Definitions
- the invention relates to improvements in or relating to the packaging of food.
- the two films having the fish sealed between them are then repeatedly cut so that separate packages containing the fish are produced.
- the lower film is an opaque material
- the upper film is a clear material so that the portion of fish is visible.
- Overall the packages have the effect of keeping the fish fresher for a longer period of time and thereby increasing the shelf life.
- the packages are suitable for transporting to a supermarket in bulk and for stacking on shelves ready for sale.
- the packages also present the fish to the consumer in an appealing manner because it has a three-dimensional appearance.
- Such a way of packaging may be termed skin packaging which is characterised by the use of adhesive between the two films, and whereby the upper film is a shrink wrap film.
- the skin packaging method is distinct from conventional vacuum packaging which merely applies a partial vacuum and then creates a seal around a perimeter of the food.
- the package may keep the portion of fish fresh, for example, up to seven days, a problem may be encountered towards the end of this shelf life because water and juices may be lost from the fish.
- the water collects on the top and on the side of the portion of fish within the pack itself.
- the water may contribute to reducing the shelf life of the fish within the package, or at least contribute to a reduction in the colour, flavour or integrity of the fish.
- the water looks unsightly and may be unappealing to the consumer.
- Water collecting within the package may be a particular problem when the package containing the fish is frozen prior to transportation and delivery to the supermarket.
- Such freezing is typically required when the fish is being transported of a long distance such as exporting to another country.
- the package typically undergoes a controlled defrosting process before it is placed on the supermarket shelves for sale.
- Such freezing increases the volume of the portion of fish because water expands when frozen. This in turn causes the upper plastic film to stretch and become loose.
- the upper plastic film may also become loose when the fish has moved or slipped on the tray whether the fish has not been frozen or not. If the package is displayed in an upright position the water may collect in a pouch of the upper plastic film. Overall the collection of water in the pouch between the fish and the top plastic film provides a poor presentation of the package to the customer.
- the tray having a floor with at least one channel
- the packaging apparatus uses the packaging apparatus to urge the two plastic films together and to create a seal therebetween, wherein at least one duct is formed between said at least one channel and at least one of the second plastic film, the absorbent pad, and the portion of food.
- said at least one channel which may assist with gripping of the food to inhibit it from sliding on the tray. This may provide the advantage of improving the integrity of the seal between the two films. Furthermore, said at least one channel may stiffen the tray. This may provide the advantage of making the second plastic film easier to remove from the tray or avoiding the tray flexing excessively.
- the method further includes cutting the two films to create a separate package containing the portion of food and the absorbent pad.
- the method further includes forming the tray with a continuous lip around the portion of food, said at least one channel and the absorbent pad, the lip for providing a continuous seal between the plastic films.
- the method includes forming the lip on the floor of the tray.
- the method further includes forming the floor of the tray with a plurality of channels for providing a plurality of ducts between the plurality of channels and at least one of the second plastic film, the absorbent pad, and the portion of food.
- the method further includes forming the plurality of channels so that the ducts are in communication with one another.
- Such arrangements permits the water or juices to pass more easily to the absorbent pad, and may also assist with stiffening the tray, and allow a lighter weight tray to be used, which may provide a cost and environmental advantage.
- the method further includes forming said at least one channel using a row or a grid of raised portions of the floor of the tray.
- Such arrangements permit the water or juices to pass more easily to the absorbent pad, and may also assist with stiffening the tray. Furthermore, the raised portions may help the tray to grip the food and to inhibit it from moving on the tray.
- the method is provided as a continuous process.
- the first plastic film and/or the second plastic film are provided on respective feed reels.
- the portion of food is fish.
- the method further includes using the packaging apparatus to urge the two plastic fi ns together by applying a partial vacuum above the second plastic film and below the first plastic film, and then venting a region above the second plastic film to atmospheric pressure.
- the method further includes using the packaging apparatus to apply heat to at least partially bond the two plastic films together. The heat may activate an adhesive of one or both of the plastic films.
- said at least on channel may assist with gripping of the food to inhibit it from sliding on the tray. This may provide the advantage of improving the integrity of the seal between the two films.
- said at least one channel may stiffen the tray. This may provide the advantage of making the second plastic film easier to remove from the tray or avoiding the tray flexing excessively. Such a stiffer tray may also allow a lighter weight tray to be used, which may provide a cost and environmental advantage.
- the absorbent pad at least partially covers at least a part of said at least one channel.
- the portion of food on the floor of the tray at least partially covers a part of said at least one channel.
- the portion of food on the floor of the tray is at least partially on the absorbent pad, and preferably the portion of food on the floor of the tray wholly covers the absorbent pad.
- the absorbent pad may be provided on a part or the whole of the floor of the tray. Such arrangements permits the water or juices to pass more easily to the absorbent pad.
- said at least one channel is provided by a row or a grid of raised portions of the floor of the tray.
- the raised portions are discrete projections from the floor of the tray.
- each raised portion has an apex.
- each apex has an area of between 0.75 to 4mm 2 , and preferably 2.5mm 2 .
- each raised portion has at least one face which is concave.
- each raised portion has a height of between 1.0mm and 7.0mm, and preferably 3.6mm.
- Such arrangements may provide the advantage or promoting a separation between the tray and the film to create said at least one duct.
- the portion of food is fish.
- One or both of the plastic film and the tray may be a thexmofonning material.
- a packaging apparatus for packaging a portion of food and an absorbent pad between a tray and a plastic film, the tray having a floor with at least one channel, the absorbent pad being located on the floor of the tray, the portion of food being located on the floor of the tray, the plastic film being located on the tray to sandwich the absorbent pad and the portion of food between the tray and the plastic film, the packaging apparatus operable to urge the tray and the plastic film together and to create a seal therebetween, wherein at least one duct is formed between said at least one channel and at least one of the second plastic film, the absorbent pad, and the portion of food.
- Such an apparatus has the advantage that the portion of food may be kept fresher for a longer period of time, which may increase the shelf life, or at least contributes to an improved colour, flavour or integrity of the food.
- This advantage is provided by the ability of the water and other juices from the portion of food to pass to the absorbent pad via said at least one duct.
- said at least on channel may assist with gripping of the food to inhibit it from sliding on the tray. This may provide the advantage of improving the integrity of the seal between the two films.
- said at least one channel may stiffen the tray. This may provide the advantage of making the second plastic film easier to remove from the tray or avoiding the tray flexing excessively. Such a stiffer tray may also allow a lighter weight tray to be used, which may provide a cost and environmental advantage.
- the apparatus is operable to urge the plastic film onto the tray by applying a partial vacuum above the plastic film and below the tray, and then venting a region above the plastic film to atmospheric pressure.
- the apparatus is operable to bond the plastic at least partially bonded to the tray with the application of heat.
- the heat may activate an adhesive of the plastic film or the tray.
- the floor of the tray has a well in communication with the at least one channel.
- an apparatus for performing the method according to the first aspect of the invention, or for making the package according to the second aspect of the invention.
- a method of vacuum packaging food between a first plastic film and a second plastic film using a vacuum packaging apparatus including;
- the absorbent pad has a smaller area than the portion of food so that it is concealed by the portion of food and so that the portion of food is in contact with the raised portions of the tray around a perimeter of the absorbent pad;
- Figure 2 shows a perspective view of the tray shown in Figure 1 ;
- Figure 3 shows a close-up perspective view of a tray floor shown in Figures 1 and 2;
- Figure 4 shows a cross sectional view of the tray shown in Figures 1 - 3;
- Figure 5 shows a cross sectional view of the package shown in Figure 1;
- Figure 7 shows a plan view and a cross section of a mould according to an embodiment of the invention.
