Food Packaging - Innovation Outsourced

From Labthink Instruments Co., Ltd
 

 

A polymer-coated steel bowl for gourmet meat salads clicked for French ready-to-eat meal processor William Saurin and won container supplier Crown Food Europe this year's DuPont Diamond Award.

The days when the world looked to America for breakthrough food and beverage packaging may be going the way of $2-a-gallon gas, if the 2005 DuPont Awards for innovation in packaging are any indication. If these were the Academy Awards, US fans would have had to wait for the technical achievement awards to celebrate.
