VACUUM PACKAGING WITH PRESHRINKING ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method for vacuum shrink packaging a product is provided that includes the steps of placing the product in a heat shrinkable thermo- plastic bag; then shrinking the bag in a heated gaseous medium, while partially constricting the mouth of the bag to cause ballooning of the bag, further provided that the constricting is selected such that shrink- age of the bag overcomes the ballooning to collapse the bag onto the product; and then placing the bag in a vacuum chamber followed by vacu- umizing and in-chamber sealing, further provided that the rate of vacu- umizing is limited to substantially prevent reballooning of the bag. Associated apparatus for carrying out the method is also provided.
