Get acquainted with latest innovation by Kwik Lok at Potato Expo

The latest innovation by Kwik Lok, Enviro-Lok, is a cutting-edge polypropylene bag closure designed to keep products safe, fresh, and environmentally conscious. This solution will take center stage at Potato Expo on January 10-11 (Austin, Texas, USA).

With 34% less plastic usage than the standard Kwik Lok closure, Enviro-Lok contributes to a reduction of 67% in water usage and 44% less carbon emissions. Remarkably, Enviro-Lok seamlessly integrates into your current Kwik Lok machines, making it an eco-friendly choice without compromising efficiency.

One of the standout features of Enviro-Lok is the option for ultrasonic welded labels, exclusive to this innovation. These labels serve multiple purposes, from branding and tracking to traceability. Crafted from the same recyclable material as Enviro-Lok, the ultrasonic weld technology eliminates sticky adhesives, enhancing recyclability and aligning with the principles of a circular economy.

According to Viktoria Pakhnyuk, Ph.D., Sustainable Product Development Manager at Kwik Lok, Enviro-Lok helps support a circular economy. She states that Enviro-Lok makes it easier for its customers and consumers to embrace sustainability. She adds that Kwik Lok is committed to investing in materials science for packaging that not only preserves food freshness but also supports reusability.
