Packaging Secrets

How is it that all the components in an MRETM remain 

shelf stable for up to 3 years? A large part of each 

component’s shelf stability is due to the packaging in 

which the food is contained. For example, all MRETM 

entrées are composed of a quad laminate material. 

This material has four layers — polyester, nylon, 

foil, & polyolefin — that work together to produce 

extremely high barrier properties to protect the food 

against microbial, chemical and physical deterioration 

under extreme environments. Ongoing research is 

looking at using a material that will remove the foil 

and reduce the weight of the packaging.
