We all know that it’s time of healthy products: without any preservatives and artificial additives. It’s obvious. But now consumer wants something more: food must be healthy and tasty. So, here comes the conscious and sophisticated recipient who does not want to give up either the taste or the nutritional value.

Did you know that dried fruits are among the oldest preserved foods? They are said to have originated in the Arabian regions in Southwestern Asia. Whether as a snack between meals or as a topping on various dishes, dried fruit adds creativity to the kitchen. Another advantage: The gentle dehydration process prevents the loss of nutrients and preserves quality consistency.

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations estimates that, each year, one-third of all food produced for human consumption in the world (around 1.3 billion tonnes) is lost or wasted. This includes 45% of all fruit and vegetables! Every year, consumers in rich countries waste 222 million tonnes of food – it means that every European throws away 95 kg.

We finished the year 2017 with an excellent result: we produced 750,000 km of EL-ZIP® Press to Close Zippers. Appreciating our clients’ and partners’ loyalty and trust, we can guarantee the constant development of our products and technical solutions.
