Specialty America Announces Participation in The National Restaurant Association Show 2023, to showcase Health-Safe Forvara Foodservice Films

Specialty America participates in NRA 2023 | Forvara Foodservice Films

Specialty America, New Jersey May 12, 2023 – Specialty America, a wholly owned subsidiary of Specialty Polyfilms, will showcase its Non-PVC, Recycle-Ready Forvara Foodservice Films at The National Restaurant Association Show, May 20-23, 2023 : Booth No. 10513 – Lakeside Center, McCormick Place, Chicago, IL.

 

Forvara Foodservice Films, created especially for commercial kitchens and foodservice operations, is a safer substitute for conventional foodservice films that contain harmful plasticizers, stabilizers, or any other chemicals harmful to human health. The company’s comprehensive product line includes a range of food wrapping films like Foodservice Films, Meat & Fresh Produce Films.

 

Specialty America is a strong proponent of the ideology that the foodservice industry should use foodservice films that are free from plasticizers or stabilizers because these chemicals can potentially pose health risks to consumers when these films come in contact with food. This is significant as food safety is the core of the foodservice industry.

 

Polyethylene-based Forvara foodservice films have gained popularity due to their numerous benefits. These films reduce the amount of plastic used in foodservice packaging by being thinner and less dense than conventional PVC-based foodservice films, which results in financial savings. Due to its optimum cling, Forvara Foodservice Films allows wrapping around catering trays and containers made of steel, glass, ceramics, aluminium, polycarbonate, or any other plastic, making it ideal for commercial kitchens and foodservice operations.

 

“With more and more food management companies, distributors, industry players, and corporates showing preference towards Forvara foodservice films, our sales growth & growing acceptance are a testament to their ability to meet the evolving needs of the foodservice industry and to their versatility,” said Shantanu Deshpande, President, at Specialty America.

 

Polyethylene-based foodservice films have drawn special interest in the foodservice industry such as quick service restaurants, catering companies, corporate dining facilities, and food management facilities. They are also used in the healthcare industry for foodservice operations in hospitals, senior living care facilities, and nursing homes.

 

Specialty America (a subsidiary of Specialty Polyfilms) is committed to sustainability and environment protection, which is why Forvara Foodservice Films are manufactured to be recycle-ready. Forvara Foodservice Films are made from specially engineered combination of select food grade Polyethylene resins and comply to latest Food Contact regulations FDA-21 CFR 177.1520. Specialty America helps foodservice businesses reduce their environmental impact and meet their sustainability goals by providing recycle-ready Foodservice films that are environmentally friendly.

 

 “We’re pleased to welcome Specialty America as exhibitor at the 2023 Show,” said Tom Cindric, President of Winsight Exhibitions. “The annual event showcases the latest innovation in foodservice and continues to inspire menus, revitalize beverage programs, initiate equipment investments, and pioneer groundbreaking technology. We’re thrilled to bring start-ups together, niche brands and the biggest names in the industry to help foodservice professionals solve for today’s biggest challenges including workforce shortages, labor costs and overall operational efficiency.”

 

As an exhibitor at the NRA Show in Chicago, Illinois, Specialty America will have the opportunity to network with the foodservice professionals and disseminate cutting-edge trends, solutions, and knowledge for the coming year. The Show will bring together more than 51,000 foodservice professionals from 112 countries and over 900 product categories.
