UniPak pot is provided with tamper evident feature, which can be easily detected and offers better convenience for end-users to break.

Palazzolo’s Artisan Dairy CEO and founder Pete Palazzolo said: “Besides assuring the end-user of an untouched product, the feature optimises our manufacturing process and, at the same time, it safeguards the quality of the Palazzolo products.

“This is because tamper evidence eliminates the need for burning a foil seal on the plastic rim, so our gelato avoids a heat shock – it stays delicious and we save time.”

The pot also features spoon in the lid, which makes the range’s 69mm diameter model suitable for eating instantly.

The spoon in the pot’s lid is said to add adds convenience to Palazzolo’s gelatos, sorbets, and other products, which are sold from food trucks in front of American football stadiums, concert halls and at other events.

RPC has also embellished the UniPak pot solution with advanced scratch-resistant in-mould labeling that generates immaculate graphics, vivid colors and clear details. It will help to reflect the bright colors and intense flavors that characterize Palazzolo’s products.

Palazzolo further added: “We experience RPC Superfos as being much more than just a packaging provider.

“They are more like a partner who really wants to see our business growing and succeeding. Our connection is far from a one-time sales contract; it is much more like the beginning of a long-term business relationship.”

Established in 1986 and based in Michigan, Palazzolo’s Artisan Dairy provides more than 1,000 flavors ranging from vegan frozen yoghurt to banana split sundae. The firm operates 50,000ft² dairy.

In October this year, RPC Superfos provided its SuperLock pot for Slovenian company Petlja’s Viki Duo chocolate spread.

Viki Duo chocolate spread is available in two colors such as brown and white, and is packaged in SuperLock pot in two sizes, 380g and 600g, with a screw lid.

RPC Superfos provides advanced packaging solutions for a variety of food and non-food applications.
