Tight-Chicken™ ensures that the bag fits the product like a second skin, completely eliminating the risk of leaks and ensuring that the product arrives at stores in compliance with the applicable hygiene regulations. Thanks to this innovative solution, developed using vertical wrapper machines, ULMA Packaging offers a system based on the Tight-Bag™ concept to its customers in the poultry sector; this system extracts air with no need for perforating the packaging, reducing the amount of plastic used, cutting the cost of labour and achieving a safer and more appealing product.
Optimisation with very appealing product and an impeccable finish with the flexible packaging for poultry
Tight-Chicken™ offers a very appealing packaging with an impeccable finish. It is a leak-proof solution that guarantees compliance with the applicable hygiene regulations for fresh, frozen or marinated chickens and chickens injected with sauce. With regards to processing the products, ULMA Packaging’s Tight-Chicken™ packaging solution offers clear advantages. It reduces the packaging surface area and number of staff required, in addition to reducing the time and cost of freezing products. The product can be loaded automatically or semi-automatically.
Compliance with hygiene regulations: no unpleasant smells or contaminating liquids for sustainable packaging
In addition, the packaging system guarantees compliance with the hygiene regulations and the optimum conditions, from the distribution chain to the store and until it arrives at consumers’ homes. All with no unpleasant smells and with no contaminating liquid leaks.
In addition to cutting the cost of labour, packaging chickens with Tight-ChickenTM allows to do away with metal clips and reduces the amount of plastic used when compared with traditional packaging solutions. ULMA’s innovative solution guarantees that the product’s weight remains unchanged, ensuring that its sale price remains the same and that the product does not need to be packaged again at the point of sale.

For poultry sector more ULMA solutions: pillow pack and pillow pack+Tight-Bag™
Tight-Chicken™ is ULMA Packaging’s latest development for the poultry sector, but it’s not the only one. The pillow pack presentation in vertical wrappers for whole chickens is another packaging option, similar to what the company currently offer with their horizontal wrappers.
The flexible packaging for poultry is suitable for fresh and frozen products, and is offered as a laminated film or LDPE, with or without gas, as in the case of the Tight-Chicken™ solution. The production rate is of up to 40 packages per minute.
The pillow pack+Tight-Bag™ solution ensures a tight fit of the packaging on the product, since the air is extracted from the inside of the package. As in the two other options, it is suitable for fresh and frozen products and the same types of film can be used.
