Rretort Pouch

Retort pouches requires less water and energy to manufacture and transport, and generates small quantities of greenhouse gases on its way to market. Thanks to its efficiency in product to package ratios, retort pouches ultimately results in less consumer waste being sent to landfills.

Why choose cookable packaging?
Cost savings - no need for pre-blanching or pre-cooking, thus reducing manufacturing and processing time and costs, as well as energy and water use

Material Handling - Reduced package weight and size eliminates the need for bulky cans/bottles during processing and makes waste handling, transportation, storage, use and disposal easier. Bulk waste is reduced and cleanup and disposal requires a fraction of the space and processing time of traditional jars, glass bottles or semi-rigid thermoformed containers.

Convenience - Consumers find the bags easy to handle, store and dispose of, and the steaming bags are easy to open without piercing metal or requiring additional tools.

Safety - while heating liquids in cans creates dangerous pressure and opening cans can leave sharp edges, steaming bags are easy and safe to handle

Branding- Increase consumer visibility by expanding branding and labeling surface area and product display locations

Quality- Food can be cooked safely and evenly, and overcooking or uneven cooking of canned foods can be avoided.

Design Options- Steamer packs are available in a variety of sizes and configuration shapes, printable surfaces, and a variety of hanging or standing methods. Packages can be flat, oval, truncated conical, or virtually any shape imaginable and designed with the obvious limitations of canned or bottled foods.
