Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging for pet food kibble that maintains the characteristics of the food while being made of a 100% mono-material.
  • Semi-moist and/or dry pet food kibble or semi-moist and/or dry pet snacks are packaged in containers that ensure food preserving, transportation and storage. These packages maintain ideal humidity percentage and quality of the semi-moist and/or dry pet food kibble or semi-moist and/or dry pet snacks on long term, while they are made of food-safe materials. Moreover, semi-moist and/or dry pet food kibble or semi-moist and/or dry pet snacks packages, often possess resealing or reclosing means in order to maintain the quality of the food inside, after they were opened. In addition, semi-moist and/or dry pet food kibble or semi-moist and/or dry pet snacks packages may contain features that allow the dispense of the kibbles from the package in a convenient manner.
  • paper and carton or cardboard made thereof are 100% recyclable, these materials are not suitable for semi-moist and/or dry pet food kibble or semi-moist and/or dry pet snacks packages having the shortcoming of not properly preserving the food on long term. Laminating the interior of paper-based boxes with a plastic polymer material could solve this issue, but these type of boxes would not be 100% recyclable.
