Thermoforming Film
Thermoforming films are used in high-speed environments to reduce packaging waste and remove weight from finished packs.
Predominantly used by meat, poultry, cheese and bakery producers, thermoforming films are designed to extend the shelf life of packed products.

a strong, snug finished pack
Used largely by meat, poultry and cheese producers, thermoforming delivers a highly cost effective product pack, for high volume operations.
The process results in the ideal pack size for the product, reducing plastic packaging waste. A snug finished pack also reduces space in transit and on the shelf, delivering efficiencies through the supply chain.
Ideal for MAP and gas flush applications, the excellent seal achieved contributes to extended shelf life, for further reduced waste.
Thermoforming creates a strong and durable pack that resists damage during transit and storage. It's also able to withstand freezing and microwave cooking processes, for ultimate convenience.
