Sirane

Sirane is an innovative food packaging development-to-manufacture company, with expertise in absorbency and material science. They specialize in bags and pouches, absorbent products, shelf-life extension and dual-ovenable products. Their range of compostable, recyclable and sustainable packaging solutions is called Earth Packaging.

Compostable food packaging from Sirane includes breathable bags and films for extending the life of fresh produce. Sira-Flex Resolve is a natural biopolymer which can be made into bags or films, and which can extend shelf-life of products by many days. Other compostable products include absorbent pads for meat, poultry, seafood and fruit. Many of their Dri-Fresh absorbent products can be offered in a compostable form.

Earthpouch is claimed to be an industry first food packaging solution made from a paper with a 100% plastic free heat-sealable coating which is then formed into a preformed stand-up pouch which provides total food security for dry and moist food products. This pouch is easily recyclable as part of the paper stream. They also offer Earthfilm, the same material but for flow-wrap operations. A BARRIER version is now available – with options including stand-up pouch, bag and flow-wrap film.

Sirane’s plastic-free packaging ‘Earthpouch’ won a top prize at the 2018 UK Packaging Awards – taking first place in the Resource Efficient Pack of the Year category.
