Vacuum-packing your chicken and shredded beef

Vacuum packing your chicken eIf you work with shredded proteins such as chicken or sun-dried meat, the vacuum process will be a great ally for your company.

We are manufacturers of these two lines of equipment (VM Line and DFC Line), and we know how they complement each other. This article is aimed at giving you a better understanding of the process and its benefits.

The process of vacuum-packing shredded meat and chicken

First you need to define the size of the packages. As a reference, you can use the size of the packaging you already use for distribution, since vacuum packaging can be customized to the desired size.

As for the type of packaging used in the process, these are barrier packages, and the most commonly used are Nylon Poly. They are easy to find and very affordable.

To vacuum-pack the product, it must not be hot, so if you want to pack it right after the shredding process, you can apply a quick cool-down to lower the temperature. This “thermal shock” is also good practice for better preservation and helps to avoid the risk of contamination.

Simply place the product inside the package, position it in the vacuum chamber (on top of the vacuum bars) and close the lid. The vacuum process is carried out automatically.

Benefits of vacuum-packing your shredded beef

The vacuum process has a number of advantages. For shredded beef and chicken, there are a few advantages that stand out, which we’ll cover in a moment:

1. Facilitates transportation and storage: the vacuum-packed product is hermetically sealed from the outside world. As a result, it doesn’t release residue or change, maintaining its quality and hygiene on site. This helps both when storing the shredded product and when transporting it for distribution.
2. Maintains quality and allows freezing: in the vacuum process the original quality of the product is maintained. You can also freeze it and it won’t create ice crystals, as it is isolated from the outside environment.
3. Eliminates waste: by increasing shelf life with vacuum, you reduce/eliminate waste as a result.
4. Adds even more value to your shredded meat: our shredders are able to deliver the best possible shredded meat, which naturally adds value to the product. With the vacuum process and its advantages, this added value is enhanced.

So, if you work with chicken or shredded meat, our suggestion is to implement the vacuum process for your company, as it will offer several returns.
