Galdi’s innovation stands out by offering solutions that combine efficiency and maximum productivity, representing excellence in every packaging food machine produced. A significant example is the collaboration with Nature’s Soy, a leading producer of vegetarian diet foods, renowned in the ethnic food market. With its production facility in Philadelphia (USA), the company distributes its products to major supermarket chains, organic, and ethnic food stores from the East Coast to the West Coast.
Packaging Food Machine Designed for Plant-Based Products
In recent years, interest in plant-based products has significantly increased. But what exactly are they? Plant-based products are foods made primarily or entirely from plant ingredients, offering alternatives to animal-based foods like meat, dairy, and eggs. They are often chosen for health, ethical, or environmental reasons.
Key Characteristics:
- Ingredients: include legumes, grains, fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds.
- Types: range from veggie burgers and almond or soy milk to coconut yogurt and vegan cheeses.
- Benefits: rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals, with a lower environmental impact compared to animal products.
- Purpose: cater to those following vegetarian or vegan diets, or anyone looking to reduce animal product consumption.
These products are gaining popularity as consumers become more aware of health and sustainability issues.
The Partnership with Galdi Inc.
Nature’s Soy aimed to launch soy milk in a carton container. Galdi Inc. addressed this need with a packaging food machine, the RG50-2UCS, known for its high performance and reliability in producing fresh liquid products like milk, cream, and fruit juices. This technology ensures the preservation of sensitive products’ quality, maintaining their organoleptic properties throughout the bottling process.
By acquiring the RG50-2UCS, Nature’s Soy successfully introduced soy milk in carton Gable Top, providing their health-conscious and eco-friendly customers with a sustainable alternative to traditional plastic bottles.
Innovative Excellence at Nature’s Soy
The facility housing our filler is newly constructed and designed to support both product preparation and packaging. It places a strong emphasis on quality and sanitary control to ensure impeccable standards for the end consumer. Constantly engaged in research and development, the company sets itself apart by offering innovative products flavored or enriched with algae and other nutrients and conveniently packaged to provide quick yet high-quality cooking solutions.
The product range has expanded to include rice pasta and other fresh “ready-to-eat” items under the “Sunkee” brand, available in restaurants and supermarkets. Nature’s Soy also collaborates with other food companies, producing sauces and condiments for their brands, showcasing the company’s reliability and professionalism.
Enhancing Plant-Based Beverage Packaging with Gable Top Cartons
The increasing adoption of Gable Top cartons for plant-based beverages is prompting more manufacturers to diversify their packaging choices, moving away from traditional aseptic brick packs. These cartons offer distinct advantages, particularly in the plant-based sector, as they are perceived by consumers as premium and fresh. This perception, driven by the iconic “roof on top” design and the association with chilled products, can lead to higher profit margins.
Moreover, Gable Top cartons improve production efficiency by allowing manufacturers to handle various volumes with the same machinery. The quicker changeover process further enhances productivity. Not only has Nature’s Soy benefited from this approach, but companies like Mona Sojaland and Alpro have also successfully partnered with Galdi to develop effective packaging solutions using these cartons.
With extensive experience, Galdi provides comprehensive support to manufacturers new to Gable Top cartons. This includes sharing expertise in packaging, offering strategic advice, and assisting in the development of cold chain management systems. Our services ensure safe production by managing critical points to prevent contamination, supporting HACCP procedures, conducting sensory testing, and providing food safety training.
