Tetra Fino Aseptic launched by TetraPak

New possibilities for liquid dairy products

June 1, 2018

TetraPak introduced the new Ultra Shape with MiM opening for Tetra Fino Aseptic packages in October 2017. The tear-off opening of Tetra Fino package is hygienic, robust and easy to open for children aged 6 years and older. TetraPak received Alufoil Trophy 2018 award for Tetra Fino Aseptic 100 Ultra MiM. The new package allows dairy and juice drinks to be produced and distributed in small carton pouches at room temperature, and subsequently turned into frozen products in shops or in a consumer’s home. The technology is claimed
to redefine the ice cream supply chain and business model. Tetra Pak’s aseptic technology eliminates the need to invest in freezer infrastructure. Product quality is protected for longer periods allowing the product to reach a broader geographic market.

Key benefits

The packaging is claimed to keep food safe for a long time. It protects against light and oxygen, keeping the contents of the package fresh, nutritious and tasty as the day they were packaged. Tetra Fino Aseptic is available in eight different sizes from 70 ml to 1000 ml that are customizable to meet everyday needs and the low-cost paper-based packages increase profitability. The new package will be available from 2018 in the Greater Middle East, Europe and Asia.

Packaging South Asia — resilient, growing and impactful — daily, monthly — always responsive

The multi-channel B2B in print and digital 17-year-old platform matches the industry’s growth trajectory. The Indian, South Asian, Southeast Asian, and Middle East packaging industries are looking beyond the resilience of the past three years. They are resuming capacity expansion and diversification, with high technology and automation in new plants and projects.

As we present our 2024 publishing plan, India’s real GDP growth for the financial year ending 31 March 2024 will exceed 6%. The packaging industry growth will match the GDP growth in volume terms and surpass it by at least 3% in terms of nominal growth allowing for price inflation in energy, raw materials, consumables, and capital equipment.

The capacity for flexible film manufacturing in India increased by 45% over the past four years. With orders in place, we expect another 20% capacity addition in 2024 and 2025. Capacities in monocartons, corrugation, aseptic liquid packaging, and labels are grown similarly. As the consumption story returns over the next six months, we expect demand to return and exceed the growth trajectory of previous years. The numbers are positive for most of the economies in the region – and as shown by our analytics, our platform increasingly reaches and influences these.

For responsible and sustainable packaging, with its attendant regulations and compliances, there is significant headroom to grow in India and the region. Our coverage includes the entire packaging supply chain – from concept to shelf and to waste collection, sorting, and recycling.

We target brand owners, product managers, raw material suppliers, packaging designers and converters, and recyclers. This is a large and complex canvas – the only thing that can work is your agile thinking and innovation together with our continuous learning and persistence.

The coming year looks to be an up year in this region, and this is the right time to plan your participation and marketing communication – in our rich and highly targeted business platform with human resources on the ground. Share your thoughts and plans and to inspire and mobilize our editorial and advertising teams!
