Amcor has introduced a new polypropylene dip cup and lidding range for foodservice applications, covering condiments, dressings and sauces.
The new PP Revolution line is intended to support a shift away from polystyrene while retaining existing operational and product requirements.

The range works with current filling equipment, allowing manufacturers to adopt the format without changing production systems.
The cups provide a stronger barrier than conventional products and can be paired with the company’s EZ Peel lidding range, including metallised, foil and AmPrima recycle-ready materials.
The array comes in ten sizes, from 0.5oz to 2.0oz, with clear, white opaque and custom colour options.
The PP dip cup products are designed for recyclability.
Select sizes have been rated “Preferred” under the APR Design Guide for Size Sorting Potential. This assessment may help support recyclability claims and possible Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) fee benefits while select sizes are also available for How2Recycle prequalification.
The launch adds to Amcor’s wider film packaging offering, which also includes PET Revolution recycle-ready barrier cup stock.
Amcor Flexibles North America vice-president Kevin Glaser commented: “Today’s consumers expect packaging that’s easy to use, locks in freshness and is aligned with their sustainability values.
“PP Revolution was designed to elevate the dip cup experience, from easy open lidding and portion-appropriate sizes to premium aesthetics, while helping brands move forward with recycle-ready packaging.”
Earlier this month, Amcor’s Asia Pacific Innovation Center laboratory received accreditation from the China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment.
