Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging system, in particular a packaging system for transporting foods, such as pizzas.
  • pizza pie (hereinafter "pizza") has become a popular food dish.
  • Pizzas typically have square or round, flat crust upon which tomato sauce and cheese, as well as other ingredients, are placed before baking in an oven.
  • toppings which may be included on the pizza to satisfy the diverse tastes of the consumers.
  • Many pizzas are consumed in the restaurant where the pizzas are made and purchased.
  • a very large portion of pizza sales occur through delivery where the made to order pizzas are physically transported and delivered to the customer at the requested location such as their home or work.
  • Various types of packaging systems have been used but most common packaging systems utilize a cardboard box sized to hold one pizza.
  • the cardboard box has a square top and bottom but other shapes such as hexagon and octagon have also been used.
  • Boxes of this type provide only a moderate degree of heat retention for the pizza during delivery. If the boxes are unvented, an extended delivery period can result in a pizza which is both cool and soggy.
  • WO 03/043901 discloses inflatable packaging systems in the form of an envelope like package providing protection for relatively flat items to be shipped. However, there is no disclosure of a central area being able to adapt to the changes in geometry that may arise when the packaging system is inflated.
  • the present invention offers a new principle for packaging of food, in particular for packaging for pizza delivery and takeaway.
  • the present invention relates to a packaging system comprising at least three layers of material, wherein at least two adjacent layers of material are welded together thereby forming an inner system defining at least one compartment, said compartment extending around at least a part of a central area of said two adjacent layers of material, and said compartment being closed by a valve means, and wherein the at least third layer extends above or below at least the central area of the two adjacent layers, and wherein the central area is capable of adapting to changes in geometry through deformation sites or through at least two holes.
  • the food to be delivered in the packaging may be arranged on the central area surrounded partly or fully by the at least one compartment.
  • the inner system is stabilised thereby being capable of stabilising the food to be delivered.
  • the invention further relates to a method for producing a packaging system as defined above, comprising assembling the inner system, welding the inner system, arranging at least a third layer of material below and/or above the inner system and welding remaining seams.
  • the packaging system of the invention has several advantages as compared to prior art pizza packaging. First of all it is possible to produce a packaging capable of supporting the pizza during transport, and secondly also capable of being significantly reduced in size, thereby taking up very little space during storage as well as with the litter.
  • the packaging system comprises at least three layers of material, wherein at least two adjacent layers of material are welded together thereby forming an inner system defining at least one compartment.
  • Said at least one compartment is constructed to be inflatable, such as filled with air, by welding the two layers of adjacent material together obtaining an air-tight compartment, whereby the compartment is an air channel.
  • the compartment is closed by a valve means, through which the compartment may be inflated.
  • the inner system comprises only one compartment; however, the packaging system may have more than one compartment, such as two or more compartments arranged concentrically around the central area, or two or more compartments arranged serially around the central area.
  • the compartment extends around at least a part of a central area of said two adjacent layers of material. In a preferred embodiment, the compartment extends around more than half of the periphery of the central area, more preferably the compartment extends around more than two thirds of the periphery of the central area, most preferably the compartment extends around the whole periphery of the central area. In a preferred embodiment the compartment is an air channel around the central area.
  • the ratio of width of the compartment to the width of the central area may be any suitable ratio for the purpose discussed herein. It is preferred that the width of the at least one compartment, before inflation, is less than half the width of the central area. Thereby, the size of the packaging, in particular the size of the central area is adapted most suitably to the size of the food article to be delivered. However, the width of the at least one compartment should not be too small, since the inner system would then lose stability.
  • the packaging system is preferably constructed from layers of web material being welded together, whereby the packaging system is flat before inflation.
  • the central area comprises at least two holes arranged to allow the width of the central area to increase when the at least one compartment is inflated.
  • the two holes through the material should be arranged opposite each other, preferably adjacent the periphery of the central area.
  • the central area may comprise more than two holes, it is however preferred that an even number of holes is selected, such as at least four holes, such as at least six holes, such as at least eight holes. Independent of the number of holes, it is preferred that holes are arranged in pairs opposite each other, preferably close to the periphery of the central area.
  • the term "hole” is meant to include any holes, independent of size and form, through the layers of the inner system. Preferably, the holes are in the form of slits when the inner system is uninflated.
  • the shape of the central area may be any suitable shape leading to a stable packaging system. Accordingly, the shape of the central area may be selected from the shapes of circular, oval, triangular, rectangular, hexagonal, octagonal and a square. It is however preferred that the central area is substantially circular.
  • the rigidity of the inner system is obtained due to the fact that when the at least one compartment is inflated then the central area is extended due to the holes therein, and being stretched within the at least one compartment.
  • the material of adjacent layers constituting the inner system is preferably an elastic material.
  • the layers constituting the inner system are made from the same material; it may, however, be advantageous to provide different materials for the two layers, for example by providing a heat stable material for the upper layer of the inner system.
  • the correct geometry is provided by having deformation sites in the central area capable of adapting to the changes in geometry when the inflatable compartement is inflated.
  • the deformation sites may be manufactured by means of mechanically stretching the layers or by means of local thermal heating.
  • the central area may be provided at least partly with one or more inflatable channels.
  • Inflatable channels in the central area may provide better insulation properties, and furthermore any fluids may be collected between the channels thereby avoiding spilling and soaking of the food.
  • the inflatable channels may be of any shape or size
  • the invention also relates to a packaging system, wherein the material of at least one layer of the inner system is heat-stable allowing for transport of hot food articles.
  • the material of adjacent layers constituting the inner system may be selected from any suitable material capable of providing the functionality as described above.
  • the material is selected from polymers, co-polymers and laminates of polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyester, polyether, paper laminate, and nylon.
  • the material is airtight, at least for a period corresponding to the transport time.
  • At least the outer surface of the material, or the material as a whole is provided with an agent to prevent formation of dew on and in the package during use.
  • the material may be provided with an anti-static agent, either added to the layer material as such or added to the surface of the material.
  • the material may be surface treated by means of corona-treatment or other methods in order to be able to apply text, logos and other prints to the packaging material.
  • the packaging system also includes at least a third layer extending above or below at least the central area of the two adjacent layers. It is preferred that the third layer extends above or below the central area and the at least one compartment of the two adjacent layers. The third layer may cover either the top or the bottom of the food article to be transported.
  • the packaging system further comprise a fourth layer of material, wherein the third layer and the fourth layer are welded together at least at a part of their periphery, said welding being positioned so that the third and the fourth layer is capable of housing the inner system yet allowing access to the inner system.
  • the housing consisting of the third and the fourth layer may add to the stabilisation of the inner system leading to a rigid packaging system when the at least one compartment is inflated.
  • the inner system is kept in a tight fit between the third and the fourth layer. This may be obtained by constructing the layers as described in relation to Fig. 2 with respect to a circular packaging system.
  • the tight fit and stability is further increased if the material selected for the third and/or the fourth layer is less elastic than the layers of the inner system.
  • the material of the third and/or the fourth layer may be any suitable material capable of providing the functionality described herein.
  • the material of the third and/or the fourth layer is selected from polymers, co-polymers and laminates of polyethylene, polyester, polyether, paper laminate, and nylon.
  • the third and/or the fourth layer may be constructed with a free end, i.e. that a part of the third and/or the fourth layer is not welded to another part of the packaging system.
  • the free end facilitates access to the inner system.
  • the free end may comprise a pocket, for example a pocket constructed by reversing a part of the free end of the third and/or a part of the free end of the fourth layer and welding it to the free end of said layer.
  • the pocket provides the layer with a function as a reservoir receiving any food material falling from the food article arranged on the inner system.
  • the pocket may also be folded around the inner system thereby closing the packaging system. Accordingly, the pocket may be positioned to extend around the edge of the inner system, when said layer is positioned above or below the inner system..
  • the form of the pocket may be any suitable for closing the packaging system.
  • the packaging system according to the invention having a pocket capable of closing the packaging system is particularly suitable for maintaining the initial temperature of food articles arranged on the inner system during transport
  • the packaging system is provided with a separate layer for closing the packaging system, for example a separate layer having a pocket as described above in opposite sites for extending around the inner system.
  • the layer may be fitted with a reclosable system such as Velcro or adhesive.
  • the packaging system When providing the packaging system with a closing layer it may be advantageous to provide perforations or other types of holes in the closing layer thereby providing capabilities for allowing any steam to escape the packaging system while preferably maintaining the food inside at its desired temperature.
  • the holes may be provided by any suitable means such as selective heating, mechanically using for example brushes or punching.
  • the form of the holes may be any suitable form.
  • the packaging system according to the invention further comprises a fifth layer of material, said fifth layer being positioned between the third layer and the inner system.
  • the fifth layer may for example be an absorptive layer, whereby the packaging system is particular suited for transporting hot food articles, since the absorptive fifth layer may absorb any condensed moisture in the packaging.
  • the packaging system according to the invention is preferably stored un-inflated, to be inflated after arranging the food article on the central area of the inner system.
  • Inflation is preferably carried out by inserting air into the at least one compartment. Air may be inserted through at least one valve means into the at least one compartment, said valve means being any suitable valve means.
  • the valve means is constituted by one or two flaps of material connected to the inner system, space between said flaps communicating with the interior of the at least one compartment. After inflation the flaps are closed, for example by being welded together. In a preferred embodiment the inflation is conducted with an instrument capable of welding the flaps after inflation.
  • the inflation and welding may be performed in one operation by means of an apparatus capable of inflation and welding. Thereby, it is also possible to standardize correct inflation, such as by means of volume or pressure.
  • the flaps consist of a reclosable valve so that the packaging system can be inflated and deflated more than once.
  • the packaging system according to the invention may be used for transport and delivery of a variety of food articles, such as pizzas, hamburgers, cakes, pancakes, tarts, , soups, ice cream and other full hot, cold and tempered meals.
  • the food article is preferably arranged on the central area of the inner system, after which the at least one compartment is inflated, and optionally a pocket of either the third and/or the fourth layer is folded around the inner system closing the packaging system.
  • the packaging system may be deflated before or after removing the food article.
  • the deflation may be carried out by any suitable means, for example by puncturing the at least one compartment with a knife or a fork.
  • the packaging system may be constructed from material leading to less pollution of the environment when destroyed after use.
  • the material used may be less energy consuming to manufacture leading to less energy use.
  • the packaging system is preferably made of materials provided as web material, whereby the inner system as well as the housing may be produced in a process line capable of welding the material in the predetermined form and cutting away excess material. It is preferred that all layers of the packaging system are assembled in the process line, for example by assembling the inner system and welding the inner system and subsequently arranging the other layers below and above the inner system and welding the remaining parts.
  • the packaging system according to the invention may be provided with means for stabling two or more packaging system in a stable manner.
  • a stabling device such as a wedge formed device may be inserted between two packaging system at two or more positions.
  • the packaging system is provided with projections and corresponding cavities so that projections in one packaging system fits into cavities in the adjacent packaging system.
  • the cavities may in one embodiment be the space between two neighbouring projections.
  • the means for stabling may allow for a space between each packaging system thereby providing possibilities for excess steam to escape.
  • each packaging system may be considered the closing means for the packaging system underneath, and consequently only the top packaging system may need its own closing means.
  • the packaging system according to the invention may be provided with different means for punctioning the packaging system after use, such as a slot for easy tearing until puncture occurs is provided, as well as a perforated foil for easy tearing until puncture occurs.
