The importance of aluminium foil in aseptic carton packaging

The aseptic carton packaging is multilayer and mainly made of paperboard. The other materials used are polyethylene - which protects the contents from external humidity - and a very thin layer of aluminium, which acts as a barrier for the product against external agents such as bacteria, odors, oxygen and light, preventing oxidation and light damage, while preserving the organoleptic properties of the liquid at room temperature, without the need for refrigeration.

About ASI

The Aluminium Stewardship Initiative is a not-for-profit standard setting and certification organisation for the aluminium value chain. The ASI Performance Standard defines different environmental, social and governance principles and criteria, with the aim to address sustainability issues in the aluminium value chain and to support responsible supply chains.
