1. 60% of Food Brands Lose Sales Due to Leaky Retort Bags – Here's How We Fix It

Imagine preparing a meal with a pre-cooked chicken dish, only to find the retort bag torn open during transport. You're not alone. A 2024 report by Packaging World revealed that 60% of food brands using retort packaging face leakage issues, leading to product waste and customer dissatisfaction.

Leakage in retort bags often stems from poor material selection or inadequate sealing. For example, low-quality polyethylene (PE) layers may crack under high-temperature sterilization (121–135°C), while insufficiently bonded aluminum foil can delaminate, exposing the contents to air and moisture.

At Cailyn, we use triple-layer PET/AL/CPP structures with EVOH barrier layers to ensure durability. Our retort bags withstand temperatures up to 135°C without tearing or leaking. Additionally, we employ UV-cured adhesives for stronger lamination, reducing delamination risks by 80%.

2. 70% of Consumers Demand Shelf-Stable Meals – Can Your Packaging Deliver?

You've invested in a premium ready-to-eat meal, but its short shelf life forces customers to refrigerate it immediately. According to Nielsen's 2023 Shelf Life Report, 70% of global consumers prefer shelf-stable meals that don't require refrigeration. Yet many brands still rely on traditional plastic containers with limited barrier properties.

Shelf stability depends on high-barrier materials like aluminum foil (PET/AL/CPP) and EVOH-coated films. These materials block oxygen and moisture, extending shelf life to 12–24 months at room temperature. For example, our EVOH-laminated retort bags reduce oxygen permeability by 90%, ensuring meals stay fresh and safe.

Your brand doesn't have to sacrifice convenience for quality. Let's help you meet consumer demands with packaging that outperforms the competition.

3. 50% of Retort Bags Fail Post-Vacuum Sealing – Here's Why Yours Should Be Different

You've vacuum-sealed a batch of retort-packed sausages, only to discover air trapped inside after sealing. A 2023 study by Food Packaging Journal found that 50% of retort bags fail vacuum sealing due to poor material flexibility, leading to spoilage and recalls.

The issue lies in material rigidity. Traditional aluminum-foil laminates lack the flexibility needed for tight vacuum seals, leaving gaps where air can seep in. Our nylon (BOPA)-based retort bags offer superior flexibility and conform to irregular product shapes, ensuring airtight seals. Combined with heat-seal CPP layers, they achieve 99.9% vacuum efficiency.
