US-based recyclable food tray manufacturer Clearly Clean Products has said it is acquiring an 80,000ft2 thermoforming plant in Frackville, Pennsylvania.

The Frackville plant will expand the company’s North American footprint by bringing its total number of locations to seven.

Clearly Clean Products is planning to produce 100% recyclable, smooth-edged roll over-wrap trays and vacuum-sealed packaging (VSP) trays, as well as recyclable modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) trays.

According to the firm, its recyclable food trays are suitable for meat, poultry, seafood, produce, and deli, and can be customised in terms of size, shape, and colour.

The company expects to create approximately 25 jobs at this facility, as well as increase the staff to more than 125 in the region when it further expands its line operations.

Clearly Clean Products managing partner Millard Wallace said: “We are excited that companies are realising the benefits of Clearly Clean’s patented smooth-edged, recyclable trays, which are three times the strength of polystyrene, are environmentally friendly, and help mitigate leakers.
