Smart Earth, a company committed to providing high-quality nutrition for pets, has just launched its first retail product for end consumers in the Chilean market: Camelina Oil in SIG CloverCap pouches. The product, designed as a natural omega-3 supplement for dogs, comes in a convenient 90-gram size and marks a milestone as the first pet food product packaged in a SIG CloverCap pouch in South America.

This year, SIG celebrates the 70th anniversary of the invention of bag-in-box, a groundbreaking innovation that has become a core part of the company's packaging portfolio. Originally developed in 1955 by American chemist, William R. Scholle, as a safer, less expensive, and more convenient solution for transporting and storing industrial liquids, bag-in-box quickly gained traction across multiple industries, particularly food and beverage. Following the acquisition of Scholle IPN in 2022, bag-in-box has evolved into a fully integrated packaging system offering for SIG.
