Over 100 years old and still cutting-edge - our Alufoilman. The man is a protective type, the complete barrier against light, gases and moisture of aluminium foil is the main reason for its use in flexible laminates for food, beverage and technical applications, yet it provides perfect protection and preserves the flavour and product properties.

Kick-off for this year's GLAFCO A big thank you goes to our sponsor, Assan Alüminyum. The participants of GLAFCO, currently taking place in Istanbul, had the opportunity to visit the plant and witness the aluminium foil rolling process firsthand - an experience that truly brought them into the heart of the action. A warm welcome and perfect organisation were also provided. All participants felt comfortable and gained valuable perspectives. A great start to the upcoming conference days, which we are equally excited about!

Recycling and social responsibility Aluminium is fully recyclable without any loss of quality, reducing the need for primary aluminium. Recycling aluminium foil saves significant energy, requiring up to 95% less energy than producing new metal. The efficiency of national packaging collection schemes influences the recycling rate, which is above 60% for aluminium packaging in Europe. Learn more about here 👇 https://lnkd.in/eY-5pDuQ

Over 100 years old and still cutting-edge - our Alufoilman. He is lighter than he looks, because aluminium foil offers full barrier protection even at very low thicknesses and so packaging, for example, can be made extremely lightweight.

Product protection - reducing food waste Aluminum foil's unique properties, such as its barrier effect, conductivity, and reflectivity, protect food, reduce energy use, and extend shelf life. This minimizes food waste, conserving resources and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. GLAFRI supports the Save Food initiative to combat global food waste.
