In September, Sealed Air Corporation showcased its latest vacuum skin packaging for the fresh meat and seafood sectors during the annual China International Meat Industry Exhibition (CIMIE).
The new Cryovac® DM100 Darfresh® vacuum skin packaging machine is an entry level single-tray system that delivers up to 10 packs-per-minute, and comes with an auto eject feature for greater labor efficiency. The DM100 is a zero-scrap solution that delivers up to 40% in savings on packaging film and sends zero plastic processing scrap to landfill therefore reducing overall packaging spend. It occupies a small footprint and is ideal for small and medium-sized companies in Asia looking for a compact and easy-to-operate packaging system to kick-start their investment in vacuum skin packaging.
With the DM100, companies such as food processors and retailers can expect to reap all the benefits of the Cryovac® brand of Darfresh® on Tray system that include operational efficiency, food safety, shelf-life extension and brand differentiation. The Darfresh® brand of vacuum skin packaging has been a registered trademark since 1972 and is backed by many years of experience to help customers address critical packaging challenges. Coupled with the DM100, Sealed Air will provide customers with a total solution of equipment, packaging materials, application and technical support.
“With the current spike in fresh food consumption, the growth in protein consumption is a real growth opportunity for protein processors. However, driving topline growth may no longer be enough as there are constant pressures to reduce costs, maximise profits and drive product sustainability, all while dealing with changing consumer behaviors and retailer demands. Helping customers solve critical challenges is what we do best and the DM100 is a great example of providing customers with a one-stop shop of equipment, materials and technical support. Over the next 5 years, Asia is expected to be the biggest user of vacuum skin packaging globally, and the launch of the DM100 is timely for companies looking to deliver safe and quality food, quickly and efficiently,” said Onat Bayraktar, Vice President, Asia, Sealed Air.
Sealed Air is in business to protect and to solve critical packaging challenges. In 2019, it generated US$4.8 billion in sales.
