EAFA to demonstrate benefits of alufoil packaging in Interpack 2017

The European Aluminium Foil Association (EAFA) along with Flexible Packaging Europe (FPE) will put up a stand in Interpack 2017, the biggest packaging exhibition in the world and demonstrate the continued importance of aluminium foil as one of the major factors in packaging development and technology.

The stand will feature live Foil & Taste events, showing all the benefits of alufoil packaging in a diverse range of markets and aluminium foil packaging experts to answer visitor queries. They will also show how aluminium foil provides the best solutions for packaging products working with other materials like plastics and paper.

The would demonstrate different benefits and uses of alufoil by dedicating one day for each use, like chocolate packaging, wine closure, barbeque, coffee pods etc.

Arno Steguweit, a well-known sommelier talks about aluminium closures,

“Contrary to widespread opinion, aluminium closures can be found on top of wine and water bottles of all price categories and are not restricted to products of lesser quality. Indeed, because of the reclosability, after l take a tasting sample of some excellent wine or mineral water from a bottle with an aluminium closure l can be totally confident what remains in the bottle will maintain its quality and aroma for a long period.”

Georg Maushagen, a chocolatier has the following view on aluminium foil packaging:

“In the daily preparation or the presentation of products, the flexibility and formability of aluminium foil offers me two ways to implement my ideas creatively. Visitors to the Foil & Taste feature can look forward to seeing aluminium foil cornets filled with pleasurable spheres of taste experiences from the world of molecular cuisine.”

“As a barista, I only use the best quality ingredients when preparing a coffee. This is the reason why I need packaging that does not affect the quality of that coffee and preserves it over a long period. Flexible packaging, made with aluminium foil, provides the best conditions for effective protection of the grounds or beans from external influences, until the moment of preparation,” says a famous barista.

Ed van de Schootbrugge, from European BBQ Champion 2012 also endorses the use of aluminium foil:

“Aluminium foil is an integral part of a modern BBQ and opens up possibilities for numerous recipe variations. Meat, fish and vegetables can be perfectly prepared thanks to the heat resistance of household foil made from aluminium.”

Demonstrations will take place four times every day at 11.30, 13.30, 15.00 and 16.30., the press release from EAFA confirms.
