Product Innovation – the DETO CUP
CERTIFIED RECYCLABILITY
The DETO Cup is our latest packaging innovation: It combines all the well-known advantages of the Desto Cup Slim, such as reduced plastic usage thanks to a lightweight cup and maximum design flexibility through the cardboard banderole. The innovative DETO Cup goes a step further: its cardboard banderole is designed to automatically split open during disposal, without requiring any action from the end consumer.
With a certified recyclability rate of over 90%, the DETO Cup already meets the future requirements of the EU Packaging Directive.
Invisible coding
Digimarc – always one coding ahead
Digimarc is the name of the code that hides in the printed image like a watermark, invisible to the consumer. Only by means of a scanner (e.g. a mobile phone app) does it reveal its information (EAN code, advertising, recipes but also information for the recycling cycle). We have been successfully using Digimarc Code for Desto and direct printing cups since 2019.
PO-SLEEVE & SLEEVE PERFORATION
Recyclability improved
Optipack now also offers its customers PP cups with a sleeve made of polyolefin. We follow the logic of mono-material packaging for sleeved PP cups as well. Since both components (PP cup and PO sleeve) have comparable material compositions the entire packaging is classified as highly recyclable.
With the use of a sleeve perforation the consumer can easily separate the cup from the sleeve.
Desto O-Perforation
O for optimal – our patented tear perforation
Our new, patented perforation method is guaranteed to separate each banderole from a cup. Foolproof, consumer-friendly and in a single piece. In this way, the consumer can easily separate paper and plastic correctly and promote recycling.
Desto - Nature Look
Feels natural – Back Side Out Banderole
To give our Desto a more natural look we have simply turned the banderole upside down. We leave the smooth front side beautiful and print on the uncoated paper back instead. Thus we create the "Nature Look" with subtle colours. And the cup also impresses consumers on the shelf.
Haptic cup
The cup with the soft touch
By adding a special masterbatch, a silk-matt surface can be created on PP cups which stands out visibly from the usual smooth surfaces. Direct printing gives the cup a special look. In addition, the cup captivates with a pleasant feel.
Light protection cup
Our recipe for effective light protection
In a classic light protection structure, a black middle layer provides for grey looking cups. By adding a specially developed masterbatch, we create light protection properties in PS and PP cups, which hardly show any difference to conventional white cups and still protect your product perfectly against areas of visible light.
