HANSPORT, NS – Red Sun Farms’ Earthcycle™ top sealable pint, developed by Canada-based CKF Inc., has been named as one of the finalists competing for the PMA Impact Award for Packaging Excellence.

CFK’s Earthcycle™ top sealable pint is being recognized for its tamper resistant packaging and usage of environmentally responsible materials.

Brad Dennis, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for CKF, congratulated the Red Sun team for their efforts and the award nomination, explaining that it has been a tremendous opportunity working with them.

“We are in active development now with a range of top seal designs for the fresh produce industry, but it all started with our work with Red Sun,” said Dennis.

Unique to the Earthcycle™ top sealable pint is its moulded pulp base, which reduces plastic while using materials that are recyclable, compostable, and renewable. The Earthcycle™ base with a top seal film uses 90 percent less plastic than a traditional clamshell, requires 22 percent less fossil fuel to develop, and generates 53 percent less GHG emissions, according to a press release.
