Cryovac® Flavour Mark™ Retort Pouches

Application: Shelf-stable low acid foods for foodservice distribution

Designed by: Cryovac Food Solutions, Sealed Air Corporation

Major Benefits: Flavour Mark™ shelf-stable technology represents an improvement over traditional #10 cans by providing a durable, flexible pouch option for processors and foodservice operators seeking greater flavor and texture in retorted products.

Highlights:

• Great tasting, chef-quality dishes can be prepared that require little more than re-heating and plating, and have superior consistency and quality compared to heat-abused canned products.
• Because of its lower profile, food does not take as long to heat in a flexible pouch as it does in a can, so it endures less heat abuse during the retort process. This results in better food flavor, texture and quality.
• Ideal for foodservice operators with limited refrigerator space and offers a faster preparation time (no thawing) to respond quickly to customer needs. Clear pouches allow easy identification of the food product inside and there are fewer product safety concerns due to lack of freeze/thaw issues.
• Pouches offer greater cost effectiveness, are easier to use and safer to handle than metal cans.
