Sprout Organic Baby Food Pouch - Packaging Innovation

ATTRIBUTES

SAFETY

with Flexible Materials

Pouch packaging has rounded corners and won't shatter or chip.

PROTECTION

from the Elements

Food is protected from air and light, which can affect color, flavor and nutrients.

FOOD QUALITY

with Low Temperatures and Short Cooking Time

Cooking and preserving with lower temperatures for less time, means food retains more flavor than food cooked in rigid packaging.

LIGHTWEIGHT

for Caretakers on the Move

Whether at home or taken on the day's adventures, Sprout's lightweight pouch won't weigh you down, or concern you with breakage.

TERRACYCLE

Outsmart Waste

We believe in being responsible for the material we create, and that is why Sprout has partnered with Terracycle, the leader in repurposing used packaging, to enable you to send in baby food pouches at no cost to their UpCycling program, plus earn money for something you personally care about.

TerraCycle makes affordable, eco-friendly products from a wide range of different non-recyclable waste materials. With over 50 products available at major retailers like Walmart, Target, The Home Depot, OfficeMax, Petco and Whole Foods Market, TerraCycle is one of the fastest growing eco-friendly manufacturers in the world. Our hope is to eliminate the idea of waste by finding innovative, unique uses for materials others deem garbage.

Packaging parts

Simple steps to help make a difference

TOP TEAR NOTCH

New packaging creates a straighter tear, for more material to grab and easier opening.

RE-SEALABLE ZIPPER

At the top of the packaging of our Intermediate and Advanced stages is a zipper, which can be closed when saving an unused portion. Once opened, remaining product must be stored in the refrigerator.

MATERIALS

Packaging is made in BPA-free layers. The innermost layer (next to the food) is polypropylene. There is an internal foil layer providing light and oxygen protection without food contact. The image and text printing is done on the inside of the outer layer.

GUSSET SHAPE

Pouch is shaped a bit like a flat pyramid from the outside, but the bottom is curved on the inside. When you open the pouch and push down the bottom, it rounds out like a narrow bowl, for ease in spooning out product.
