Tetra Recart is a retortable carton, replacing metal cans and jars

At Anuga FoodTec, Tetra Pak highlighted its solutions for the prepared foods sector, addressing the increasing consumer demand for ready-to-eat (RTE) products. The solutions are designed with flexibility, allowing producers to switch between different products and recipes, thereby maximising operational efficiency.

The company also showcased its Tetra Recart, which claims to be the first retortable carton in the world. It is designed to replace traditional cans and glass jars. Ideal for a range of shelf-stable foods, such as sauces, purees, and ready meals, Tetra Recart offers environmental benefits, including up to an 81% reduction in carbon emissions compared to steel cans and glass jars.

Made from 69% renewable paperboard and certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), Tetra Recart ensures that the materials used are responsibly sourced.

Varghese Jacob, TRC business development manager - South Asia markets, Tetra Pak India, said, “On the second day, we saw good traction and better footfall. Our visitor profile mainly consists of food manufacturers, food processors, and the F&B sector.”

He said, “Tetra Pak holds 70% global market share in aseptic packaging. We provide processing solutions, packaging and services.”
