Amcor PrimeSeal™ Ovenable Flow Pack has been awarded ‘Flexible Plastic Pack of the Year’ at the UK Packaging Awards 2022. A lightweight flow pack, ideal for cooking food in the oven that meets both consumers’ and brands’ demand for optimised, convenient and more sustainable packaging.

Ovenable flow pack

Our new PrimeSeal™ Ovenable Flow Pack caught the attention of the UK Packaging Awards judges this year. It offers consumers convenience in the kitchen, while delivering lightweigthed packaging and excellent machinability to brands.

PrimeSeal™ Ovenable Flow Pack is suitable for meat, seafood, and ready meals. The ready-to-cook solution reduces packaging components from 4 to 1, resulting in a 50% lighter pack than the typical pack-with-tray solutions on the market.

Its four-side gusset-shaped design prolongs product freshness, reduces cooking time, and improves flavour when cooked. The ovenable flow pack also retains the cooking juice from the food to prevent any leakage, helping to minimise clean-up for home cooks. And the juices can be used to make a tasty gravy!

Ovenable flow pack time saving solution

Developed in collaboration with Rovipak Packaging Solutions Limited and Rockvale Poultry in the UK, the film runs at high speed on VFFS machines and allows brands to print directly on it, removing the need for labeling and secondary packaging.

By utilising Rovipak’s patented Quattrapak line, the new line minimises packaging waste, product contact handling and decreases labour requirement per line from 15 to 2-3 individuals, allowing workers to be reassigned to other valuable tasks.

It's an example of how the removal of materials from packs can offer the protein industry more sustainable, secure and convenient packaging. Together with our significant partners, Rovipack Packaging Solutions and Rockvale Poultry, we have developed this solution that equally meets the needs of customers and brands.
