Meat & Poultry Packaging
Tight fit to the cut, puncture resistance and reliable sealing.
Tight fit to the cut, puncture resistance and reliable sealing.
Fresh cuts, bone-in products, poultry and processed meat each put different demands on the film. These are the points we check first.
Film that follows the product closely avoids loose film and liquid pockets and keeps the pack neat.
Bones, sharp edges and frozen corners press on the film, so structure and thickness must match the product.
Fat, blood or moisture in the seal area must not stop a clean, continuous seal on your machine.
The film has to stay tough and flexible at the storage temperature you plan, frozen included.
Four product families cover most fresh, bone-in and processed meat and poultry packs. Start with the one closest to your packing method.
Shrinks tightly around fresh, bone-in and processed cuts after vacuum, for a close fit and a neat pack.
Skin film follows portioned meat and poultry on a tray and holds the product in place for display.
Formed bottom and lidding webs for sausages, portions and processed meat on thermoform-fill-seal lines.
PA/PE, high-barrier and embossed bags for chamber or external vacuum machines, chilled or frozen.
A first recommendation: the final structure, thickness and format are confirmed with samples tested on your packing machine.
Seven details are enough for a first proposal. If you do not know an answer yet, just write "Not sure": our engineers will help you work it out, and samples confirm the choice on your machine.
What you pack: cut, portion or whole bird, bone-in or boneless

Chamber machines and external suction sealers need different bags.
