“Glyna®” and “Amino Aile®” Pillow Package with 6 Stick Packs
Ajinomoto Co., Inc.
A newly developed pillow bag containing stick packs of granular food has reduced the environmental impact. A conventional film package is composed of multiple materials for sealability; this package is made of a single material (mono-material) by applying ultrasonic sealing technology to reduce film weight by approximately 30 percent and CO2 emissions by 36 percent. In addition, introducing water-based flexo printing has greatly reduced the solvent used.
