Japan-based Morinaga Group has developed a world-first technology that prevents yoghurt from sticking to the pot lid.
This new technology has been developed in cooperation with Japanese Toyo Aluminium and is based on a packaging technology called 'Toyal Lotus'.
According to asia.nikkei.com, the structure of the material's surface has been adapted and inspired by the lotus leaf, which is known for repelling water and always remaining dry and clean.
Currently the new non-adhesion technology is used with leading Japanese yoghurt brand Meiji Bulgaria, but other Japanese dairy producers recently started using the same technology as well.
