Food quality and safety: the Cibapac assurance
|
Consumer and regulatory forces, not least the new Consumer Protection Act, mean that all food manufacturers have to do more to assure that the foods they produce are safely packed for consumption. Consumers have a right to expect safe, high-quality food. And it's a right that all in the supply chain are obliged to honour.
This is why we have gone the extra mile to win British Retail Consortium-certification for our world-class factory campus in Cape Town's Montague Gardens.
BRC is a rigorous international standard that requires implementation of strict risk, quality and safety management systems. For the past two years, we have achieved the highest possible audit rating.
At Cibapac, we understand that food safety is a non-negotiable for our customers and that only first-rate packaging for food will do. We believe food safety assurance is about sense, not cents.

The Cibapac commitment
|
Cibapac prides itself on being flexible and customer-centric. We have our finger on the market and an ear for our customers' requirements – and we act on them.
In an ever-changing business environment, we recognise that as a packaging supplier we have to be creative and innovative in finding solutions that not only reduce costs for our customers, but which also offer points of differentiation in the retail marketplace.
Cibapac always looks to bring new products to the fore, not only with interesting imports, but also by maximising and expanding our own world-class production facilities that are manned by skilled technical personnel.
The Cibapac commitment is to be proactive; to do work we're proud of; to treat people with respect; to stand by our principals of professionalism, integrity and delivery; and, most importantly, to ship our solutions to a growing number of satisfied customers.

Extensive choice of foamo trays
For more than 60 years, extruded polystyrene (XPS) has been the material of choice for much food packaging – and remains so for today and the future. Our foamo trays combine:
* simplicity * strength * lightweight protection * versatility * heat/cold retention * least possible environmental impact * keen pricing
Available in black, white or three-colour branded printing, Cibapac offers an extensive choice of food-grade foamo flat and clam-shell trays for: * fast foods * red meat * poultry * seafood * baked goods * pizza * fresh produce
See our new deep drawn Unitray – priced significantly less than any polyprop options.

Multi-layered vacuum bags
• Top quality, five-layer barrier bags – highly secure pouches that preserve and extend the shelf life of fresh and processed meat products.
• Automated dosage and thickness control of each polymer layer ensures the bags' consistency and functionality.
• Outer and inner polyolefin layers for extra water and moisture protection.
• Reduced leaker rates and protection from outside abrasion moisture – thanks to a sandwiched nylon layer. This also creates a high oxygen barrier to retard bacterial growth.
• Minimal curl - this equates to more secure and consistent seals and better draw of vacuum.
• Excellent clarity enhances retail display and merchandising opportunities.
• Can be flexo printed.
|
|
High-performance shrink bags
• Ideally suited for packaging fresh and processed meat products, with or without bones.
• Incorporating advanced nine-layer technology, these bags are designed to give fresh meat or cheese up to six months shelf life (under ideal conditions).
• EVOH barrier, high transparency and gloss, excellent puncture resistance, high shrinkage of up to 50%, overlap seal (multiple bags in a sealing chamber won't stick to each other), excellent sealing even on contaminated seal surfaces.
• Strengths of 45 - 100 micron. Available as bottom seal round (BSR), bottom seal straight (BSS) or side seal (SS).
• Can be flexo printed.
