The post 2 Rolls Universal Printed Peelable Lidding Film 140mm wide for PP, PET & Board trays etc appeared first on SystemPAK.

The 260mm x 160mm – 1 Cavity Heat Sealing Die is essential for Top Seal.  Sealing Dies enable the appropriate size of the tray to be seated in the machine before the film is applied and heat sealed to the tray. There are multiple Sealing Dies, each suited to different-sized containers.

One of the main benefits of top-seal is that the container/tray unit price can be a lot lower than a similar-sized container and snap-on lid. Aside from saving money, top-seal trays provide an exciting and diverse opportunity to package products in a different way than containers and lids as they can be oven-safe, can have multiple cavities, and can be packaged together in seconds with an automatic sealing machine.
