Food Safety Regulations at Forefront for Packaging Company

It seems food recalls are continually at the forefront of the news these days, but Performance Packaging is offering something a little more for companies who seek to ensure that doesn't happen to their brand - a safer packaging solution.

FDA routinely updates food contact safety regulations, but they're far from easy to understand, the company said. Extensive language on what can and cannot be used as packaging is tough for companies, particularly smaller brands, to work through so they can get their products on shelves faster. So, while those regulations are critical, there is an easier way to get the packaging a company needs.

"We're GFSI certified," said President Robert Reinders. "Our customers in the food and beverage industry know they can turn to us for safe packaging that lessens the time from production to the retail shelf."

Performance Packaging offers packaging solutions that address regulations without companies having to contact an attorney for a translation of the extensive documentation, it said. With a line that includes exclusive straw pouches, lidding easy peel, shelf stable pouches and other advantages, it is simpler to get safe products on the shelf fast. One of the company's biggest features is its ability to bring packaging innovation to the table. Because statistics suggest brand packaging has a huge influence on purchase numbers, Performance Packaging continually offers new possibilities to consumers through their numerous patented technologies.  

"We're working to develop the best, new solutions our customers want, and that gives their brand an edge when they hit the store shelves," Reinders said.
