Major player on the European glass jars market, Verallia presents an innovation that now makes it possible to use see-through lids with heat-sealable glass jars. Heat-sealable glass containers are generally used for yoghurts, puddings or solubles and were until now sealed with aluminium lids. Today, sealing with a transparent lid is possible. This strengthens the appeal of using glass containers while enhancing the value of their contents. Verallia has developed with partners a technical solution including the primer applied to the jars, the easy-to-open transparent lid and the heat-sealing machine usable on its customers’ packing lines. As a reference partner, Verallia guides its customers towards new applications that help them stand out from the competition by offering the end consumer distinctive containers. In April 2016, Verallia thus presented another innovation proposing, for the first time, heat-sealable, pasteurizable and retortable glass jars or containers (to see the news, click here). Endlessly recyclable, glass is the consumer’s preferred choice of packaging material. It does not interact with its contents, nor alter their taste, smell or composition.
