CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ProAmpac, a leader in flexible packaging and material science, has launched its latest sustainable technology in Europe - ProActive Recyclable FibreSculpt. This high-barrier fiber-based solution is engineered for thermoforming applications suitable for various products, including chilled cooked meats, cold cuts, sliced cheese, and fish.
