PAYSON, UT – Consumers want convenience, but not at the cost of health. With the convergence of both high in consumer demand, retailers looking to offer home chefs a quick solution to cooking fresh vegetables will want to keep Temkin International’s latest innovation top of mind. This year, Temkin International, a leading producer of flexible film packaging, announced an innovative new smart label steamable technology, U-Vent™, providing consumers a better way to microwave.

According to a press release, U-Vent is different from other microwave technologies because it provides a leak-free seal—available for pouches, rear-weld bags, flat bags, and roll stock—perfect for storage. U-Vent is also temperature activated to relieve internal bag pressure, which allows steam to build inside and the fresh produce to fully cook without concerns that the seal will burst. U-Vent can even be micro-perforated to a specific O2 flux to function for both modified atmosphere control and as a microwave vent.

U-Vent Smart Label

Not to mention, U-Vent is efficient, cost-effective, and safe thanks to technology removing the need to pierce or cut the steamer bag before heating and is produced with materials that readily accept printing inks.

Since 1980, Temkin International has provided customers with packaging products and manufactures premium custom and stock flexible film packaging that is fully adjustable for material, size, and print.

Perfect for the produce aisle and cross-merchandisable, Temkin International’s U-Vent is sure to fly off of retail shelves.
