Retail and foodservice absorbent pads sit under meat, seafood, fruit, ready meals and takeaway portions to pull exudate and condensation away from the product — keeping the pack dry on the shelf, in the display case and in delivery. The range covers cut sheets for hand-packed trays, continuous roll-form pads for automated tray-sealing lines, and biodegradable grades.
Selection starts with three inputs: tray dimensions, packing method (manual or automated) and the product’s moisture load, which sets pad size and absorbent weight. Sheets are cut to the tray and packed flat; rolls are slit to line width and interleaved so a sealing line never stops for a sheet change. Tell us the tray format, line speed and target shelf life and we will recommend a construction and send samples.
FAQ
- Sheets or rolls? Sheets suit hand-packed and low-volume trays; continuous interleaved rolls suit automated tray-sealing and thermoforming lines, where they remove sheet-change stops.
- Are the pads suitable for food contact? The pads use food-contact grade materials; material documentation is provided offline to support your market’s compliance review.
- Are biodegradable or plastic-free options available? Yes — biodegradable fresh pads replace conventional film with compostable constructions for retailers and brands moving away from single-use plastic.
- Can size, colour and absorbency be customised? Yes. Dimensions, pad weight and absorbency, colour and print are made to order for the tray and product type.
- Can we trial them on our line first? Yes. Send tray dimensions, product type and line speed; sample sheets or roll sections are arranged for feeding and absorption trials.
