We're exhibiting at Plastic Waste Free World - here's what you'll see (or what you're missing!)
Sirane Ltd
Packaging. Manufacturing & development. Specialists in absorbency, bags/pouches/films (including flexibles), and board.
SIRANE is exhibiting at the Plastic Waste Free World Conference & Expo in Cologne this week – where we will focus on our sustainable packaging solutions. If you’re going, here’s a preview of what you’ll find on our booth (2016). If you’re not going, well then this is what you’re missing!
Some more recent Sirane developments worth checking out include
Earthpouch Duo – a plastic-free stand-up pouch with a window – is one of our more recent developments which will be featured on our stand.
Peter Ralten, chief commercial officer, said: “Earth Packaging has been very well received at the Plastic-Waste Free World in the past, and I have no doubt that this year there’ll be strong interest in our packaging.
“Sirane’s constantly innovating and moving forwards, and the Earthpouch Duo is a great example of that. While customers loved our plastic-free Earthpouch, we were regularly asked whether a window was possible?
“In a paper-barrier pouch, this was a challenge – but one we rose to.”
Everything in our Earth Packaging range is either compostable or recyclable and is either paper-based, board-based or bio-material-based.
Our range includes our plastic-free recyclable barrier pouches – Earthpouch, and our plastic-free recyclable barrier film for flow-wrap – Earthfilm.
Within the last year we’ve added plastic-free quad-packs to the range and have also added an ovenable version – Earthpouch Supreme.
However, plastic-free won’t work for everyone – and we can also offer a range of recyclable plastics, which are our RePEat range. These materials can all be recycled as part of the PE recycling stream.
Our RePEat range includes our new spouted pouches, which we showed at Packaging Innovations in Birmingham earlier this year for the first time.
Peter Ralten, chief commercial officer, said: “The spouted pouches proved really popular at Packaging Innovations. There are millions of these pouches used, and we’re offering a way to ensure they can be recycled.”

Other RePEat formats include vacuum pouches and stand-up pouches.
From our Earthboard range we offer paper-recyclable salmon boards, which can be used in conjunction with our recyclable RePEat vacuum pouches.
And we’ve just finished trials on a new Earthboard Eco version of our plastic-free recyclable salmon boards (also suitable for cured meats, VSP etc.) which means we will now be able offer Earthboard Eco and Earthboard Plus.
Earthboard Eco will be available in black, grey, silver and gold (other colours available on request) and offers improved performance as well as looking more attractive, with a pearlescent finish in colours traditionally used in the market.
Ross Griffin, head of board, said: “The Earthboard Eco offers all the barrier requirements needed for packaging salmon etc, and is fully recyclable. We can offer it in colours including gold and black, which have been used with salmon etc for many years.”
We also offer a range of other recyclable coated boards including cake-boards and cake-collars, patisserie boards and ovenable boards.
We have our twisted-handle paper-grab bags – a sustainable shopping bag – as well as our RePeat recyclable and reusable insulated bags.
Even the humble absorbent pad can be supplied in a recyclable format, with our Earthpad – a paper-based and paper-recyclable absorbent pad.
And we’re just released a new product – Earthpad Soft-Hold, which is a recyclable paper-based cushioned absorbent pad, perfect for soft and delicate fruits such as raspberries, blackberries and strawberries.
Sirane also offers plastic-free tree-shelters – our Earthboard tree-shelters are made from a naturally water-resistant board with additional protective coatings and are designed to last out in the field for many years.
Ultimately, however, they will eventually break down and return to the soil – removing the time-consuming job of collecting them all in.
Sirane will be at Plastic Waste-Free World – which is co-hosted with the Greener Manufacturing Show - in Cologne from November 9-10 – stand 2016.?
