Home Products Food & Beverage Packaging Non-Barrier Shrink Bags CRYOVAC® Brand Recycle-Ready Breathable Shrink Bags

CRYOVAC® Brand Recycle-Ready Breathable Shrink Bags

Breathable / Permeable Shrink Bags

Protect food quality and safety of poultry and produce with these oxygen-permeable shrink bags.

  • Reduce Product Waste, Re-work

Strong seals and puncture resistance reduce the mess and loss caused by leakers during processing.

  • Optimize Freshness, Appearance

Superior shrink ensures tight, uniform fit, and oxygen permeability helps maintain freshness while preventing odors.

Overview

Primary packaging for fresh foods, including seafood, poultry, and produce, requires breathable, non-barrier films that allow oxygen and carbon dioxide to pass through the film structure.

These recycle-ready multi-ply bags thicken and toughen during hot water shrink, resulting in a durable package that is resistant to punctures and other abuse found in today’s cold chain.

Permeable materials help eliminate natural confinement odors, while easy-open features remove the need for scissors and knives, enhancing consumer and food safety. Our breathable shrink bags are designated as recycle-ready, RIC 4 PE.
