![]() method and packaging for packaging food product
专利摘要:
FOOD PRODUCT PACKAGING PACKAGE The present invention relates to a perishable food packaging that has a rigid or semi-rigid bottom shell and a flexible upper portion for storing a perishable food product therein. The food product can be vacuum sealed with a first layer of film, such as an inner film layer inside the tray. The vacuum-sealed food product can be sealed tightly so that any loose particles of the food can be prevented from moving during storage and transportation. The tray can then be sealed in an opening by a second layer of film, such as an outer layer. A space filled with gas is present between the first and second layers of film and can assist in conserving the freshness of the food product and minimize or avoid damage to the product. Additionally, the packaging may have support features positioned on the outside of the packaging that help to support the packaging in an upright position. 公开号:BR112012008938A2 申请号:R112012008938-2 申请日:2010-09-27 公开日:2020-07-07 发明作者:Erik M.

Invention Patent Descriptive Report for "METHOD AND PACKAGING FOR PACKAGING FOOD PRODUCTS". Field This order relates generally to a flexible top package 5 and a rigid bottom for a food product and, in particular, to a package configured to pack the food product in it. Background The packaging of food products, and particularly chilled or frozen pizzas, can be designed to protect pizza 1O from impacts during shipping and handling. This is typically accomplished by placing a cardboard insert against an underside of the pizza. A flexible outer film wrapper is formed to surround the cardboard insert and the pizza to keep the insert generally in place against the pizza. In a type of pizza packaging, the outer film wrapper is the only other outer packaging. Although it is a low-cost packaging, it can be desirable for several reasons. First, the sides and top of the pizza have no protection, thereby potentially exposing them to breakage or other damage during shipping and handling. Second, it may be desirable to print graphics or nutritional information on the outer wrap, as the outer wrap may deform during wrapping, resulting in an uneven surface not suitable for pre-printed graphics. Instead, in this type of pizza packaging, graphics or nutritional information can be printed on a paper that is inserted or on the bottom of the packaging, between the insert and the outer wrapper, or on the top of the packaging, between the top surface. of the pizza and the outer wrapper. It may be desirable to have to provide separate paper separately. In another type of pizza packaging, the pizza, the cardboard insert and the outer film wrapper are placed in a secondary packaging, often a carton or carton. While the cardboard box can solve some of the disadvantages with pizza packaging without a cardboard box, such as providing space and additional protection for the graphics to be printed, the same too
