Lactalis uses bioplastics for its cheese snacks

Precious Sticksters cheeses are filled on hf/f/s equipment using a 50-50 film blend of polylactic acid and petroleum-based materials.

Buffalo, NY-based cheese maker Lactalis American Group, Inc., notes on its Web site that the company has “always been ‘green’ way before it was the popular thing to do.” The latest example is the renewable packaging it is using for its Precious® Sticksters® snack cheeses.

The packaging features a new film material made partially from plant-based plastic. This development is part of the Project EarthClear™initiative from Clear Lam Packaging, Inc.

Clear Lam’s renewable packaging materials are produced from plant-based bioplastics derived from Natureworks Ingeo™ PLA (polylactic acid) along with ingredients that enhance performance. These materials are part of the company’s Project EarthClear program and replace petroleum-based plastics with biobased ingredients developed to reduce the introduction of fossil carbon into the atmosphere.
