Optimizing High-Speed Shrink Wrapping of Frozen Pizzas
Frozen pizza remains one of the most ubiquitous foods in the typical American household. Convenience, low price and a continually growing assortment of options have made frozen pizza a favorite heat-and-serve choice for households constrained by time and budgets.
According to the American Frozen Food Institute (AFFI), McLean, Va., 66% of households in the United States consumed frozen pizza in 2010. With total sales reaching $3.2 billion in that year, this accounts for almost 10% of U.S. mass-market frozen food sales. In fact, the United States is the largest frozen pizza market in the world, representing approximately 43% of global market value.
