Both firms describe their new product as a clever and practical dispensing unit for the food service.
Aseptic carton pack specialist SIG Combibloc said that it allows food to be dispensed into accurate portions in a way “that is easy to handle, more hygienic, more cost-efficient and more environmentally friendly”.
The dispenser consists of a lidded box into which the carton pack is placed inside. Then the pump is inserted directly through the overcoated hole, opening the package.
According to the companies, with a simple pump action, the product is dispensed in precise amounts, with no mess. The product is safely and hygienically protected – there is no need to transfer the product into another container, the firms said. The dispenser yields up to 98 % product evacuation to minimize waste.
The dispensing unit has been developed for use with products that are used in cafes, coffee shops, bars, bistros and fast food restaurants, such as fruit purées, smoothie bases and cocktail preparations, flavoured syrups, and concentrates.
This is where SIG Combibloc and Server’s Smart Dispenser come into spotlight offering a practical and convenient dispensing solution for foodservice operators,” said Trisha Prodoehl, business development manager for Foodservice at SIG Combibloc North America.
“The new Smart Dispenser is a durable and reusable dispensing unit created by Server. It has been designed for food products that are available and sold in our aseptic carton pack combiblocMaxi.
“The Smart Dispenser is very easy to use and allows precise dispensing of products such as flavoured syrups or base mixes for smoothies and cocktails with every stroke. The use of the dispenser makes it easier and cost effective for restaurants to innovate their menus by offering new beverage creations.”
