Innovation As Standard – RPC and Superfos at Interpack
Friday 25. March 2011 - RPC - Hall 9, Stand E14 RPC Superfos - Hall 10, Stand D21 Interpack 2011 provides the perfect opportunity for customers to explore the strengths and capabilities of the enlarged RPC Group which now incorporates Superfos.
The two stands at the exhibition offer an insight into both companies ground-breaking work in rigid plastics packaging. They showcase the latest designs and technologies to meet the needs of a wide variety of markets including food, cosmetics, personal care, surface coatings and industrial.
One of the highlights of the RPC Superfos stand will be the companys thin wall packaging SuperLight which is 30 per cent lighter than conventional packaging. It lessens the carbon footprint since it requires less fuel for transportation. The companys award winning SuperLock packaging will also be featured. It has a screw on lid that ensures perfect re-closure and re-use and offers products a shelf life of up to 24 months. On shelf and in the home SuperLock combines the visual brand perception of glass with the many advantages of plastic. RPC Superfos will also showcase its latest advances in co-injection methods which make it possible to incorporate more recycled material.

RPC Kutenholz, experts in new material combinations in extrusion blow moulding, will preview Euro squeeze, a brand new standard range of multilayer PP bottles available in various sizes.
