*All the results shared here are based on empirical data and may vary according to the quality of the product to be packaged, its manipulation, its transportation and storage according to the Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). Additionally, the results depend on the cleaning conditions of the thermoforming machine and its maintainance, according to the technical guide.
Dow, ULMA and partners may collaborate and participate in the development of all packages mentioned. The objective of this comparison is to make the industry think and analyze profoundly what makes sense in each case. If the product is not fresh chicken, bring your challenge to us and we will help solve it.
