Food Processing, Beverage, and Packaging
Our USDA-accepted products can be used in various food service applications.
Our food processing and packaging mesh products collection is available in various configurations, including thicknesses and hole geometries, allowing unique food processing advantages. These thermoplastic products, made from FDA-Grade and USDA-accepted resins, can be supplied by the roll, in cut sheets, or as bags for specific application requirements.
Naltex™ Extruded Netting is available in many styles, ranging from heavy-duty to lightweight, oriented mesh. Unlike traditional trays, Naltex™ is 100% non-stick, can be re-used, and can be discarded after multiple uses. Naltex is commonly used for dehydrating food products.
Our Conwed™ Marinating Net is designed for poultry marination and packaging. This mesh can be supplied as roll-stock or heat-sealed at one end to form high-strength bags that can be wicketed.
Conwed™ Apertured Film is an extremely thin, porous mesh with clean and consistent geometric openings. The blue-colored film provides easy visibility to help avoid contamination. Our cheese nets are produced from high-density polyethylene, giving them good tensile strength. We produce the nets from virgin resin in enclosed, clean conditions on a line approved for medical production. This avoids spun cotton or muslin dust and contamination, often produced in open, uncontrolled environments. Its closed hexagonal structure means no threads or loose fibers.
The food processing and packaging mesh can easily be heat-sealed or sewn into bags. Our food-safe nets are utilized for the production of a variety of foods, including:
- Marinated Poultry
- Packaged Citrus
- Boil-in-Bag Pasta Pouches
- Cheese Net
- Smoked Seafood
- Ready-to-use Spice Bags
- Dried Cereal Fruits
- Sun-Dried Tomatoes
- Crackers
- Beef Jerky
The FDA-grade, USDA-accepted resins can withstand various processes and temperatures.

Our netting is made of resins certified by USDA/FDA standards and is suitable for packaging and steaming seafood.
