What is Claropac™?

Claropac™ is Farnell Packaging’s proprietary transparent packaging film for brands that need to display their products without compromising on sustainability. Most traditional recycle-ready packaging films are opaque, which forces producers to choose between product visibility and recyclability. Claropac™ eliminates that trade-off by delivering outstanding transparency in a monomaterial, recycle-ready format.

Claropac™ was developed as part of Farnell’s Full Picture Packaging approach, which ensures that sustainable packaging solutions also deliver on performance, brand presentation, and production efficiency — so moving to more sustainable materials doesn’t mean sacrificing what matters to your business.

Key Benefits

Outstanding Transparency

Claropac™ offers superior clarity that allows consumers to see exactly what they’re buying. For produce brands in particular, where freshness and visual quality drive purchase decisions, this is a significant advantage over standard recyclable films.

Recycle-Ready

Claropac™ is a monomaterial film that meets retailers’ recyclability standards and can be recycled at standard municipal recycling facilities. It helps brands demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and supports the circular economy by keeping plastic in use rather than in landfills.

Preserves Freshness

Claropac™ provides an effective barrier against moisture, oxygen, and other gases, helping to extend shelf life and maintain the quality of perishable products from packing through to the consumer.

Protects From Damage

Claropac™ is strong, flexible, and resistant to punctures and tears, making it easy to seal and pack products securely so they are protected during shipping and retail handling.

Applications

Claropac™ is ideal for produce brands and other consumer goods where product visibility is a priority. It is well-suited for packaging fresh fruits and vegetables, salads and leafy greens, herbs, and other perishable consumer products sold through retail channels where shelf presentation influences purchase decisions.

For seafood producers with similar transparency needs but additional demands around puncture resistance for sharp or spiky products, Farnell’s Glacier™ film is specifically engineered for that application.
