Cloud Packaging Systems (a Ryt-way Company) and MonoSol have pooled their experts resources to showcase a full system for packaging food products in edible, water soluble film packets at the Chicago Pack Expo in October.
Cloud and MonoSol have worked together for decades creating systems for water soluble packets,and the latest development utilizes MonoSol's new Vivos Edible Delivery System which features an edible, water soluble film.
Vivos film, composed of a proprietary blend of food grade ingredients, is transparent and has no smell/taste when consumed. It offers good oxygen barrier properties and robust mechanical properties that enable real-world usage with a variety of food products and dry beverage mixes.
Vivos is designed with specific characteristics to enable its use on the Hydroforma. Its potential users can expect a rapid and successful development cycle in putting the new film into operation, said the company.
Pouches engineered from Vivos films disappear and release their contents when exposed to hot/cold liquid and the dissolved film can then be consumed along with the food.
