Greetings,
I'm a new member, and grateful to have the opportunity to post this question.
We are market testing a ready-to-make recipe kit. The PET prototype tray has been thermoformed with compartments to hold pre-measured fresh ingredients and sauce packets etc.
When we go into production the trays will be vacuum packed with gas flush, but we are not yet tooled up for that. However for the purpose of our focus group testing, we would like to put the product into the hands of participants with a clear film over the top that (if only temporarily) appears to seal in the ingredients.
We are hoping to find a way to do this manually without costly machinery, and would like to avoid stretch wrap as we don't think it will look good. We have consulted with some packaging material suppliers, but have thus far not come up with a solution.
Can anyone suggest a film and a process that we might employ in-house? See image of the tray attached.
Thank you,
Eggmeng
