Promens Food Packaging have just completed successful trials with a major fish processor supplying two major UK retailers.
The trials took place in two stages during summer 2008, using Promens tray sealing machines and packaging.
The flexibility of Promens providing free loan machines for a two week trial periods, helped in securing the business.
Promens engineers installed the equipment and gave advice on packing fish 'in ice', the traditional route, as well as advice and engineering support with MAP, (Modified Atmosphere). With the MAP route, ice can be removed from the packaging, and trials have shown that product quality and shelf life is improved.
Another benefit to the customer is vastly reduced storage and reduced fire risk now that they have moved away from expaned polystyrene containers. The Promens Fish Packaging System takes only 10% of the space of conventional expanded polystyrene packaging and in addition to this, Promens believe it to be the strongest bulk fish pack on the market.
On a daily basis, Promens are working with fish processors across Europe, delivering similar packaging systems and extended shelf life solutions to Primary and Seconday Fish processing.
