40 lb
Block Pouches
Preserving Shape, Sealing in the Freshness
Gusseted or regular bags work trouble free
on your manual or automatic towers
Overview
Technology
A pioneer in pouch design, Plastopil manufactures 40 lb
block pouches specially designed for vacuum packaging
of non-maturing cheese (i.e. cheddar) that enable the
traditional look and feel, while preserving the quality of
the cheese.
Plastopil’s films are made using nine-layer co-extrusion
blown film technology. Each layer is specifically designed to
achieve different properties. We also put extra care into the
pouch creation stage, paying specific attention to required
dimension and shape, assuring a superior quality.
These special pouches combine a correct barrier level for
optimizing the shelf life of each cheese with a strong seal
and mechanical properties.
The 40 lb pouches come in two versions: regular
(suitable for manual loading) and gusseted (for both manual
and automatic loading on CL20 machines).
