READY MEALS & CONVENIENCE FOODS
Ready-made meals and convenience food packaging required flexible films that have a high resistance to oil, vinegar and spices to prevent seal layer deterioration or delamination. Selection of the correct packaging materials is critical to ensure food quality is protected and packaging integrity is maintained.
We have a broad selection of top web lidding films that can seal to any tray type including aluminium, PP, PS, CPET, RPET, APET and PE. Seal strength can be adjusted from a lock seal to an easy peel solution. Many of our films are ovenable, microwavable and can withstand freezing or retort. These films have excellent hot tack strength and low temperature seal initiation that can be tailored to seal through contamination. This allows for high-speed packaging and results in fewer package failures. Our innovative Q-Steam lidding can even act as a self-venting pressure cooker to ensure vegetables or deserts remain moist and the product tastes as it should.
Our base web films compliment our top web offering with a range of PET, PVC, PP, PS and barrier solutions. Our barrier base webs are designed to maximise the impact of MAP or gas flushing so that the ingredients preserve their natural taste and colour whilst maintaining shelf-life. With their deep draw characteristics, our base webs are available in a variety of film gauges.
Flow wrap of form-fill-seal (FFS) films are widely used within the convenience food sector. We have specific films developed for pizza packaging using nylon based materials that have excellent heat resistance to minimise wrinkles to keep your product looking crisp. Our flow wrap film solutions are developed to deliver at high speeds with minimal downtime. Printed on our flexo or gravure presses in up to 10 colours we have a wealth of experience that will ensure that your designs are replicated closely to your designers original brief.
Pre made pouches or doypacks are increasingly being used for convenience foods as a product differentiator. Correct barrier selection is critical and we have a number of 2 to 9 layer laminate options available. The pack can incorporate a zip-lock or perforated tear for easy opening and can be printed to your design with a viewing window if desired.
Die-cut lids are another alternative and we have a wealth of experience in this sector. With a large range of choices available we can provide both PET and aluminium solutions in either heat seal lacquered or co-ex format. Hot fill or retort solutions are also available.
