Solutions for the poultry industry

Whether chicken, turkey, duck or goose – today’s kitchen not only values poultry meat for its versatile flavours, but also because it provides biologically important protein and contains less fat and therefore fewer calories than other meat. This is why poultry has become extremely appreciated by consumers, as can be seen from its ever-growing share in the global meat production in recent years.

Those who want to convince the increasingly demanding consumer of their poultry products need to satisfy in terms of quality and freshness. Modern packaging solutions assist in protecting these sensitive products, while extending their shelf life. By applying special features, poultry products are able to stand out from the crowd – for example in the fast-growing segment of snacks.

FAQ о Птица

  • Can the packaging reliably achieve the required shelf life and food safety standards for poultry products?

    Owing to their consistent sealing process, regardless whether using modified atmosphere packaging or vacuum skin packaging, SEALPAC traysealers and thermoformers always guarantee maximum shelf life. Naturally, this also depends on the packaging materials used and the production environment (e.g. hygiene and temperature). In today’s world, the main challenge is reducing plastics whilst maintaining the shelf life of the fresh poultry. For each product, we support our customers by reducing the thickness of plastic used in their current packaging, as well as by introducing hybrid solutions, where most of the plastic is replaced by cardboard. In case of hybrid solutions, we enable the consumer to separate the individual materials after use. By throwing these materials away in the appropriate waste bins, recycling is made easy. In case of 100% plastic packaging, we have optimized our traysealers to handle so-called ultra-light trays. Since 2014 already, we offer our EasyLid® system for reclosable packaging, due to which the common snap-on lid can be eliminated. This leads to weight reductions of up to 40%. On our SEALPAC thermoformers, we offer the unique SmartShape forming system that achieves an improved consistency, particularly in the corners of the pack, without requiring an additional stamp mechanism. As a result, up to 10% thinner films can be used. All this, without compromising on shelf life.

  • How well does the machine handle wet, sticky, or contaminated products without seal failures?

    SEALPAC traysealers and thermoformers are known for their high seal integrity. By combining first-class lifting systems with innovative sealing technology, your poultry packs will always be hermetically closed. Even in wet environments or when using bone-in or marinated products. Furthermore, we are capable of combining a hermetic seal with easy opening for the consumer. And in today’s world, where plastic needs to be reduced to the minimum, and the recyclability of that plastic need to be maximized, we offer various packaging solutions that still make your products stand out on the retail shelves.

  • What packaging technologies are supported (MAP, vacuum skin, leakproof packs, resealable formats, etc.)?

    Since the foundation of our company, SEALPAC machines have been designed to run all of today’s and tomorrow’s packaging concepts on the same base machine. This includes classic modified atmosphere packaging, vacuum skin packaging, and shrink packaging, but also more complicated packaging concepts such as FlatSkin®, FibreStyle, or separate InsideCut. As packaging experts, we would gladly sit down with you to design the optimal pack for your poultry product.

  • Can the machine prevent purge leakage and maintain attractive pack presentation?

    Next to offering highest seal integrity, SEALPAC also develops specific packaging concept for its poultry customers. As an example, on our thermoformers we offer shrink packaging for whole birds. ShrinkStyle® is SEALPAC’s fully automated packaging system that combines the benefits of thermoforming and shrink bag technology. It starts with the forming of the bottom film. The product is then loaded and sealed under vacuum using high-precision technology. After cross- and longitudinal cutting, or optional contour cutting, the subsequent shrink process ensures the second-skin appearance, leading to a robust yet eye-catching appearance.

  • What output can realistically be achieved in high-volume poultry production?

    The output always depends on a number of factors, such as product, format, packaging concept, and production environment. A packaging line can only go as fast as its slowest component, but this will not be the SEALPAC packaging machine. As an example, our A10max traysealer in double-lane execution could package 200 trays per minute under MAP (based on a 190 x 144 mm tray). However, line efficiency is also important. Every unplanned interruption, inefficient movement, or disruption in the process directly impacts production costs. Against this backdrop, our packaging machines are consistently designed for stable, reproducible processes. We rely on robust construction, intelligent monitoring systems, and automated assistance functions that ensure flawless operation again and again. As such, we achieve the highest OEE in the market, sometimes up to 99.5%.

  • How flexible is the system for different cuts, portion sizes, marinades, and retail formats?

    SEALPAC traysealers and thermoformers are designed to run all current and future packaging concepts on the same base machine. Furthermore, all SEALPAC machines are equipped with innovative quick tooling exchange systems that make switching between different applications easy and avoid unnecessary machine downtime. On our thermoformers, for example, the sealing top tool can be replaced with minimum effort using a special trolley. This makes the exchange not only much quicker, but also safer for your employees, who no longer have to lift or carry heavy components. Other quick exchange systems include the side exchange or swivel table for bottom tools. On our traysealers, we offer the possibility for a tooling exchange from both sides of the machine using a unique SEALPAC trolley with integrated power connections. As such, a format change can take place within minutes.

  • Can the machine reliably run recyclable and mono-material packaging materials?

    Each machine supports a wide range of packaging solutions, from classic MAP applications to today’s sustainable material concepts. Innovative packaging features can also be integrated, such as the unique EasyPeelPoint system, which enables particularly user-friendly opening of the pack by the consumer. The combination of high precision and intelligent control ensures that the machine reliably handles even the most demanding materials and geometries. Both our traysealers and thermoformers are capable of handling any modern, recyclable, ultra-light, or mono-materials without headaches.

  • How hygienic is the machine design and how quickly can it be cleaned and sanitized?

    Due to their sophisticated design with optimal accessibility, SEALPAC traysealers and thermoformers stand for enhanced protection of both product and personnel. Whether it concerns the stainless-steel body that can be hosed down, the integrated slopes that optimize water drainage, or the avoidance of interfering contours: our machines allow for fast, simple and reliable cleaning.

  • How well does the machine integrate with weighing, portioning, labeling, and inspection systems?

    SEALPAC equipment is known for its flawless integration into new and existing production lines. As such, the machines enable you to set up fully automated solutions for the processing and packaging of your products. Any synchronization, be it with slicers, multi-head weighers, coding equipment, labellers, metal detection, or even end-of-line equipment for secondary packaging, is made easy. Furthermore, SEALPAC machines are fully prepared for Industry 4.0, meaning that they can be easily integrated into digitalized production environments via standardized interfaces (e.g. OPC/UA). This allows for maximum control and traceability.

  • What are the total operating costs, including film, gas, energy, maintenance, and downtime?

    When evaluating a packaging line, simply looking at the investment costs is no longer sufficient. What matters is how efficient the line is in daily operation and what the actual cost per package is. Energy consumption, material usage, changeover times, uptime, and process stability, even when using more challenging mono-materials, are directly interconnected. The total cost of ownership can only be determined by knowing your exact production details. In general, we know that the investment costs of a SEALPAC machine are less than 3% of the total line costs, that we have 90% less air consumption by using servo technology, that we can run up to 10% thinner films on our thermoformers due to the SmartShape forming technology, that we can place 33% more trays in a tool by running Long Side Leading, and that we have up to 30% less film consumption with InsideCut whilst achieving an excellent product appearance. Furthermore, our machines are built to last: over 95% of every traysealer or thermoformer ever built is still in operation!
