Ube nylon can be an option for packaging canned hearts of Palm

Although the glass and metal cans have always been the "official" containers for canned hearts of Palm, the resolution RDC 85/2016 from Anvisa (national health surveillance agency), opens the possibility of the plastic containers are used in the packaging of this product. Generally speaking, the resolution reduced the quarantine period of palmito, created risk control devices during your manufacturing and changed the values of vacuum required hitherto for the different types and volumes of packaging. Finally, the DRC 85/2016 updated the reference of the Codex Alimentarius to the canned hearts of Palm.
"With this, we see a huge potential for the UBE nylon being turned into flexible packaging for palm heart in conversation, especially packaging stand-up pouch type. This is because Brazil is the number 1 in the world in production, consumption and export of Palm ", celebrates Daniel Hernandes, Sales Executive of UBE Latin America.
This process of glass transition to flexible, especially for heart of Palm, requires a control drive in the various stages of the process, especially of the retort that step implies the prolonged exposure to high temperatures and pressure, for the sterilization of the bottled product. According to Daniel, "the 5033FD8 of UBE nylon is ideal for this application. The material ensures that the packaging keep your optical and mechanical properties and oxygen barrier, even after the processoretort, extending product shelf time and ensuring your integrity. "
It is worth remembering that the palm heart production base in Brazil is 90% extraction and situated, in your most, in para. Domestic revenue in the industry revolves around $ $350,000,000, in a global market scale around $ $500,000,000. "In the years 90, a defunct manufacturer of thermoplastic resins came to send technicians to Pará industries of palmito pickled to probe the chances of pots injected abocanharem a fraction held by glass bottles, in response to complaints disclosed at sector as the losses and costs of packaging used. We need to regain this contact to activate this market for plastic packaging, flexible focused on account of their structural properties and logistical advantages and lower environmental impact ", concludes Daniel.
