The steam venting system has been designed for ready to cook fresh, chilled and processed food products that require an air-tight valve.

Amcor ProtectValve packs also use Amcor’s P-Plus modified atmosphere technology and can be placed directly into the microwave without the need for piercing or tearing of the packs.

The system has been developed to save time for the consumer - for example cutting cooking time compared to conventional hob-cooking, and ensure more vitamins are retained in the product and not lost through boiling. The 72 micron laminate film, which is sealed to a Polypropylene tray, has a special airtight flexible valve as an integral part of the film which controls the venting of the pack when pressure builds up during cooking.

The special laminate film incorporates a peelable seal layer, which ensures that consumers find the packs very easy to open.
