Questions

Frequently asked questions

Can't find what you need? Talk to a packaging engineer.

  • Are your seafood films FDA compliant?

    Yes — all seafood structures use FDA-compliant food-contact materials and we maintain SQF certification across the press floor.

  • Can you produce vacuum-rated pouches with zippers?

    Yes. Zippered vacuum pouches are a core format — with or without custom windows, in pre-made or rollstock configurations.

    We can recommend structures based on your distribution profile and partner on drop, abrasion and freeze-thaw testing.
