1. Thermoforming Packaging Process:
2. What considerations should I factor into material selection related to the product and the package?
Exposure to extreme high and low temperatures during storage, shipping and general use, puncture resistance, aroma barrier, UV protection, and other factors all come into play when selecting an appropriate film structure to protect your product. Please contact CJ PACK for more information related to your specific product. Our experts can recommend the best structure based on your entire packaging/distribution process.
*CJ PACK forming films are designed to meet today's demanding food packaging requirements. Our 9 to 11 layer co-extruded film technology provides excellent formability, outstanding gloss, and contact clarity characteristics, that seal well and cut easily. Flair's thermoforming films are ideal for packaging a variety of products including processed meats, frozen meats, cheeses, surimi, and frozen seafood.
CJ PACK's forming films are available in both high barrier and standard oxygen barrier structures, in gauges from 60 to 350 micron. Custom structures are available for enhanced breathabilty, peelability, and color.
Products requiring oxygen barrier properties include:
High barrier: bacon, smoked meats, nonrefrigerated meat products, aged cheeses and anything that will oxidize or develop rancidity
Standard barrier: fresh meats, cheeses
Low barrier: meats held for more than two weeks
Very low barrier: fresh poultry, swiss cheese
Breathable: fresh fish, smoked fish
