Development of a Heat Sealed Packaging System for Frozen and Refrigerated Foods.

Abstract

The state of the art for material compatibility for heat sealed packaging systems for frozen and refrigerated foods was reviewed and summarized. Appropriate literature was reviewed. Producers, supplier and users of packaging materials were contacted to obtain information on new and currently available materials and concepts. Trade-off analyses were conducted to identify optimum materials which would be compatible with frozen temperatures and microwave and convection oven temperatures (300 F+).
