NEW PRODUCTS Senzani introduces 0MNIA, the first customisable cartoning machine for all possible capsules formats and for all carton types To support packers and coffee-roasters, Senzani Brevetti, an Italian company on the market for over 65 years, has created 0MNIA, a revolutionary “all-in-one” cartoner that starts a new generation of automatic coffee capsules packaging machines. 0MNIA is a form-and-fill cartoning machine from flat blank to pack capsules in all possible nested configurations and into all types of cartons - single or multilayer, with or without honeycomb sheet, with or without interlayer pad, in 2x2 configuration, in flip-top closure carton, with “standing” capsules, alternated or nested, in tube/stick, in 3x3 or 4x4 box. An extremely flexible solution, Senzani designers can custommake to suit the most complex requests and configurations in terms of pack, performance and dimensions, but also according to capsule formats (from Nespresso to Caffitaly, from K-cup to Lavazza blu, from A Modo Mio up to the new Vertuo). 0MNIA is able to pack up to 80 cartons per minute, with an infeed speed up to 800 ppm and can also count on an extremely compact footprint (from 2 x 3.9m) which makes it the perfect solution in production plants with limited space available. The carton format change is extremely quick and intuitive for the operator, thanks to colour codes (visit www.senzani.com).

Quality disposables manufacturer and supplier, Herald, has launched a selection of 100% compostable, aqueous hot cups as part of its environmentally-friendly range – with both double and ripple wall options. Supplying to meet the increased demand from the catering and food to go sectors, for fully sustainable and greener products, Herald has prioritised providing an additional ripple wall option, not commonly offered in a completely compostable form, along with a selection of sizes. These sizes – 8oz, 12oz and 16oz – complement the lids Herald currently has available, allowing existing customers to make the switch to the 100 per cent compostable, aqueous product without having to invest in new lids. Managing director of Herald, Yogesh Patel, said: “The increase in takeaway options for cafés, restaurants and pubs means that the market has expanded for disposable cups and many of these new customers are conscious of their own customers’ environmental considerations. “The environment was an increasingly sensitive issue pre-Covid and making eco-friendly choices is one thing that people feel they can still take control of during the pandemic. For us, at Herald, our task is to respond to the market, while providing as much choice as possible and maintaining the competitive pricing structure that we’re known for.” Visit www.heraldplastic.com or call 0208 507 7900 to order a copy of the new catalogue.
