The container size specified is to ensure automatic de-nesting through the machines during the sealing process where heat is automatically applied to the film lid at a temperature between +150⁰c to+170⁰c. This ensures no leaking of produce during the chill/freeze, and reheating cycle in the ovens at ward level. The containers, film and product labels must be able to withstand freezer storage temperatures at -22⁰c for up to periods of 6 months and be able to withstand regeneration temperatures of up to +150⁰c without compromising the food or label information attached.

Why this procedure was chosen
In 2011 the Cook Chill Production Units in Inverclyde Royal Hospital and Royal Alexandra Hospital were refurbished to operate as Cook Freeze Production Units. During this time the opportunity was taken to ensure that the food production process, as well as catering services equipment and working practice at ward level, was standardised to ensure ease of staff training, both at the food production units and at ward level for patient meal service.
