Application guide

What matters for this application
Meal and portion format
Match capacity, compartments and fill height to the actual portion. Keep sauce away from the sealing flange and check how the tray fits the production line.
Sealed pack performance
Review the tray, film and equipment together. If MAP is planned, include the food producer's gas, cold-chain and shelf-life validation requirements.
Product families to explore
These are starting points for discussion. The selected product and its records need to match your food, process and market.
