Hi, I'm Jonas Kristensson. I'm with Griner Packaging. We're very excited to be here at the Pack Expo in Chicago. I'm going to tell you a little bit about our new product lines.

So first is our new K3 R100, which is the first fully separable cup product in the U. S. market. It allows customers to essentially put this through the recycling stream. And during the crushing process in the recycling stream, the paper and the cap will be separated and go into separate waste streams. Additionally, K3 provides a very low plastic footprint compared to traditional cups and we stabilize the cap by leveraging on the paper aspect in the cap itself. We're excited to launch this in the US.

It will be available in 2025. So K3 R100 is perfect for the food and the dairy market and you can fill products such as hummus and other food products that work in the marketplace.
