Semi-rigid container
Lightweight aluminium packaging gives sheer enjoyment. Ready-to-serve meals need to be packaged in an optimum manner, since they are often transported over long distances to the customer.
The packaging must also safeguard the taste of the contents and be convenient to use. Aluminium containers meet these requirements in an ideal way.
They are robust, physiologically harmless and easy to produce. Furthermore the packaging can be made extremely attractive by lacquering and printing. With these advantages semi-rigid containers are widely used for catering, in the aviation industry, in canteens and for domestic use.
