2012

Polytainers’ undergoes a rebrand and unveils a new logo and tagline (Success You See).

The conversion of printing machines from pin bar to magnetic plates commences and PolyTone_TMHigh Definition (PT-HD) is introduced to the market.

Up until 2012, we used film to expose an image onto plate material and produced plates for production. We are now able to digitally expose the images directly onto plates resulting in improved quality and productivity.

We are also able to create sharper images with the removal of negatives.

Through our proprietary digital workflow pre-press process (PT-HD), we are able to create sharp, high quality images enhanced by a craftsman approach.

Two product innovations launched in 2012 including the IML Split or Two Compartment Cups for yogurt and the Wave Series (W) of 409 diameter IML cups.

The IML Split Cup enables processors to keep two sensitive products separate until the time of consumption.

The W Series of IML containers feature a labelled wave shape that conceals headspace on a clear container enabling customers to showcase product on the shelf. The Wave Series of IML Containers are available in a variety of sizes.

Marzetti was looking to refresh their line of veggie dips but also looking for packaging that would work on their existing filling systems. Our Wave Series containers provided all of the features Marzetti was looking for. The containers provided a transparent lower window that provided consumers the ability to see the product – an objective for Marzetti. As the container series came in a range of sizes, Marzetti was able to transition their entire line including dips and caramel sauce to Wave Series packaging.
