Alcan chosen by Van Mark Food

Alcan Packaging has been chosen to make the packaging for Van Mark Food's Tesco Finest Vegetable Crisps.

The Cumbria-based company was involved from the design stage and has a long-standing relationship with Van Mark Food.

The pack was printed using eight-colour flexo printing onto metalised OPP laminate. Matt lacquer coating was also used.

Michael Hoban, UK sales director at Alcan Packaging, said: “Achieving a premium look for the pack was the overall driver for the project. However, other elements remained critical, such as product protection and the ability to retain product freshness.”

Alcan Packaging is a division of Rio Tinto Alcan.
