Launched in North American last year, and in Europe in 2015, Sealed Air’s Cryovac® OptiDure™ Abuse Bag addresses product waste and inefficacy. Combining optical properties, a proprietary sealant, and overlapping sealing technology to reduce leakage, the OptiDure bag was a Diamond Finalist Award Winner in the 29thDuPont Awards for Packaging Innovation.

Used in vacuum-packaging applications, the bag is intended to help meat and cheese processors and retailers improve their operating efficiencies and brand image while sustainably addressing global food waste. OptiDure is a multilayer, coextruded structure that includes 75 μ/PVDC barrier.

It’s available in tubing widths from 200 mm to 450 mm. A factory seal can be applied as an end or side seal, depending on the customer application. For example, customers that use any type of automation in their loading process may prefer taped bags to feed through their machines. The same can be true for hand-pull applications to make it easier to remove bags from the carton. Bags may be printed or unprinted. A variety of sealing options are available, depending again upon customer application and product shape.
