Salmon packed with CFS ShrinkPak System

For producers who want to present their product in perfect shape, the CFS ShrinkPak System is interesting. It combines the benefits of a thermoformer such as automation, easy handling and the continuous packaging process with the advantages of CFS shrinkfilm material - high shrinkage up to 40%, perfect product presentation and excellent barrier properties. This leads to cost savings of up to 30% compared to traditional shrink bag handling.

As the CFS ShrinkPak System gives perfect product presentation, it does not matter if the product is round rectangular or square and it is very suitable for fish. The in-line packaging process is very hygienic and as there is no danger of product contamination based on manual handling, product shelf life can be increased.

The size of the line is always customised and can vary from a small machine for end consumer packs up, to big systems for transport and ripening packs. Along with the machine and the material, a CFS performance guarantee is included. This means the customer receives full technical support over the whole contract period.
