Foil lidding reduces consumer frustration

Replacing heavy-gauge foil found in most yogurt lids today, Calypso is a multilayered material structure.

Calypso foil lidding has greater than twice the tear resistance, resulting in a lid that peels perfectly in one piece.

According to Mintel, 74% of consumers want a package that is easy to open. Today, many yogurt customers have confirmed that existing foil lids have major limitations: they are difficult to open; susceptible to tearing, shredding, puncturing; and even cut consumers, explains Dorian Daniels, marketing manager, Bemis Company.

“In response, Bemis has introduced Calypso foil lidding. It has greater than twice the tear resistance, resulting in a lid that peels perfectly in one piece, every time. It also has 50% greater puncture strength than traditional Bemis foil lidding, which helps protect product throughout its life. Additionally, Calypso’s softer material and edges reduce the risk for cuts to both consumers and manufacturing workers,” says Daniels.
