Hands off the pasta at H20
Increased demand for its range of frozen pasta ready meals has led Manchester-based H20 to install a D2700 R tray sealer from D2 Europack. The compact unit, part of a package that also includes polypropylene containers and lidding film, has already helped increase capacity at H20 by 25%.
The tray sealer is being used to heat-seal trays filled with H20's cannelloni, lasagne and tagliatelle, which are then frozen for delivery to hotels, restaurants and catering companies.
The white, half gastronome-size containers are currently delivered on a three-weekly basis. Previously H20 had used D2 Europack's aluminium foil containers with preformed hoods, which were applied by hand.
The D2700 R tray sealers can be rented as part of a pay-as-you-go or pay-as-you-profit rental scheme.
Rentals can be tailored to meet individual production requirements including short runs, low speed lines or seasonal fluctuations. As part of the package, customers can also hire individual profiles or die sets for D2 Europack trays.
