Baby food - only the best is good enough
Quality, a long shelf life and safety have top priority in the sensitive baby food market. Responsible baby food manufacturing starts with careful choice of the raw materials, continues with closely monitored production involving comprehensive control systems and includes absolutely safe packaging.
Huhtamaki supplies reliable, high-quality packaging solutions in this sector. Single-serve packs for ready meals and instant tea beverages, for example, in side-sealed pouches or sterilisable stand-up pouches. Rapid microwave heating is a key issue too. Huhtamaki develops customized solutions that are tailor-made for the product and production processes concerned in the special area of barrier lid films. Organoleptic properties play an important role in the selection of raw materials.
Confectionery, coffee, tea - a real treat
Confectionery and bakery products are delicious to eat, while being an emotional treat into the bargain. In order to make sure that the products are noticed and bought in a market where consumers find it increasingly difficult to keep track, packaging needs to be eye-catching, look appetizing and maintain the characteristics and taste of the contents.
We help our customers to make their products distinctive by developing such new concepts as multipacks, mini-sizes, stand-up pouches or shaped pouches. Our proven monofilms facilitate waste reduction and the new range of multilayer film flow wrap products has additional design potential, opening up even more application areas.
Aroma and freshness are what make good coffee excellent. Our laminates provide optimum puncture resistance and aroma barrier properties for ground coffee and whole beans. Superb printing attracts the consumer's attention and encourages him to buy.
Tremendous promises are made on the packaging for tea products in particular. Imaginative names, colors and designs encourage the consumer to expect a unique taste experience. So this taste must not be lost. Huhtamaki supplies an extensive range of tea bag packaging with a high aroma barrier as well as individual packs.
Dairy products - fresh and healthy
Huhtamaki has a long tradition of producing the packaging for cheese and dairy products. It almost goes without saying that Huhtamaki specialized in this kind of packaging many years ago now, has an impressive track record and can supply a wide range of different products. Reclosable cheese packs, film packaging for Camembert and cheese snacks, wrappers for edible fats, lid materials and labels for dairy products are just a few examples of our successful packaging concepts.
Ice cream - nothing could be cooler
Food of the gods, as ice cream was known in ancient Greece, is a lifestyle product nowadays that is
enjoyed all over the world. Optimum packaging is essential so that the creamy consistency is maintained and eating the ice cream is the anticipated delight.
Our product program ranges from cone sleeves made from paper or laminate material to large family packs with easily opened lid material. We develop mono- or multilayer films in metallized, opaque or transparent forms with high visual appeal for impulse products marketed at the point of sale.
Pet food - for healthy pets
People develop close relationships to their pets. They can choose from a large selection of different products to ensure that their four-legged friends have a varied diet. Pet food manufacturers choose
safe and practical concepts.
Huhtamaki is the market leader for sterilisable stand-up pouches, which are developed on an ongoing basis. The single-serve pack guarantees freshness, is practical to handle and is both compact and easy to dispose of or recycle. Huhtamaki supplies the film laminate for the stand-up pouches - transparent and opaque - and satisfies high barrier requirements with and without aluminium. The laminate can be printed extremely attractively too, so that strong visual impact and impressive effects are possible. Snack packs and multipacks round off the range.
Pharmaceuticals - hygienic and safe
The pharmaceutical industry faces tough assignments in a society in which people are living longer and longer and new illnesses are developing all the time. New courses of treatment, shorter hospital stays and thus more care at home are changing the demands made on medicine and the packaging for it.
The challenge for Huhtamaki is to develop new packaging concepts, which guarantee absolute hygiene, sterility and a long shelf life. Huhtamaki produces sterilisable primary and secondary packaging for enteral and parenteral food, gamma- and/or ETO-sterilisable packs for clinical products as well as monofilm primary packs for sticking plaster. As a specialist in this segment, Huhtamaki naturally supplies flexible packaging materials for liquids as an alternative to glass or metal.
Ready meals - practical, easy and fast
Practical, easy, fast - three words that characterize the properties of ready meals and convenience products and reflect the new eating habits of our fast-moving times. Consumers want maximum
convenience and get it in the form of portioned dried and ready meals, which are chilled, unchilled or frozen.
Huhtamaki produces innovative, high-quality packaging made from many different materials. Thermoformable film laminates are an optimum solution for the growing market for snacks and on-the-go products.
Huhtamaki's packaging concepts have the following advantages: attractive presentation thanks to gravure printing and appealing design, long product shelf life, sterilisability, high puncture resistance when the product contains particulates, easy opening and simple handling, low weight and thus little waste.
Soups and sauces - hot and nutritious
Huhtamaki develops suitable packaging for instant or ready-to-eat dry and wet soups. The product shown on the pack has to look attractive and appetizing on the supermarket shelf. The appeal of the pack therefore plays a crucial role, which is determined to a very large extent by an impressive print
motif, high gloss and a smooth surface. Huhtamaki works constantly on optimizing the pack for dried soups that has been firmly established for a long time now, e.g. launching the twin-chamber pack.
Huhtamaki supplies a thoroughly proven packaging concept for the wet soups and sauces market with sterilisable stand-up pouches. Our bouillon cube pack is particularly innovative.
Tube laminate, detergents, non-food products - simple and clean
Tube laminate, non-food products
Tradition meets innovation here too, like in all other areas. Huhtamaki produces not only conventional wrappers for soap but also completely new packs for sophisticated products with barrier requirements.
As one of the world's leading manufacturers of tube laminates, Huhtamaki supplies tailor-made solutions for any and every application area, such as dental or personal care, technical applications or food products.
Detergents and cleaning products
Our optimized thermoforming technology enables us to supply ideal packaging concepts, e.g. for disposable wipes, which we can produce very efficiently at our associated plants thanks to high-speed manufacturing processes. Functional packs for detergent tabs as well as solid and liquid detergents make life somewhat easier.
