THROWAWAY LINES

ADDITIONAL sizes in the Alu-Chef range of catering foils and Clingorap and PVC range of film rolls give caterers widths up to 30cm and 45cm. Both can be used with Terinex dispensing systems, which fit either to a work surface or to a wall (with fixings provided). Both dispensing systems are supplied with two rolls of foil or film.

Alu-Chef foils come in three different versions (Kitchen Quality, Premier Quality and Heavy Duty). The company has also introduced 48 new sizes of flexible pouches for vacuum packing.

Pouches are made of a combination of nylon and polyethylene and are available clear or bespoke-printed for vacuum and modified atmosphere packaging applications in kitchens and retail establishments.

n Terinex has acquired Le Gem International, a UK-based maker of disposable products including plates and aluminium trays. Le Gem will continue to operate from its Leicester headquarters. Another recent acquisition is that of Flexivac, which produces flexible pouches used in a wide range of applications, including catering. Terinex has also gained exclusive European rights to distribute a range of coloured foils (in blue, green, red, yellow, gold and silver) made by the USA's Reynolds Food Service Products. The foils are especially suited to airline catering and packaged in pop-up packs.
