Sealable dome lid
Following recent product innovation in skin and shrink films, KM Packaging has launched another lidding solution targeting premium foods – especially those which are bulky or awkwardly shaped.
The KM KDome is a clear, sealable dome lid fastened to the base with a sealant that has been developed to suit either aluminium or CPET trays. The company worked with tray sealing machinery specialist Proseal UK to develop and test the sealant technology.
Ideal for multiple applications from premium ready meals to gourmet products, including joints of meat such as whole chickens – notoriously challenging to display in a clear, attractive package – the KDome promises significant improvements to up market packaging. Previously, dome lids were clipped onto the tray, leading to leakage and, as a result, poor shelf life and spoilage.
In addition to the bespoke seal, customers can also specify a gas flush when using the Kdome.
