Live demonstrations will be held by the team of Specialty America at Booth 10138, Lakeside Center, McCormick Place, Chicago, IL.

Specialty America to Participate in NRA 2024 Tradeshow well known in HoReCa Industry

Specialty understands the significance of preserving familiar cling and softness experiences for chefs and kitchen staff. Therefore, the films are meticulously designed to offer a similar functional experience to operators without jeopardizing the environmental benefits.

Chefs and Buyers from the Hospitality Industry are invited to visit the booth and experience the growth journey of the Forvara Foodservice Films in the North American Market. Forvara Foodservice films are listed on following e-commerce platforms, offering convenient purchasing options for businesses nationwide:

  1. US Foods Direct
  2. Supplies on the Fly
  3. Gordon Foodservice – Extended Product Offering
  4. Amazon
Forvara Foodservice Films is now available on Supplies on the Fly, US Foods Direct, Amazon, Gordon Foodservice - Extended Product Offering

They have successfully passed all the regulatory, functional, and safety requirements laid down by the respective platforms and are easily available across the United States of America.


No BPA, plasticizers or stabilizers:
These films have gained recognition because they do not contain plasticizers, stabilizers, or heavy metals. The nature of the composition of these films makes them health-safe and recycle-ready. These films provide advanced cling performance, optimum softness, and crystal-clear transparency. Therefore, users would hardly find any difference while using the films from functional point of view.

Forvara Foodservice Films characteristics

Odorless and Tasteless:
Forvara Food Wraps are designed to be odorless and tasteless which is achieved with the help of a proprietary process and a specially engineered combination of food-grade Polyethylene resins. Therefore, these films do not interfere with the original taste and aroma of the ingredients being wrapped.

Downgauging, Microwave Safe, Freezer Safe:
Due to the low density & thinning of Polyethylene, Commercial kitchen establishments can reduce the plastic consumption. Less plastic consumption helps reduce the carbon footprint of the organization.

Polyethylene based Forvara Food Wraps have the appropriate heat resistance and puncture resistance that are necessary for various cooking applications like baking, freezing, etc. while reducing waste and enhancing kitchen efficiency.

Regulatory Compliance for Food Contact:
Forvara Foodservice Films comply with and exceed the Food Contact regulations of FDA-21 CFR 177.1520. Kosher certified raw materials are utilized in the manufacturing of the Foodservice Films at the BRCGS-certified manufacturing facility. These films do not contain any chemicals from the California Prop. 65 list of harmful chemicals.

Ergonomic & thoughtful Packaging Design:
These films are offered in robust packaging with two-way moving Slide Cutter placed on the top of the carton to enable smooth cutting of the film. The inherent characteristics of the Films help them to stick to the slide cutter’s top edges, helping to easily find the film for next use. Anti-Skid Pads do not allow packaging to move while unwrapping the roll.

Forvara Foodservice Films comes with the Sliding Cutter

“In response to the increasing demand from foodservice operators, Specialty Group of Companies has partnered with multiple well-known platforms to make the Non-PVC Forvara Foodservice Films available to the HoReCa industry. We are happy to learn that ecologically conscious culinary companies around the country are utilizing Forvara Foodservice Films.” Said Mr. Shantanu Deshpande, President of Specialty America, Inc.

Specialty Polyfilms participation in Interpack 2023, product showcase Forvara Meat & Fresh Produce Films

Forvara Meat Wrap Films are better alternative to the traditional meat wrapping (PVC) films with plasticizers, stabilizers or any other chemicals harmful to human health. The film provides excellent breathability due to higher oxygen transmission rate and optimum water vapour transmission rate, which helps in preventing meat products from spoiling thus helping the meat to be red and fresh for longer durations. High elasticity and puncture-resistance of the films allows easy wrapping around the protruding bones and keep the films wrinkle free. This ensures that the meat product remain intact during transportation and storage.

Forvara Brand for Food Wrapping Film

Forvara Non-PVC Fresh Produce, Mushroom, Cheese Films are designed to protect fresh produce like veggies, fruits, sprouts, Mushrooms, cheese respectively during transportation & storage. These films include a unique micro-perforation that allows for optimal respiration of fresh produce while retaining the essential levels of water vapour transfer rates, which allows produce to stay fresher for longer durations.

Specialty Polyfilms is a strong proponent of the ideology that the HoReCa industry should use Catering Films that are free from plasticizers or stabilizers because these chemicals can potentially pose health risks to consumers & the users when these films come into contact with food, which can negatively impact the reputation of the HoReCa Business and the overall industry. Polyethylene-based Forvara Catering/Foodservice films have gained popularity due to their numerous benefits. Due to their lower density and thinning compared to traditional PVC-based Catering /Foodservice films, these films provide plastic reduction and thus save money. Due to its optimum cling, Forvara Foodservice/Catering Films allows wrapping around catering trays and containers made of steel, glass, ceramics, polycarbonate, or any other plastic, making it ideal for commercial kitchens and foodservice operations.

“Our recent success is due to the fact that our portfolio of films is uniquely aligned with the current and pressing needs of increasing shelf life to reduce food waste, reduce plastic waste and recyclability in the meat, fresh produce, mushroom, Culinary and retail industry. We understand that each industry has its own set of challenges and requirements, and we have worked hard to develop products that can address these specific needs.” said Mr. Shantanu Deshpande, Marketing Director at Specialty Polyfilms.

Is PVC The New Tobacco ?

As many of you already know, cigarette smoke contains substantial amount of harmful chemicals. Some of these chemicals are called carcinogens, which means cancer-causing chemicals. Cigarette smoke contains over thirty notable carcinogens.

Did you know that PVC is made from vinyl chloride, which is listed as a human carcinogen, in the Fourteenth Report on Carcinogens published by the National Toxicology Program! ! PVC generally also contains dioxins, phthalates, and BPA, which are suspected to be endocrine disruptors, which are chemicals that may interfere with the production or activity of hormones in the human endocrine system.

Research over the last fifty years – on animals and shows that vinyl chloride in PVC factories – causes a rare cancer of the liver called Angiosarcoma. This condition could result from either small dosages over a long period of time (such as with the factory workers) or one large dose in a small amount of time (as with testing animals). Cigarette smoke contains 5.6 to 27 nanograms of vinyl chloride per cigarette. This amount is not immediately harmful, but over time it can cause serious damage to the liver. PVC exposure is higher than these figures. Cancer is a major public health problem worldwide and it is the second leading cause of death in the United States! 

Could the usage of PVC around us be actually affecting our health? 


U. S. National Library of Medicine says, ‘Yes’. In the article, Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) on their website, they mention that you can be exposed to PVC if you have PVC pipes, vinyl flooring, or other consumer products made with PVC. Exposure may occur through food packaging and containers or “shrink-wrapped” packages.

Don’t you worry, there are many solutions which are present in the market today, but as smokers don’t throw away their cigarettes, in the same way industry-men have been stuck with PVC for too long now.

But it’s time to change.
And the change has already started !

PVC Like Polyethylene (PVCL PE) Meat Wrap Films
Comparision Between PVC Films and Innovative PVC Like Polyethylene Films

Rightly so, worldwide, PVC has been banned in many products such as children’s toys, stationery materials, etc. In several European countries, the usage of PVC as food packaging material has been banned. However, we don’t know how long it will take for USA to ban it, or if would only come as a warning signal. But, at least we have a choice of our own. So why choose cancer? Choose PE-based Forvara® Meat wrap instead of PVC.

PE films are 100% recyclable, Eco- friendly, BPA free, do not contain any plasticizers, stabilizers, phthalates or carcinogenic elements. We also need to note that, although in some cases cancer is curable but the impact of PVC causes irreparable damage to the environment as PVC can never be recycled completely. Moreover, If it’s burnt, it releases dioxin, a toxic element, which further degrades our environment. Every time you purchase a PVC product you not only endanger yourself, you endanger the whole planet.
