SHELTON, Conn. -- Inline Plastics Corp. has introduced a new grab-and-go, 12-ounce snack cups, the newest version of the company's Safe-T-Fresh line of products. These easy-open and -close snack cups lock in freshness, extend shelf life and are available with either flat or dome lids, the company said.
These new clamshell containers, which are designed to fit most automobile cup holders, are especially intended for convenience stores, supermarkets and delis. Typical applications for the containers include fresh-cut fruits and vegetables, bakery items, yogurt, parfait and a variety of snack goods.
The new containers' clear design promotes attractive product merchandising that highlights the quality of its contents. The perimeter seal closure of the container provides increased product shelf life, improved leak resistance and better protection of its contents.
All Safe-T-Fresh containers incorporate a tamper-resistant locking mechanism and an exclusive patented tear-strip hinge that the consumer removes to gain access to the contents of the container. This design eliminates the need for shrink-bands or wrap-around labels to prevent product tampering, said the company, as well as protecting the product better than many types of flexible packaging.
Along with the entire Safe-T-Fresh line, the new snack cup containers are manufactured from 100% recyclable PET, benefiting retailers and processors by providing containers to their customers who desire environmentally responsible packaging.
Shelton, Conn.-based Inline Plastics, founded in 1968, is a leading manufacturer of packaging designed to merchandise a wide variety of items.
