High Barrier Plastics Cup Design Improves Logistics and Cost

A new development in RPC Bebo Nederland’s popular fruit cups made of high barrier plastics results in a material reduction and lower stack for improved logistics and cost benefits.

The design of the 80mm diameter, 128ml capacity cup features from RPC Bebo, eight flutes to provide stability. The stacking height has been adjusted to increase container loads. The new size has been designed partly to replace RPC Bebo Nederland’s existing 140ml version, following customer demand for a smaller pack size. The difference in capacity enables fruit packers to use less syrup in their products, making a valuable cost saving per pack. Design changes have also enabled material reduction down to 1300 micron for further cost-efficiency.

Created to meet demand from customers, the new cup strengthens RPC's leading position in this market.

The new design incorporates all of the usual benefits of the 80mm range, including high transparency to allow consumers to see product contents, is thermoformed in a PP/EVOH/PP construction providing excellent barrier protection for long ambient shelf life, suitability for pasteurisation and sterilisation, and use of recycled material.

High transparency ensures that consumers can see the product content, whilst the smooth design delivers a large labelling area that allows customers to personalise the packaging with brand information.

The functional and aesthetic benefits of the cup are complemented by competitive pricing and high efficiency on production lines, making RPC Bebo Nederland a reliable and flexible packaging partner.

The cup, available to fruit packers worldwide, is already being used by several Chinese companies, including Xiamen International Trade & Industrial Co. Ltd, Zhejiang Iceman Foods, Hop Chong and Zhejiang Xinchang Best Foods.
