NorAbsorbit flexible microwave packaging

NorAbsorbit is a flexible microwave packaging that allows greasy, breaded or bread-like foods to be prepared in the microwave so that they are crisp and tasty. The packaging absorbs both moisture and grease during cooking in the microwave and the food is thus cooked directly in the sales packaging until it is crispy. Preparation is therefore more convenient, shorter and cleaner than conventional frying in a pan.

The moisture and grease that develop during microwave cooking pass through a perforated sealing layer and are absorbed and retained by the packaging’s inner layer. Even unbreaded foods such as bacon are said to become much crispier than with conventional microwave technology. In contrast to the frying of bacon and similar foods in the pan, no preparation is necessary; time-consuming washing and cleaning afterwards are also eliminated.

NorAbsorbit also has insulating thermal properties that reduce the outside temperature of the packaging after microwave cooking, making it possible to touch the bag after cooking. Combined with easy-opening features that can be integrated, this ensures quick and easy removal of the cooked food and makes it suitable for ‘to-go’ applications for snack food items. An additional steam venting label can also be integrated - this allows for especially gentle steam cooking of the food, preserving the natural flavour and the vitamins. In addition, the entire surface of the packaging can be printed and it has an appealing design - for example, a window that allows the consumer to view the food.
