt to the product they run on the RS420 thermoformer,” says Boudot. Such on-the-f ly f lexibility is critically important to the Leduc operation, where Smith is hoping to beef up its current production schedule from the current one-shift, five-days-a-week operation. “Although we are still in the earliest stages of this expansion, our goal is to eventually operate our processing equipment at full capacity,” says Smith. “We’re not there just yet, but we will be in the near future.” In addition to the VC999 equipment, the Leduc plant also makes extensive use of an Emplex MPS 6000 band-sealer, supplied by the Toronto-based PlexPack

aking hay while the sun shines is sound, time-tested advice for any small business trying to grow to the proverbial next level. And these are sunny days indeed for the super-friendly folks running the Sunf lower Kitchen plant in east-end Toronto—one of a fastgrowing number of Canadian-based producers of the increasingly popular chickpea-based spread called hummus, a core staple of Middle Eastern diet and cuisine for well over a millennia. Although the tasty, zesty and nutritious spread— made from cooked and mashed chickpeas and f lavored with sesame seed-based tahini paste, sea salt and an assortment of tangy herbs and spices—is a relative newcomer to the mainstream North American packaged food marketplace, it is making up for lost time at a rapid pace these days, as evidenced by an estimated US$300-million market for packaged hummus products in the United States in 2010, fueled by years of breakneck double-digit growth. Such heady growth is certainly well-ref lected in the rising fortunes of the aforementioned Sunf lower Kitchen, which was founded back in 1995 literally in the family kitchen of the Toronto residence shared by Israeli-born company founder Eldad Jungreis and his Mexican-born wife and business partner Nurith.

It’s all a far cry from the early home-kitchen days, relates Jungreis, whose love affair with hummus goes back to his childhood days in Israel, where it is widely considered to be one of the country’s signature national dishes—as it is pretty much everywhere else throughout the Middle East region. “If you want to try something different from the norm, the next time you make a sandwich use our hummus as a spread instead of butter, margarine or mayonnaise,” he advises. “You will be surprised at how delicious it can be.” As well as good for you to boot, it must be added. Like all of the company’s products, the six different varieties of the Sunflower Kitchen brand of

hummus—including Spicy, Jerusalem, Mediterranean, Roasted Garlic & Onion, Organic–No Added Oil Hummus, and the originalrecipe Classic Hummus— are all vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, transfat-free, Kosher- and nonGMO (genetically modified organism)-certified products containing no preservatives, artificial f lavors or additives, while providing a high fiber and protein content, along with other key nutrients such as iron, vitamins C and B6, and folate. In addition to its popular eggplant-based babaghanouj dips, the company also produces 14 different varieties of soups packaged in 956-ml glass mason jars, adds Jungreis, made with the same patient love-and-care found in its hummus products. Says Jungreis: “If you want the very best in fresh, prepared food that will make it easy for you to feel good about what you are eating and feeding to your family, Sunf lower Kitchen makes it easy for you. “All of the hummus and pesto dips are available in 227-gram tubs, but we also offer 500gram packs for the more popular Classic, Roasted Garlic and babaghanouj products,” says Jungreis, crediting the unfolding consumer trend to healthier eating for the growing market demand of the all-natural food products made by the smaller, independent companies like Sunf lower Kitchen. “And while it is important for our products to be healthy, it is equally important that they taste good,” he says, emphasizing the pronounced difference between the conventional “snack foods” and “meal compliments” like the hummus and pesto dips and spreads. As the company’s sales steadily increased, prompting four relocations to bigger premises in the past seven years, so had its need for more automated, higher-capacity processing, packaging and quality control equipment, according to Jungreis. “It was our move to automation that ultimately led Sunf lower Kitchen to decide exactly what products to make and distribute into the marketplace,” says Jungreis. “With the ability to do automated fills quickly and easily, we were able to determine exactly what products we could make to fill the market needs.” The bulk of the plant’s hummus production is handled by the linear model PB-1000 filler and lidder from ORICS Industries Inc., which operates by dropping a small plastic tub from above onto the conveying line, filling it with hummus, vacuum sealing it with a layer of plastic film and crowning it with a semi-rigid, ASK US ABOUT pop-top plastic lid THE NEW before moving it out ORICS FFS-30 HORIZONTAL FORM-FILL-SEAL of the system for case packing.

One of three packaging lines at Sunflower Kitchen, the Toronto-based hummus producer utilizes the delicate but powerful linear PB-1000 from ORICS Industries to handle the bulk of the company’s production requirements filling, sealing and lidding tubs of its tasty spreads.

Other key pieces of packaging machinery at the Sunf lower Kitchen plant include: • An ORICS R20 rotary filler, controlled via a Telemecanique Magelis HMI (human-machine interface) manufactured by Schneider Electric, and an ORICS model R30 rotary filler for hot-fill applications; • Two small-character Videojet 1210 coders adding lot code and best-before data to primary product packaging; • One large-character Videojet 8510 coder used to print product codes and other variable data onto the corrugated shipping cartons; • An Aesus eco-wrap labeler featuring a Rockwell Automation Allen-Bradley PanelView Plus 600 PLC (programmable logic controller); • An EBR chiller operated via an SMVector variable speed control from Lenze AC Tech; • A large-capacity pressure cooker and mixer that utilizes Festo pneumatic components for gentle raising and lowering of the lid, an SEW-

Earlier this year, Sunf lower Kitchen made another strategic capital investment with the purchase of an Eagle Pack 240 X-Ray product inspection machine, manufactured by the Tampa, Fla.-based Eagle Product Inspection and distributed in Canada by packaging systems integrator PLAN Automation Inc. of Orangeville, Ont. According to Jungreis, the company’s packaging mix demanded a more comprehensive and all-encompassing quality control solution than the standard metal detection technology could possibly deliver. “The decision to purchase an X-Ray inspection machine rather than a metal detection unit was an easy one for us,” explains Jungreis. “We make soups that are enclosed on top by a metal cap, which would have set it off with every single pass.” According to Eagle Product Inspection, the highperformance Eagle Pack 240 is a system capable of fully inspecting up to 1,400 items per minute to detect metal and all other manner of foreign objects in the packaged product, while also simultaneously checking and verifying the product’s correct weight, size, shapes, etc., and rejecting all nonconforming packages right off the packaging line. “I had been working with Eldad and Sunf lower Kitchen for many years, and he never One of a pair of Videojet Technologies 1210 small character inkjet coders used by Sunflower Kitchen to apply data directly to the side lids (see inset) of its food products.

To this end, PLAN Automation has developed a special comprehensive after-sales service program for its X-Ray customers, which covers: • X-Ray education and demonstration; • detailed analysis of the application; • custom quoting process; • formal product testing and reporting; • evaluation of the final solution with all parties involved, such as management, quality assurance, health and safety, maintenance, etc.; • installation and commissioning; • custom training programs (basic, advance, maintenance, sanitation, etc.)

ometimes in business, as elsewhere in life, success is all about location, location, location. And there is no doubt that Canada’s proximity to the world’s largest economy has benefited the country on multiple occasions by virtue of providing a perfectly-positioned strategic launching pad for later entry into the all-important U.S. market for leading global developers and manufacturers of industrial automation technologies. For many of these companies, getting their feet first into the Canadian marketplace has proven to be a strategic stroke of genius in retrospect, as it has in the case of global power control and distribution technologies powerhouse SEW-Eurodrive GmbH, a German-owned multinational industrial group currently employing over 15,000 people around the world, while earning revenues of $3.26 billion last year. Founded in 1931 as Süddeutsche Elektromotoren Werke (South German Electric Works) in the town of Brushal in Germany’s southwest by Christian Pähr, after his daughter married Ernst Blickle in 1942. After assuming the position of managing director thre years later, under Blickle’s leadership,

the company commenced a steady rise up to industry prominence, fueled by fast-paced development and commercialization of the company’s signature gearmotors, followed by the introduction of frequency inverters and complete drive-based automation systems for a broad range of industrial applications.

Canada, Eh By the early 1970s, the thriving company was ready to test the North American market, which it entered in grand style in 1974 with the opening of its Canadian headquarters in Brampton, Ont., about a 30-minute drive northwest of Toronto. Today, SEW-Eurodrive Company of Canada Ltd. employs approximately 200 people across the country, including the Vancouver branch opened in 1983 and a Montreal facility started up in 1987, according to the subsidiary’s chief operating officer Anthony Peluso. “Although we don’t actually manufacture our products here, we have enjoyed great success right across Canada,” Peluso told Canadian Packaging on a recent visit to the Brampton headquarters. “Along with the 40 full-time technical representatives from coast-to-coast, we maintain a huge inventory of parts at all our facilities, so that we

can assemble any unit to order,” says Peluso, adding SEW-Eurodrive can supply its Canadian customers with fully-assembled geared motors or frequency inverters within three days of receiving an order. While the company’s initial success in Canada helped pave the way for a smooth expansion into the U.S., where it established a satellite manufacturing plant in Lyman, S.C., in 1983, Peluso insists Canada still represents an important market for the company in its own right—particularly in the country’s thriving food-and-beverage industries. “SEW-Eurodrive has long been a market leader in this segment, with a plethora of gearmotors and other products installed globally,” says Peluso, adding that having three Canadian assembly locations enables the company to establish closer and more meaningful relationships with its customers and business partners. “We don’t merely build gearmotors: we build relationships,” states Peluso. “It’s important for us to safeguard that we work with our customers to ensure we build gearmotors that address their specific needs and requests. “We are all about providing top-quality machinery, along with our patented fast-delivery.” Because the company does not really get into customizing its equipment for individual projects,

CANADIAN PACKAGING • JULY/AUGUST 2013

AUTOMATE NOW Peluso explains, it can offer customers the benefits of off-the-shelf parts and equipment that could be made at any of its factories worldwide, making it much easier for technical personnel to provide effective equipment maintenance or repair. “That’s what makes us different,” Peluso asserts. “Even while our competitors might have one big centralized plant, all the segments of SEWEurodrive, which are ultimately a part of a huge company, prefer to conduct themselves as though we are a small company. “As part of our total commitment to customer satisfaction, we also provide an individual, comprehensive worldwide service 24/7, 365-days of the year,” he says, adding that the local staff consists of true, highly-specialized industry experts who each focus on one particular industry segment, citing food-and-beverage, logistics, mining, material handling and water treatment as key enduse markets. “We work closely with consultants and integrators,” notes Peluso. “We keep our customers informed with information on how new products can be utilized within their industry.” At the Brampton, Ont. assembly plant and Canadian headquarters, the basic components of an SEW-Eurodrive gearmotor can be put together and utilized anywhere in the world thanks to its modular style.

Key To Success Acknowledging the company faces great competition from other gearmotor manufacturers, Peluso states that “our reputation is built on us consistently manufacturing, building and servicing gearmotors that work exactly as advertised with a long life.” In fact, Peluso says that the key for any company nowadays is to provide added value to the customer. “We do that by upping the technological value by providing efficient and robust products that provide cost-savings by reducing downtime,” he adds. Of course, savings for a customer need not be directly related to the product’s initial cost, but can also be realized through energy efficiency. Rising energy costs are also promoting many smart equipment manufacturers to seek out partners who can help provide them with energy-efficient products. As a systems supplier and specialist for drive technology, SEW-Eurodrive offers highly energy-efficient and modular systems that provide cost advantages for its entire lifecycle. “Informing our customers on the latest state-of-theart drive solutions helps keep manufacturing competitive in Canada for the long-term,” explains Peluso. One of the more recent products from SEWEurodrive is the Movigear mechatronic drive system that helps maintain the innovative decentralized look the company is known for. Peluso says the Movigear technology used for horizontal material handling equipment “combines a gear unit with a motor and the matching drive electronics all in one product. But it also ensures that the technical and economical advantages of these three drive components are maintained and utilized in an optimal manner.” Peluso also describes the company’s Movipro decentralized drive control as another recent product that SEW-Eurodrive is proud of. “It’s a decentralized drive and positioning control up to 15 kW, suitable for both horizontal and vertical material handling applications, with integrated encoder evaluation, brake control and field bus communication,” explains Peluso. He says that for SEW-Eurodrive—as long as the company continues to manufacture more and more efficient motors, it will continue to make

For us at Sobeys, our path forward lies in identifying where we can create some impact in a cost-effective way by employing a ‘materiality analysis,’ whereby we use a life-cycle inventory database to focus on one particular food products group and apply LCA (life-cycle analysis) tools to identify the top 20 categories and ingredients on which we should focus our carbon-footprint reduction efforts. Naturally, packaging is a big part of that conversation and effort, but because it accounts for about 15 per cent of the carbon footprint for these categories, it is also important to look at the contents of the packaging in question. For all its usefulness, LCA is just one tool in the sustainability journey, but it’s not the only one to hang your hat on because it sill has certain weaknesses, including how it how it addresses biodiversity and ecosystem issues. So when we did primary screening of cumulative weight and then carbon footprint, we followed that up by also looking at things like the secondary-like tropical deforestation, water resources, species protection and or biodiversity, pollution risks, labor and social impacts, animal welfare and other things related to some of our agricultural commodities and animal proteins, including seafood. Five years ago we had no idea where our seafood came from; today we’re tracking our seafood sources from 220 fisheries from around the world, as well as all the farmed seafood and the countries that it comes from. Having this detailed knowledge that we didn’t have before has shifted the game for us. We now have about 150 seafood suppliers involved in this journey with us; we’re currently selling 70 different eco-labeled seafood products; we have trained about 2,000 of our own staff to become knowledgeable about seafood sustainability, including store employees and our buyers, so that they can make informed purchasing decisions. We also implemented a traceable seafood initiative that allows tens of thousands of customers to trace the source of their seafood. We are now going through a similar process with palm oil and pulp-and-paper. We source a lot of products from Asia, where packaging often comes not from sustainable forests, but from rainforests being cut down in Indonesia and elsewhere, so we definitely want to get a handle on that. While there are many tools available for helping us source our products more responsibly, I think that there is a pressing need in Canada for a comprehensive biodiversity and water database. Many companies like ours are collecting a lot of this data, but it’s all being hidden in drawers and on spreadsheets, instead of being developed as a valuable mapping tool. As businesses, it is our responsibility to push all kinds of these tools in order to form a coherent sustainability vision, to encourage further progress, and to leverage our supply chains to improve things in this area. We can’t keep doing this individually as competing companies because there’s just too much heavy lifting. But if we can leverage our combined clout and create a vision for what we need to help accelerate the transition, we can make that progress much more quickly by collaborating to drive true systemic change.

These days, a lot of our sales growth comes from juices, teas and other agriculture-intensive categories, so this is a whole new area where we need to grow in expertise by really digging in and understanding and learning from others how to advance sustainability in this area. In terms of packaging, Coca-Cola believes that between responsible renewable materials and recycling, we can help dampen mostly grim trajectories in terms of our overall carbon demand by designing for recyclability.

There has been some criticism about companies overpackaging or focusing solely making it look great, while putting recyclability and environment off to the side. There is also the matter of product shelf-life versus package weight, which is an emerging and growing new packaging optimization theme that certainly is part of the design and the thinking that goes on at Coke. There are three basic drivers behind our thinking process: • Consumer connection and brand-building. • Resource scarcity. • Environmental impact on overall cost position. For Coca-Cola, refrigeration and packaging are the two largest carbon sources, and with packaging being the biggest single source, this is really the area where we need to excel. With different drives for different materials, we employ many different strategies: from recycled materials to bio-based plastics to helping to drive packaging recovery and lightweighting, with each having its own role to play. While using recycled materials today is not really helping with reducing our cost position, it does help reduce waste and environmental impact. As for bio-based plastics, we can make all the plant-based bottles in the world, but if they are not recovered or recycled, that becomes a whole new sustainability challenge in and of itself.

That said, there is certainly a long way for us to go about clearing up the consumer confusion out there about the PlantBottle, as well as building a supply chain with a world-class infrastructure that has been built on PET technologies for over 60 years. We are trying to do all that in the next three to five years, which presents a tremendous amount of work, so we have been very busy building new capacity. Today, we have 10 plants around the world that can make the PlantBottle resin, which may not sound like much, but it’s a ten-fold increase from three years ago. During that time, we have executed the PlantBottle launch in 24 countries—selling some 14 billion PlantBottle containers to date— with our flagship, US$1-billion Dasani mega-brand leading the way with nine-percent annual growth at a time when many other beverage brands, including our own sparking drinks, have been posting declines. So if there is a question about whether people notice our PlantBottle efforts by picking Dasani over other brands, I think the right answer is ‘Yes.’ We are currently in the process of converting our sparkling Smart Water brand to the PlantBottle, which will hit the stores later this year, which shows the level of our commitment to this packaging. We really believe that growing the demand will help us get the scale to help get the costs to be advantageous to, or at least competitive with, the traditional PET packaging. We are already working on the development of new-generation PlantBottle 2.0, as we refer to it, but we need partners along the way to make it all happen. That’s why we have five partner companies— with different interests and different product lines—joining us in this development. We need people to help us make sure that our life-cycle performance is good, that we are thinking about it the right way: How do you measure all the impacts of growing sugar cane? How do you make sure this is done right, that it’s done well, and that it’s something the company would be proud of? We are often asked whether the PlantBottle supply chain is sustainable, based on the fact that we are shipping sugar cane from Brazil to a factory in India and then shipping the resin all over the place. Naturally, we have done extensive LCA (Life-Cycle Analysis) on that, and found out that the energy required for transporting the PET accounts for two per cent of the footprint. So shipping it from India is not in itself going to break the bank in term of sustainability. There are also criticisms about us using so much land in Brazil in a sense that we are competing directly with the food supply, namely sugar. The answer to that is ‘No,’ of course, because why would we do something that would disrupt the supply of sugar, which is the biggest single commodity that we buy on a global basis? The truth is that there is still much more room for more sugar cane growth without impacting the food supply. We always take care to be very intentional as we go through this to make sure we are not trading off one thing for the other. Ultimately, our focus is to use non-food sources to launch new renewable packaging innovations using cellulosic materials, and only using locally-sourced feedstocks across the board. That’s how we see the future of sustainable packaging for us, and we are happy for all companies out there to join us as partners on this exciting journey.

PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE Unilever’s global sustainability agenda bearing fruit in bottom-line improvements

Len Sauers, P&G

BY JOHN COYNE

aking a sustainable future for a company like Unilever— a company that has been in existence for over 130 years— is a matter of a business benefit and a social purpose. Whenever we talk about packaging stewardship, optimization and production, we are really only talking about one element of the broader sustainability agenda, which we often try to frame in as stark a set of terms as we possibly can. he Beer Store John D. Coyne, Unilever But we do that not because we’re interested in frightening people or having people crawl underneath their covers. We are trying to do that so that we can exploit the need for urgency and the need for rapid action on very critical problems that are being faced around SENTED BY the world—some in Canada—which affects our business around the world. Two years ago, Unilever began a new journey as part of it sustainability view of the world under the banner of the Unilever Sustainable Living Plan. While setting an important set of business objectives for us, this plan 2013 also sets some important social objectives for us that underpin the values of our corporation, with three critical components in mind: : 8am to 5pm • In the next 10 years, helping improve the livelihoods of over one on: 5pm to 7pm billion people on this planet, most of those living in the Third World. • Source 100 per cent of our agricultural raw materials from susKEX Toronto tainable sources. • Cutting the environmental footprint of our business in half. o Congress Centre We have been acknowledged as one of the few companies, in fact, oom the first of our size, to actually undertake an ambitious program of on Rd., Toronto that type. For us, the connectivity here is plain to see. Because sustainability is equal to our vision, it is therefore equal to XT members - $50 our business strategy and, therefore, equal to the actions that undermbers - $75 pin the plan, which comprises dozens of reportable, global measures l admission - $100 about how our business is performing in this space. Operating in over 190 countries around the world enables Unilever members, please contact to touch 2.6 billion consumers every single day, which in turn @pac.ca for your discount code. enriches our understanding of what their particular challenges are on an ongoing basis. In turn, this global reach helps create the sense of urgency you need to get into optimizing your manufacturing facilities and operations, optimizing and reducing your packaging, improving the environmental performance of your overall business, and om communicating to consumers the importance of these initiatives. Although we are only two years into this strategy, there are some common themes emerging from within some of these spaces, with three notable areas of progress. We have applied ourselves vigorously to reducing energy, waste and water consumption in all of our facilities. In Canada, for example, we have reduced waste, water and energy consumption by about 38 per cent throughout all of our manufacturing facilities. Throughout North America, all of our factories

36 • WWW.CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

now are zero waste-to-landfill, with water usage down by just over 20 per cent. Globally, Unilever has saved itself about $400 million to date throughout its supply chain just in this space alone—a massive amount of money that our business can use to promote their brands and to communicate better with the consumers. Sustainable sourcing is not only a fine environmental thing to do, but from a purely business point of view, it also means de-risking your business on a global basis in the global commodities markets fraught with price spikes, shortages, riots, etc., which are very destabilizing not only for the affected nations, but even more so for the businesses that operate in those nations. Therefore, sustainable innovation and collaboration is an outgrowth of the philosophy that enables our laundry detergents, icecream products, and home cleaning products to keep growing at the aforementioned double-digit rates. But ultimately, reducing our environmental impact across our entire value chain is inextricably linked to changing consumer behaviors. It is the responsibility of companies like ours to continue to innovate the packaging and the product, to re-innovate the packaging and the product, and to communicate the benefits of what it is that we are delivering directly to our consumers. These are nontraditional challenges: people who went to marketing schools 10 or 15 years ago weren’t being taught how to communicate with consumers in this way. But although it is hard to change consumer behavior, from a stewardship point of view consumers can and will change, given the opportunity. Consumers are like us—they are not strangers to sustainability, and they do understand the idea that less packaging means less waste. Twenty-five years ago people were not doing anything with their Blue Boxes, but today we can see filled multicolored boxes literally lining up streets to have their contents recycled. That’s because consumers in this country nowadays don’t really think twice about performing what is actually a significant environmental service to their community and their families, and we really need to build on that. Consumers are ready to embrace our messages of sustainability, and it is important for all responsible companies out there with an opportunity to touch the lives of consumers to speak eloquently in the space, as it is equally important to get our governments onboard for that. Everyone has a role to play in this space—from consultants and governments through citizens and consumers and on to businesses and business leaders—and even for those people who may not be experts when it comes to packaging, their input is just as vital insofar as dealing with this complex and multifaceted global planetary set of issues that impact our business on a day-to-day basis.

s the largest consumer products company in the world—selling our 300 brands across 180 countries to some 4.6 billion people using our product on an everyday basis—Procter & Gamble (P&G) is well aware that all of our products inevitably end up somewhere in the environment, be in the air, water, solid waste, etc. So for a company our size and pervasiveness that we are, environmental sustainability is an incredibly important part of our corporate responsibility strategy and, in fact, we can trace our work in the environmental area back to the 1960s. As we started getting into the 2000s, we began to see more and more attention being paid to sustainability, with retailers, NGOs (nongovernmental organizations) and political leaders like Al Gore raising a lot of new questions on the subject. And while we though that we were already doing a lot of good work from the standpoint of responsibility as a company, we thought it was probably good for us to talk about it a little bit more. Because of our size and breadth, along with our large R&D budget and proven ability to innovate, we thought about using sustainability as an opportunity to

build the company’s business by creating products that enable consumers to be sustainable through the use of the products, and then also look at the bottom line through the lens of eco-efficiency. When we surveyed the marketplace between 2005 and 2007, we discovered that there were already a lot of products out there claiming to be ‘green’ or sustainable. But interestingly, not many people seemed to be buying those products, which typically had a very small market share and were largely sold in smaller specialty stores. So while we could have easily come out with similar products claiming to be just as green, we were not sure that these would be products that people would buy. Wanting to make a meaningful impact as we went forward, we had to understand the consumer a little better, so we proceeded to collect some interesting data. What we found was that there was a very small niche of consumers, about 15 per cent, who were really into the environmental movement—to the point that they are willing to accept some sort of trade-off in terms of a higher price or a decrease in the product’s performance in order to make a ‘green’ purchase. We also found a group to the right, about 10 per cent, who will never accept such a trade off, with about half of that number were comprised of the so-

SUSTAINABILITY called ‘nevergreen’ that are actually outright hostile to the environmental movement. Between those two groups lie the huge mainstream of ‘eco-aware’ consumers who want to do the right thing, but will not accept any trade-off in terms of a higher price or decrease in performance levels. So for us at P&G, making a meaningful improvement in this space meant working on developing products for which there are no consumer trade-offs in respect to improved environmental sustainability. The term Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA) may be relatively new to some, but at P&G we have been using it for several decades to help us quantify the environmental impact that products and processes have across their entire life-cycle—from the creation of the raw materials to manufacturing, distribution, use at home and, eventually, the product’s after-life. We typically apply this technique to our products and processes to find where they make the biggest environmental impact, and then target our R&D efforts against those things to be able to make this meaningful environmental improvement. With the energy footprint being a big part of the LCA for our home laundry products—considering that 83 per cent of energy requirements are for the heating of water used for laundry—that was the main driver behind our launch of the Tide Coldwater brand of liquid detergent a few years ago. Granted, you can’t just slap a label on a product and say “use in cold water” because consumers have an expectation of a certain level of performance in the product. So we had to go through a lot of R&D efforts to boost performance of this product in cold water so consumers would not perceive a trade-off in performance. And because this product does not cost more than the parent brand, there is basically no trade-off for the consumer at all. Considering that four per cent of all household energy use here in North America is simply used for the heating of water for laundry, taking that four per cent off the grid and calculating the CO2 reductions associated with that adds up to making a meaningful impact indeed. Naturally, there is a challenge of convincing consumers about the same level of performance in cold water, so we spent several years to drive the consumer understanding of the value of being able to do this—by working with retail partners to provide education at the shelf level; work with the NGOs to provide information through their various avenues; and through television advertising. It’s worth noting that there is nothing in our Tide Coldwater TV commercial that actually mentions anything about the environment or sustainability. Instead, the focus is all about saving money on their next utility bill: that’s the

JULY/AUGUST 2013

kind of message that we found consumers to be most responsive to in terms of causing real habit change. As for operational improvements on the manufacturing level, it is really a no-brainer from the sustainability angle because most of it is largely about cost-savings. For the past five years, P&G has implemented programs that were very specifically focused on the environmental metrics of our clients, and as a result we have had absolute reduction in each of the primary metrics. In terms of carbon dioxide, for example, we are emitting less CO2 today than we did five years ago, even though the company’s business has grown by US$12 billion. Although we do not have a set date, our longterm vision is being able use 100-percent renewable materials one day, and we have set ourselves a goal of 25 per cent by 2020. Working towards that long-term vision now, we are were the first to admit that we are to achieve

that by working as a single company, which is why we are forming partnerships with our like-minded competitor companies, trade associations and NGOs to advance our goals. Single companies simply cannot create the scale that a consortium of corporations and organizations can, which is why P&G is a proud member of the Sustainability Consortium network. At the end of the day, that is the best way to understand where the problems are, so that we can put our resources to optimal use to fix them.

You Talk, PACK EXPO Listens

The Customer-Centric reasons PACK EXPO Las Vegas is the most comprehensive packaging and processing trade show this year Poised to break records, PACK EXPO Las Vegas 2013 (September 23-25; Las Vegas Convention Center, Las Vegas, NV) has exceeded exhibit space expectations, two months ahead of show time. With more than 1,600 processing and packaging solutions providers occupying over 700,000 net square feet, the show will be North America’s most comprehensive resource for packaging and processing innovation by far. Attendees Make their Voices Heard To ensure PACK EXPO shows continue to meet the changing needs of brand owners, PMMI commissioned an in-depth study with past show attendees. Among the study’s many findings, which have been documented in a study called ‘Voice of the Attendee: CPG Attendees’ Perceptions of the “Total Show Experience,” was the fact that personalization and the ability to easily identify solutions was key to attendee satisfaction. PACK EXPO Las Vegas 2013 is well positioned to meet this need thanks to the inclusion of several features: • Specializ ed Pavilions Candy producers will find the innovations that can help solve their processing and packaging challenges inside The Confectionery Pavilion, sponsored by the National Confectioners Association. Pharmaceutical manufacturers will be able to turn to The Pharmaceutical Pavilion for the latest in track-and-trace, inspection and other technologies critical to the industry. The Processing Zone will address the trend of integration at a greater level with the latest processing technologies for a range of market sectors including food, beverage, baked goods, snack food, meat, dairy and produce. Attendees will find additional examples of these technologies throughout the exhibit halls. • Indus try Specific Lounges Dedicated lounges on the show floor will offer specialized opportunities for professionals in the baking and snack, beverage, confectionery and pharmaceutical industries to connect with suppliers for even faster access to the solutions they need. Each lounge will house an “Ask the Expert” forum, where attendees can receive guidance from experts on specific packaging- and processing-related challenges. • The SMB FastTrack Program Small- and medium-sized manufacturers with annual revenues between $50 and $500 million qualify for the new SMB FastTrack program. This free program will connect attendees with exhibitors that offer special incentives, programs, pricing or other services to SMBs. Additional benefits are available to C-suite executives with the SMB FastTrack Platinum program. Full program details are available at www.packexpo.com/fasttrack. • The Serendipity Factor Arguably, one of the greatest values PACK EXPO offers versus industry-specific events is that you have an opportunity to see solutions and innovations from other industries. “Attendees of PACK EXPO commonly report benefiting from new, serendipitous opportunities in different industries,” said Charles D. Yuska, president and CEO of PMMI, the Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, owner and producer of PACK EXPO. “Discovering new ideas and technology through cross-pollination across different industries is one of the key benefits that only a comprehensive show like PACK EXPO could provide.” Register for PACK EXPO Las Vegas now at www.packexpo.com and take advantage of discounted rates. We look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas! FOR MORE INFORMATION CIRCLE 154

REDUCED PACKAGING A PERFECT PICK-ME-UP

ecently, the highrise condo where I reside has launched a new garbage collection problem for organic waste materials, which allows myself and the other 500 or so people to use our garbage chutes only for disposing of specified organic materials that fit into the City of Toronto’s Green Bin requirements, with all the Blue Bin recyclable and landfill-destined trash still being hauled by residents to the ground-f loor garbage room. This change in our approach to household garbage management had me think about how much less leftover packaging I’m throwing away nowadays compared to only a few years ago— before sustainable packaging became all the rage in the CPG (consumer packaged goods) marketplace—without having altered my usual shopping and purchasing choices and selections to any great extent. Someone is doing great things in the name of packaging reduction.

This certainly applies to the Double Stuff Oreo cookies manufactured by Christie Brown & Co., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kraft Canada Inc. in Toronto. Oreos were once stacked in a multifolded waxed f luted lightweight paper, placed in a multilayer paper wrapper and sealed off along the top with paper-wrapped wire, whose tabs then had to be pushed over the edges of the rolled-up opening to prevent accidental unraveling of the whole package. None of that is required any more, thanks to new Oreo cookie packaging that uses 25 per cent less packaging materials. Oreos are now nestled in a thin, sturdy plastic tray slipped into a thin plastic pouch

with a resealable air-tight seal that preserves freshness long after initial opening. To open, consumers pull back the package’s front panel—vividly decorated with whimsical imagery of a large cookie surfing on a wave of milk, along with the eye-catching white Oreo logo set against the brilliant backdrop of turquoise and fuschia color swaths—and then push it back in place to be resealed with the ‘magic’ food-grade adhesive that seems to retain its holding power until the pack’s contents have been completely cleaned out. As a finicky consumer, I had my initial doubts about the product protection the new packaging would deliver, but happily, I have yet to come across a broken Oreo in the new packaging, which just leaves me with two simple packaging components to go into my Blue Box container. Sweet stuff all around, Christie!

Not to be outdone, the Oxi Clean Max Force Gel Stick Pre-Treater—marketed by Church & Dwight Canada Corp. of Mississauga, Ont.—is a ringing endorsement for less being more in contemporary consumer packaging. Standing just over 19-cm-tall and measuring 4.5-cm in diameter, this cylindrical package is a fully functional applicator that requires the consumer to remove the protective cap and gently depress the applicator top to dispense the product. Despite the smallish packaging size, the crisp graphics and vivid colors work effectively to grab the consumer’s attention with a loud shout-out about the product’s ability to blast away even the toughest and unsighliest stains. With the exception of a little shrinkwrap used to hold the cap in place at the point-of-purchase, all of the container’s components are perfectly Blue Boxcompatible after use.

I used to think that aside from creative label design, there wasn’t much one could do to make an aluminum can stand apart from the competition. But, I recently came across a delicious trendy new coffee drink retailing in textured cans packing some very enticing value-added packaging perks. Manufactured by the Taiwan-based Uni-President Enterprises Corp. and imported by Six Fortune Enterprise Co. Ltd. of Burnaby, B.C., the 235ml cans of Master Café provide grippability for the textured cylinder with a clever structural design that incorporates vertical ridges reminiscent of the wooden planks used to make barrels. And with the bottom of the cans being slightly smaller than the tops, it provides an inherent stackability of the empty containers —and the fully-recyclable cans hardly take up any space in the aforementioned Blue Box at home. However, it’s especially hard on the eyes with the Espresso f lavor can—with tiny black text printed against a dark-green background—and not much better with the Latte f lavor, where ultra-small light-grey text literally gets lost against the brushed-aluminum can ends. But, being an imported product requires these cans to feature an attached adhesive label displaying all the required product information in both English and French in good old black-onwhite print that tells consumers all they need to know about this f lavorful trendy beverage.
