Frigorífics Ferrer was officially certified as MSC / ASC chain of custody last August 2020, and two years later, the company has more than a dozen of references produced in its own factory or at the fishing origin. A growing selection of fish products packaged (mainly suitable for retail), which are presented with the guarantee of its "FERRER Frozen food you can trust" brand added to the MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) or ASC (Aquaculture Stewardship Council) value certifications (international organisms that regulate and guarantee sustainability of the fishing process, production and chain of custody of products).
FERRER, a family-owned company leader in frozen fish in Spain (with almost a century of history), renews itself once again and accomplishes the growing market trend towards sustainability and responsible consumption. These products elaborated on its own fabrics are in addition to more than 50 references which are already selling to the foodservice industry all of them with MSC or ASC guaranteed sustainability too: boneless fillets of sea bass, sea bream, dab, razor clams, prawns, as well as top sales such as hake, light-salted cod or cod salad (ready to eat) from Iceland.
Moreover, the company reveals that it is not only working on sustainability of the fishing products but is also reformulating most of their packaging and materials with the objective of transform them in terms of sustainability and recyclability.
Gracias a esta medida, la compañía eliminará 48 toneladas de plástico cada año, y convertirá el resto de toneladas extras en 100% reciclables.
FERRER, especializada en la elaboración y distribución de pescado fresco y congelado con más de 90 años de historia, continúa con su apuesta por el cuidado y respeto por el medio ambiente renovando los materiales de todos sus envases en congelado con el firme propósito de liderar el mercado en este aspecto y reducir al máximo el impacto medioambiental.
Tras un largo proyecto de I+D de la mano de expertos líderes en materiales, la empresa ha lanzado al mercado su icónico envase skinpack con una base de plástico mono material 100% PET, elaborada con hasta un 30% de plástico reciclados. Esta base, además, es totalmente reciclable contribuyendo así a fomentar la economía circular y la sostenibilidad.
El packaging presenta un diseño paper-like muy atractivo y novedoso visualmente, hecho a base de tintas superficiales, que ha sido diseñado y personalizado en exclusiva para Ferrer. Para un óptimo reciclaje, el envase cuenta además con un sistema abrefácil que facilita la separación de la base del film superior por parte del consumidor (éste aún no reciclable).
Con esta innovación, Ferrer responde a la demanda creciente de los consumidores que reclaman compromiso a las empresas para hacer frente al problema del excedente de plástico a nivel mundial. Esta medida implicará la reducción de hasta un 18% de plástico y, en consecuencia, la reciclabilidad de 48 toneladas de plástico anualmente.
Esta apuesta de Ferrer por materiales más sostenibles también incluye a corto plazo, la reformulación del plástico de sus bolsas o el cambio de materiales en los envases termoformados, isopacks y vacuums que engrosará sin duda estos datos.
Este replanteamiento y relanzamiento de la gama, está alineado con la estrategia de sostenibilidad de la compañía que ya cuenta, además, con certificación de pesca/acuicultura sostenible MSC o ASC.
