Safetek International has announced that its subsidiary, Newave Packaging, has commenced marketing its new environmentally friendly 'ewrap' food wrap film for meat, poultry, produce and frozen foods.
Food Wrap Cling Film Polyethylene (PE), the base material used in the manufacture of ewrap is a simple structure polymer that is believed to place less Eco-strain on the environment than other materials.
Advantages of ewrap over conventional PVC cling film, based on company testing, are that it is Harmless, Eco-Friendly and 100% non-toxic.
Newave Packaging CEO Stefan Gudmundsson said that all plastic bags, films and sheets are non-PVC based and 100% recyclable, and have the potential to be made 100% degradable with the addition of degradable plastic additives.
“These products could ultimately degrade in a landfill environment. Based on testing, once the process is complete, carbon dioxide, water and biomass will remain, leaving only non-toxic by-products,” Gudmundsson added.
Newave is one of the leading suppliers of ‘green’ packaging products to the food packaging industry.
