Definitions

  • the invention relates to a packaging for food products useful for boil-in-bag or microwave.
  • US-A-3 373 926 concerns also a pouch containing for example potato chips and comprising a sealing strip for joining the edge portions of the tube formed for receiving the food product and a sealing for separating successive pouches.
  • the great drawback of this system is the danger of having leakages at the position of the sealings, which renders this type of solution not absolutely accurate.
  • the same drawback is to be considered with the container according to EP-A-359 847 and concerning a package with an easy opening device comprising a non-sealed portion, which can affect the security of the sealing.
  • DE-A-3700988 concerns a plastic packaging with a glue opening system: in this package, there is no absolute necessity of having a good sealing.
  • the invention provides a packaging comprising a sealed flexible pouch with a thermoformed bottom web and a top web of a monooriented material,said top web comprising a precut, which operates as starting pull tab for the opening, as shown in EP-A-359 847, and wherein one part of the top web consists of two layers sealed together on their edges, the precut being between these edges, in the outer layer and present transversely to the orientation of the film of said layer and the flexible pouch comprises at the two opposite ends handles, each stiffened with a strip of material.
  • the pull tab starts a tear strip without any weakening line in the material used.
  • the package according to the invention can be used for frozen products as well as for chilled products.
  • the package is used in a microwave, one has from the precut in the outer layer to pull the tab across the seal joining both layers to allow for ventilation, avoiding therefore any risk of exploding the package.
  • the package stays closed and the tab is pulled after final reheating.
  • the flexible pouch comprises at opposite ends handles each stiffened with a strip of material. These strips are of high density Polyethylene. After heating and opening for instance the package, the help of the handles gives the opportunity to empty the pouch very easily by inverting it and the food product leaves the pouch.
  • the precut in the outer layer is present transversely to the orientation of the film of said web.
  • the width of the part with the two layers is of 1 to 2 cm, so that the opening is as large as possible for discharging the food product.
  • the precut is approximately in the middle of the edge of the flexible pouch.
  • the material of the top web is any oriented plastic used for the food contact and preferably a monooriented polyester or Polyamide laminated to Polyethylene.
  • the bottom web is made of Polyamide/Polyethylene, or any other formable material sealable on the top web.
