Carton Service CSI, a provider of packaging solutions for consumer goods, food, and pharmaceutical industries, has obtained four new patents for sustainable paperboard packaging.
This addition broadens the company’s existing array of distinctive technologies focused on promoting sustainability in packaging.
The company now possesses a total of four design patents and three utility patents in the US, in addition to three design patents each in Mexico and Canada.
Furthermore, the company said, two additional US patents are in the pipeline, showcasing Carton Service’s dedication to innovation within the packaging sector.
These recent patents concentrate on eco-friendly paperboard packaging, especially gable top and direct contact packaging, which are frequently difficult to source and produce.
The latest designs incorporate grippable sections on two sides of the carton, enhancing convenience for consumers.
Another recent development from Carton Service is a completely carton-based solution without a cap, intended for unconventional products such as soap, coffee creamers, water, and eggs.
This packaging format seeks to minimise dependence on nonrenewable resources by utilising a perforated opening for dispensing contents rather than a plastic cap.
Carton Service CSI president Reid Lederer said: “We pursued these patents to help customers fast-track their sustainable packaging projects. These off-the-shelf packaging solutions can help customers get to market faster.
“We wanted to create packaging brands that would communicate to liquid food, health and beauty customers that there are more sustainable packaging choices available.
“We intend to be sustainability packaging leaders and innovators into our next generation of Carton Service.”
