Seafood Packaging
Leak prevention, cold chain and clear presentation.
Leak prevention, cold chain and clear presentation.
Fish and shellfish are moist, delicate and kept cold from processing to display. These are the points we check first.
Moist products and drip liquid need a clean seal and a pack that stays closed through handling.
Seafood is kept chilled or frozen, and the film must stay tough and sealed at those temperatures.
A clear, tight film shows colour and texture; skin packs hold fillets in place on the tray.
Shrimp, shellfish and whole fish can have sharp parts that call for puncture-resistant structures.
Four product families cover most chilled and frozen seafood packs. Start with the one closest to your packing method.
Holds fillets and shrimp tightly on the tray, limits movement and liquid, and shows the product clearly.
Pre-made vacuum bags for fillets, shellfish and frozen seafood; embossed versions for external sealers.
Formed packs for portioned or processed seafood on automatic thermoforming lines.
Close-fitting packs for whole fish and larger pieces, for a tidy wrap and stable handling in transport.
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: fillets, whole fish, shrimp or shellfish, raw or cooked
Chilled or frozen, and how the packs are distributed
Any cooking, pasteurisation or reheating after packing, or none
Machine type or model, or packed by hand
Bag or web dimensions, and thickness if known
Plain or printed, number of colours, artwork
Estimated quantity per order or per month
Chamber machines and external suction sealers need different bags.
