Z103 Low Temperature Poultry Shrink Film | Cost-effective Replacement for Sealed Air CRYOVAC SES Shrink-End-Seal Overwrap Film
Product Introduction: Budget-friendly SES Equivalent from China's Leading POF Film Manufacturer
Z103 Low Temperature Poultry Shrink Film is independently developed by Zhejiang Zhongcheng (Stock Code: 002522), designed as a high-performance drop-in replacement for Sealed Air original CRYOVAC® Shrink-End-Seal (SES) overwrap shrink film. Engineered with multi-layer co-extrusion technology identical to SES core formulation, Z103 targets case-ready fresh & frozen poultry tray packaging for global meat processors, delivering matching performance at much lower landed cost than imported SES film.
All raw materials of Z103 pass FDA food contact substance safety assessment complying with US 21 CFR regulations, free from BPA, PFAS, phthalate and restricted harmful additives, fully eligible for US & EU poultry import customs clearance as required by FDA's food packaging regulatory rules.
Core Product Features Matching CRYOVAC SES Standard
Uniform Low-Temperature Shrink & Premium Skin-tight Glossy Presentation
Custom low-shrink-temperature formulation enables even uniform shrink at reduced heat tunnel temperature, delivering crystal-clear high-gloss finish and skin-tight wrap against poultry and trays, eliminating wrinkles and sharp creases. Perfect for irregular bone-in poultry cuts to boost retail shelf visibility, consistent with original SES uniform shrink performance.
Virtually Leak-proof End-seal for Cross-contamination Prevention
Optimized 3-side end-seal structure creates robust leak-resistant closure fitting PET, foam, molded paper and composite trays. Zero purge leakage during cold-chain transit and supermarket display stops cross-contamination from poultry purge, drastically reducing product spoilage and retail waste, the core advantage inherited from SES leak-proof tray seal design.
High Abuse & Puncture Resistance for Full Supply Chain Protection
Multi-layer coextruded construction grants outstanding tear and puncture resistance, surviving rough handling in cold-chain transportation and automated packing without rupture, securing full product integrity from factory to retail shelf same as high-durability original SES film.
Controlled Breathable Non-barrier Construction for Longer Poultry Shelf Life
Breathable non-barrier structure allows proper gas exchange to release natural odor and metabolic gas from fresh poultry, preventing package bloating and off-odor spoilage, optimized specifically for chilled & frozen case-ready poultry packaging just like SES breathable overwrap solution.
Full Process Flexibility & Easy HFFS Machine Compatibility
Z103 runs seamlessly on all mainstream HFFS horizontal form-fill-seal and shrink-end-seal equipment with quick machine changeovers without costly production line upgrade investment. Up to 10-color flexo print available for custom branding on overwrap tray surface. Recyclable grade with 30%+ post-consumer recycled (PCR) resin is available upon request, pre-qualified for How2Recycle store drop-off recycling logo.
Compliance & Sustainable Packaging
FDA Food Contact Approved: Full compliance with US FDA food contact regulations and China GB food safety standards for dual domestic & export market.
Eco-friendly Recyclable Option: Customizable PCR recycled content up to 30%+, categorized as recyclable PE packaging to meet global brand sustainability & carbon footprint reduction targets.
Primary Applications
Economical alternative to imported CRYOVAC SES overwrap film for automated HFFS bulk production.
