Cryovac have Vacuum Skin Tray Concept

Description

The new generation Cryovac® EOST range consists of pre-made, high oxygen barrier rigid trays specifically designed for vacuum skin packaging. They feature efficient easy opening and are available in clear, white or black, in a large variety of sizes and depths. The unique range of Cryovac® VST0250 & VST0280 top webs are fully co-extruded skin films with high barrier and formability around products, featuring strong seal strength with Cryovac® EOST trays.

This novel combination comes as an ideal addition to the unique and highly successful Vacuum Skin concept Darfresh® “The Original” launched by Cryovac years ago.

The new Cryovac® VST™ system runs on existing qualified tray sealers which have been modified to run the vacuum skin process, from various manufacturers for example Mondini, Sealpac, Multivac or Ulma. Cryovac® lidding materials are also available as an option for 3-web applications.

Benefits of the Cryovac® VST™ Concept
Processors will quickly appreciate the many benefits:
• New tray approach with off-line loading;
• Lower investment and entry cost allowing a quick move into the market with limited risks, thus short lead time to start;
• High system flexibility combining the best of the vacuum skin and lidding technologies;
• Special smooth wall design of the tray for better skin effect.

Retailers will look forward to the drop-in solution provided by the vertical display and the fact that there is no need for cabinet adjustment. The headspace reduction, reduced wastage, excellent pack appearance and total pack integrity are key additional bonuses.

Meanwhile, consumers will enjoy the familiar retail pack with special design and rigidity, limited drip loss, easy opening feature and long shelf life.

Applications

The Cryovac® VST™ concept is ideal for packaging fresh or frozen meats (beef, veal, pork or lamb), as well as poultry cut-ups with long shelf-life requirements.
