KG is now the first jam manufacturer to use rasselstein® tinplate made of CO2-reduced bluemint® steel for the twist-off closures of its NaturRein spreads.
The concept of NaturRein fruit spreads is based entirely on the idea of sustainability, both in the product and in the packaging. The twist-off closure produced by Pano Verschluss GmbH is PVC-free on the one hand and made of CO2-reduced tinplate from thyssenkrupp Rasselstein on the other hand.
The product itself has a natural recipe that uses only three classic ingredients, with no artificial flavors or preservatives added. At the same time, NaturRein is the first Zentis product line to be certified climate neutral.
