The objective of the deal with RPC Superfos (injection moulding and thermoforming), RPC Bebo (thermoforming) and RPC Kambo (injection moulding and blow moulding) is to deliver increased efficiency, stability and superior packaging product development for an optimal end-user experience.
The agreement will allow TINE to create and develop solutions involving various production methods and materials. In light of this, a medium-term agreement is ideal, as it ensures continuity, stability and efficiency, for instance regarding tool making.
“Our goal is to choose the right type of plastic material for the packaging of our products and to use an optimal amount of virgin material,” continues Sindre W. Møgster-Walthinsen. “We look forward to innovative solutions with oxygen and light barrier protection consisting of one single type of material. In future, plastic packaging must be adapted for a circular economy with increased re-cycling and re-use.
TINE has already been working with RPC Superfos, RPC Bebo and RPC Kambo for some time, and is very pleased with the high level of customer service and short response time to solve any issue that may arise regarding quality or delivery. Inevitably, the collaboration and dialogue between packaging provider and filler become more harmonised within a three-year time frame, as this allows both parties to get to know each other’s working methods and internal processes.
