Mayonnaise Packaging
Mayonnaise Packaging
Rigid containers or single-use packets have long been the norm for condiment and mayonnaise packaging, but flexible formats – such as IBC liners and bag-in-box – are quickly gaining traction, especially when it comes to bulk mayo packaging. Such solutions are designed to keep mayonnaise fresher for longer, maximize product evacuation, and offer sustainability and cost savings benefits to boot.
Read on for more information on IBC liners and bag-in-box formats for mayonnaise packaging and how CDF Corporation can help your brand make the switch to these flexible formats.
Advantages of IBC Liners for Mayonnaise Packaging
Industrial-sized IBC (intermediate bulk container) liners are ideal for transporting large volumes of product to production facilities for further processing or packaging. IBC liners are designed to help maximize product evacuation, streamline supply chain logistics, and promote a better overall solution for product safety and security.
At CDF, we offer several different types of IBC liners for mayonnaise and condiment packaging, such as Form-Fit top and bottom fill liners, pillow-shaped liners, and the Air-Assist liner. Contact us today for more information on our range of IBC liners.
Advantages of Bag-In-Box for Mayonnaise
As the name implies, bag-in-box packaging consists of two pieces. There’s the flexible bag that contains the product (often an IBC liner) and then an outer shell that works to protect it. Once commonly used to package boxed wine and other liquids, the bag-in-box format is also applicable for other products – like condiments and mayonnaise. And there are various benefits to this packaging format, including:
- Maximum discharge of product: Fitments and the flexible nature of the bag allow for maximum product discharge, minimizing food waste.
- Aseptic packaging options help extend shelf life and create products that are shelf-stable and don’t require refrigeration throughout the manufacturing process.
- Environmental benefits, which we’ll get to in the next section.

40% = 34.7 million tons
According to a Flexible Packaging Association (FPA) study, nearly 40% – or 34.7 million tons – of all produced foods are sent to landfill each year.
Environmental Impact
Both IBC liners and bag-in-box packaging formats aren’t just designed to extend product shelf life, maximize product discharge, and reduce food waste, but they’re also formats that help reduce packaging waste. Some IBC liners and pouches can even be recycled at certain store drop-off locations throughout the country. And the “box” portion of the bag-in-box packaging format can be fully recycled. What’s more, flexible formats tend to have a lower carbon footprint than conventional alternatives, making for a more overall sustainable alternative.
Cost Effectiveness
Cost savings is another key reason to look into moving condiment packaging to a more flexible packaging format. Since these formats tend to use less overall packaging to create, they tend to cost less than conventional condiment packaging formats. These cost savings can then be passed on to the customer.
