Food Packaging Materials
|
All of our food packaging products are
manufactured in the ISO 9001 certified facilities.
Many of the products are designed to package food
items with the consideration of providing a long
non-refrigerated shelf life. |
The foils
for processed cheese are made with an FDA approved
heatsealable lacquer especially designed to be
compatible with modern packaging equipment. These
foils can be used for individually packed portions
or for large cheese circles. Whether used with the
two foil process (shell and lid) or the single
sheet process, the foils can provide a hermetic
seal for a long shelf life. This foil is available
in silver, gold and a wide variety of colors and
shades. The foils can also be gravure printed with
one to eight colors.

Our foil retort
pouches are made in a 3 or 4 ply (OPA reinforced)
structure to provide minimum packaging volume and
maximum protection against light, oxygen,
bacteria, viruses, and insects. These special
structures can be used for flat and stand-up
pouches. The pouches are designed for rigors of
the retort process and are therefore suitable for
a wide range of shelf stable, processed food
products. We can supply preformed pouches for fill
weight ranging from several ounces to 6 plus lbs.
All of our retortable pouch materials which are
made with a foil barrier are available as
preformed pouches or in roll form for pouch
production by the customer. The retort pouches can
be supplied unprinted or up to 8 color printed and
can be shaped to meet your special requirements.
Material structure: PETP/AL/(PA)PP

These
non-foil retortable pouches are made in a 3-ply
reinforced structure to provide minimum packaging
volume and maximum protection against light,
oxygen, bacteria, viruses, and insects. Made with
unique high barrier coatings, these retort pouches
are clear yet provide the protection required for
shelf stable processed foods and are suitable for
heating in a microwave oven. The non-foil
materials can be used for flat and stand-up retort
pouches and are designed for your shelf stable
processed food and processed food pouch products.
They are suitable for fill weight ranges from
several ounces to 6 plus lbs. The fully retortable
materials (special retort grade high barrier
materials are used) are available as preformed
retort pouches or in roll form for pouch
production by the customer. The retort pouches can
be supplied as a fully transparent pouch or up to
8-color printed. Material structure:
PETP/SiOx-PETP/(PA)PP or PETP/AlOx-PETP/(PA)PP.

Retortable pouch
foils consist of a top (lid) and cold formable
bottom (tray) material for production on
horizontal form-fill-seal (HFFS) machines. The
formability of these specialized provides all the
advantages of the flexible retort pouch with the
added advantages of automatic or manual horizontal
filling of both placeables (sausages, muscle meat,
etc.) and pumpable foodstuffs (stews, vegetables,
etc.). With this system the range of pouching
capabilities is greatly expanded by increasing the
type of shelf stable and processed food items that
can be easily placed in a pouch. HFFS pouches are
suitable for fill weight ranges from several
ounces to 8 lbs. The HFFS retort roll-stock can be
supplied plain or up to 7 color printed. Material
structure - top foil: PETP/AL/PP - bottom foil:
OPP/AL/OPA/PP.

These foil based
retort lidding structures are specially designed
for sealing to high barrier PP trays. The trays
can be shaped as bowls, cups or plates with
typical applications for shelf stable soups, stews
and prepared meals. Both a peelable and
non-peelable, version of the lidding are
manufactured. The non-peelable version requires a
knife to cut open the lidding. Material structure
- peelable: PETP/AL/PP coating – non-peelable:
PETP/AL/PP.
These non-foil based retort lidding structures
are manufactured with special retort grade high
barrier SiOx or AlOx barrier films and are
specially designed for sealing to high barrier PP
trays. The trays can be formed in almost any shape
such as bowls, cups or plates with typical
applications for shelf stable fruit cups, soups,
stews and prepared meals. Material structure -
PETP/ SiOx (AlOx) PET/PP
|
These lidding materials are
available in a wide range of structures for many
types of can applications.
Generally, our foil lidding is heatsealed to a
tinplate or aluminum ring on membrane heatseal
machines. These rings, with the easy peel end
already sealed are then seamed to the top of
tinplate or composite cans. Our lidding is always
easy to open with the non-retort version designed
for use with dry products (powdered milk, coffee,
chocolate, cereals, nuts, etc.) and the retortable
version designed for cooked products (fish,
prepared meals, pet food, etc.). Material
structure - non-retort lidding: Protective
lacquer/AL/Heatseal lacquer or Paper/AL/Heatseal
lacquer - retortable lidding: Protective
lacquer/AL/PP coating.

These special
treated aluminum container foils are made
specifically for formation into straight wall or
wrinkled wall cups or trays suitable for hot fill
or retort products. The container stock can be
colored or silver and is treated with special high
temperature protective lacquers and polypropylene
sealant films. Once formed into cups or trays they
can be sealed to high barrier polypropylene coated
foil or non-foil lidding. The formed aluminum
container stock can be used as cups or plates with
typical applications for soups, stews, prepared
meals or pet food trays and other applications
that require high temperature performance.
