SIG Combibloc Group, a provider of aseptic carton packaging systems and solutions, has introduced a new family-size aseptic carton pack, called combivita.

Designed to meet the requirements of the beverage industry, the new aseptic carton pack is available in three volume sizes – 500ml, 750ml, and 1,000ml.

The aseptic carton pack, which was developed based on extensive consumer-centric research, is said to deliver a competitive edge to beverage manufacturers.

Combivita’s slanted top and wider opening of the new carton pack facilitates smooth and easy pouring with the company’s new tethered, easy open and resealable closure truTwist, which is 32.5mm in its external diameter.

According to the company, combivita provides on-shelf differentiation and flexibility in the filing process.

Furthermore, beverage manufacturers can use the side corner panels of combivita for additional on-pack branding to enhance shelf presence.

The organic curve on the back enables consumers of all ages to easily handle the pack, in addition to providing elegance.

Combivita pack also helps in 100% pallet utilisation and minimise secondary packaging and logistics costs compared to existing carton formats, stated the company.

SIG innovation SVP Ali Kaylan said: “The pandemic has fuelled a paradigm shift in consumer habits, including working from home and buying products in advance.

“As a result, the demand for convenient family-size products and packaging formats has grown exponentially. Our new combivita carton pack makes life more simple, convenient, flexible and sustainable for both consumers and our customers.”

SIG NEO, the company’s next-generation filling machine, is first used to fill combivita family-size carton packs.

Combivita carton pack is produced using paperboard sourced from FSC-certified forests and100% renewable energy during the manufacturing process.

SIG senior product manager Morshed Kamal said: “With true innovations such as combivita and our next generation SIG NEO filling machine, we are optimally equipping the food and beverage industry for today’s requirements while also preparing them for the changes, challenges and opportunities ahead.”
