Definitions

  • This invention relates to a package and method of packaging bone-in meat for shipping only and for both shipping and retail display and a method of distributing bone-in meat products for retail display, which employs this package and method of packaging.
  • the conventional method of distributing bone-in meat products has been to ship wholesale sized, i.e. primal or sub-primal, pieces of meat from a wholesale meat packing facility to a butcher shop, butcher department of a grocery store or other retail meat sales facility. These wholesale sized pieces of meat were then cut into plural smaller retail sized portions at the retail facility. The retail sized portions were then repackaged in a fully transparent wrap for retail display, net weighed, labelled and then finally put on retail display at the retail facility.
  • the wholesale sized pieces of meat are covered with two separate wrapping materials to protect them during shipment: an outer air impermeable wrap protectively encased the entire piece and an inner wrap protectively covered the sharp edges of any bones at the surface of the meat to prevent risk of puncture or tearing of the outer wrap.
  • One material commonly known to be used as the inner wrap is an opaque wax impregnated cloth of approximatley 9 mils thickness which is flexibly molded to the contours of the boney portion of the meat.
  • Bonegard One such opaque inner wrap commonly used in the meat packing industry is known by the trademark Bonegard.
  • PVC polyvinylchloride
  • the prior art meth of distributing bone-in meat includes four steps at the wholesa meat packing facility and another six additional steps to be performed at the retail meat sales facility.
  • the first step 11 to cover the exposed primal or sub-primal bones with an opaque protective wrap which is substantially impervious to bone puncture.
  • the next step 12 is to envelope the primal piece in outer shipping wrap, such as nylon, Saran or Surlyn laminated o co-extruded bag or roll stock materials which is not bone puncture impervious but which is air impermeable.
  • the envelope is sealed and evacuated or heat shrunk tightly against the meat surface to eliminate contact with the air.
  • the outer wrap is stretched tightly over the meat including the bone and thus is susceptible to tearing if not protected from the sharp edges.
  • the next step 13 of stacking the wrapped wholesale sized pieces in shipping containers is the step which makes the opaque protective wrap over the exposed bone even more important, for is the weight of the stack which can additionally stress the outer wrap to tear or puncture in the absence of the protective opaque inner wrap over the exposed bone surface.
  • the following step 14 of stacking the shipping containers in a truck or other carrier and then shipping them to a retail meat sales facility can, of course, place additional stress on the package.
  • step 15 of receiving the shipping containers is performed.
  • the shipping package consisting of th opaque inner protective wrap and the outer shipping wrap are removed and disposed in step 16.
  • step 17 the wholesale siz pieces are finally cut into retail sized pieces, and in step 18 the retail sized pieces are repackaged with totally transparent retail display wrap.
  • step 19 the repackaged retail display wrapped pieces of bone-in meat are net weighed, labelled and stamped with cut identity, weight, price, etc.
  • step 20 the repackaged retail display wrapped pieces of bone-in mea are put on display for retail sale.
  • the inner protective wrap for covering the bones which is sufficiently tough for shipping but is still transparent and flexible enough to enable it to function as an effective inner protective wrap. It also is transparent and non-interactive with the meat products being packaged so as not to impart unpleasant taste and odor to the meat.
  • This material has been approved by the U.S.D.A. for use as a packaging material and has been used to provide a sealant layer for retail display packaging of meat, but has not been known to be used in its flexible sheet form as required here in order for it to function as a protective inner wrap. It is believed that yet other materials may be discovered, or composi developed with or without the preferred material for the transparent inner protective wrap of the invention.

  • the transparent inne wrap is colorless, and has a substantially smooth surface for optimum viewing and generally has these physical properties equivalent to those of Surlyn ionomer resin Type No. 1601 in 3-7 mil thickness.
  • the packaging method step of holding includes the steps of applying adhesive to one side of the inner wrap, and pressing said one side of the inner wrap against the exposed bone and surrounding meat.
  • the inner protective wrap is unwound from a roll of inner wrap material and adhesive applied to one side of the inner wrap as it is unwound from the roll.
  • This distribution method comprises the step of preparing for retail display at a wholesale meat packing facilit a plurality of retail sized portions of bone-in meat with a bone exposed at the surfaces thereof including the step of wrapping a least the exposed bone ' of said retail sized portions with a transparent, nonodoriferous and substantially bone puncture impervious plastic protective wrap, shipping from the wholesale meat packing facility to a retail meat sales facility a pluralit of said retail sized portions with said substantially bone puncture impervious inner protective wrap, and displaying said plurality of retail sized portions of bone-in meat at said retai meat sales facility for retail sale in the totally transparent wrap in which said retail meat portions were originally shipped.

  • the T-bone steak 32 is tightly enveloped and vacuum packed in a conventional air impervious plastic outer wrap 38 such as nylon, Saran or Surlyn laminated or co-extruded bag or roll sto materials. While other materials can be used, the important qualities for the outer wrap are transparency combined with flexibility and air impermeability.
  • the outer wrap must be transparent in order to be used as a retail display package. I must be flexible to facilitate handling and so it can closely conform to the contour of whatever meat it envelopes. It must air impervious to protect the T-bone steak package from the air.
  • the envelope tightl encasing the meat is formed by two pieces of outer wrap 40a and 40b which are heat melt sealed along a seam 42.
  • the seam extend closely around the periphery of the T-bone steak 32 to form an envelope within which the meat is encased.
  • the outer wrap piece 40a and 40b are tightly stretched over and in contact with the surface of the T-bone steak 32 except immediately adjacent the seam 42 which is evacuated during the process of heat melt sealing.
  • the transparent plastic outer wrap is stretched over the surface bone 34 at edge 36.
  • the known plastic outer wrap materials meet the needed requirements of transparency, flexibility and air impermeability they are not sufficiently bone-puncture or bone tear impervious when put through the rigors of stacking, packaging and shipping. Accordingly, it is necessary to reinforce or protect the plastic outer wrap at least at the exposed surface bone 34, particularly at edge 36, with an inner protective wrap 44. This is the case whether packaging primals, sub-primals or retail sized pieces of meat, for primal and sub-primal pieces of meat must also be packaged in a way that the integrity of the package can be maintained during shipment. Protection against bone puncture is necessary.
  • the inner protective wrap 44 is clear, transparent, flexible, substantiall bone puncture impervious, tasteless, nonodoriferous and substantially non-interactive with the meat. For purposes of economy, it is used to cover only the exposed surface bone 34 an adjacent meat surface.

While a thickness of as little as 3 mils or less may be sufficient for some applications, preferably the thickness believed adequate fo all applications is on the order of 5 mils. Specifically, Type No. 1601 Surlyn has been successfully employed and is- recommended.
  • the ionic cross linked hydrocarbo polymer is odorless, tasteless and is not chemically interactive with the meat. It has been approved by the U.S.D.A. for packaging food and in the past has been used in resilient molded form for hot dogs and in flexible form as a component for composite outer wrap material.

Abstract

Des morceaux de viande (32) non désossée découpée pour la vente au détail sont conditionnés sous vide dans un conditionnement (30) composite complètement transparent comportant une enveloppe (44) intérieure souple, transparente, non odorifique, chimiquement inerte, résistant aux perforations par les os, recouvrant les os exposés (34), ainsi qu'une enveloppe (38) extérieure transparente imperméable à l'air, perforable par les os. Le conditionnement composite (30) est assez fort pour résister à la perforation par les os pendant le transport à partir de l'installation de conditionnement de viande en gros, tout en permettant simultanément de voir très nettement tout le morceau de viande (32) comprenant l'os, et par conséquent est adapté pour une utilisation également comme conditionnement de présentation pour la vente au détail. Ils sont ensuite transportés et mis en étalage sur le lieu de vente de viande au détail dans le même conditionnement (30) que celui dans lequel la viande a été transportée. L'enveloppe (44) intérieure transparente, non odorifique, sans goût, résistant aux perforations par les os, se compose de polymères d'hydrocarbure à réticulation ionique ou équivalente dans des feuilles transparentes claires d'approximativement 5 mils d'épaisseur. On utilise également les polymères d'hydrocarbure à réticulation ionique comme enveloppe intérieure pour conditionnement de transport de morceaux de viande non désossée à l'état originel et sous-originel.
