“These products are a type of completely sterile packaging for food, medicine, and cosmetics for long-term storage without preservatives and at room temperature,” said Houman Mortezayian, the managing director of the knowledge-based company.

Noting that a study conducted in the European Union in 2014 showed that 67% of liver and digestive problems are caused by preservatives added to food, he said, “Therefore, it was decided to remove preservatives and use a packaging that can preserve organic materials.”

“This packaging is used for all food industries, including tomato paste, sauces, various concentrates, purees, jellies, cosmetics, water, alcohol, acidic substances, and various liquids and oils, and the pharmaceutical products. These bags are completely impermeable and are the best alternative to old packaging,” Mortezayian said.

“These packaging envelopes are home-made and produced with 100% Iranian raw materials,” he underlined.

Aseptic and spout pouches are a type of high-barrier flexible packaging that sterilizes both the product and the pouch separately, then fills and seals them in a sterile environment to provide long-term shelf life without refrigeration. 

Spout pouches are a design feature where a plastic spout is integrated into the pouch, offering a convenient, mess-free, and leak-proof way to dispense products like soups, juices, sauces, and cosmetics. 

Aseptic spout pouches combine these technologies to create a highly hygienic and convenient solution for perishable liquids and other products across the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and personal care industries.
