Our extensive research in post-processing pasteurization has resulted in the first bag specifically designed for post-packaging heat treatment of processed meats. This bag that combines the heat tolerance of a standard cook-in bag with the merchandising attributes of Cryovac® Barrier Bags, delivering the outstanding gloss, optics and skin-tight shrink required for the retail meat case display. Ideally suited for ready-to-eat, deli products like roast beef, turkey breasts and half-hams sold by the pound.
Cryovac® materials provide attractive, air tight and easy-to-open barrier bags and rollstock packaging for bulk-sized deli applications.
