Frozen food packaging: discover the advantages

flexible packaging for frozen products

When it comes to frozen food pouches, the first thing that comes to mind is durability. But there’s much more to it than that.

Pouches for frozen foods must provide an exceptional barrier against cold, moisture, oxygen, and light, while preserving the product’s organoleptic properties.

That’s why choosing the right packaging can make the difference between a well-preserved food and one at risk.

What’s the right packaging for frozen products?

When foods are stored at very low temperatures, the packaging material is put to the test. And it’s not just about withstanding the cold — the packaging must protect, preserve, and adapt to the logistical demands of the cold chain.

Flexible packaging: a key ally for low-temperature applications

Flexible doypack pouches are the ideal choice for packaging frozen foods. Thanks to their multi-layer structure and flexible materials, these pouches can withstand freezing and thawing cycles without breaking or deforming.

During the freezing process, large ice crystals can form, potentially compromising the packaging’s integrity. Rigid materials are more prone to damage, while flexible packaging adapts better to the physical changes of the contents, keeping food safe and protected.

Additionally, the stand-up design typical of doypacks helps optimize freezer space and simplifies storage.
