“Our partnership is well along the path of collaborative innovation,” mentioned Tucker, referring to the Collaborative Innovation process in which the ProAmpac development teams work alongside customer counterparts to accelerate packaging advances.

The pouch will be fully recyclable when new advanced recyclable solutions are introduced into many European markets.

We look forward to working with them for many years to come,” Dore said. C&D Foods is one of the largest private label petfood manufacturers in Europe.
