Summary

Packaging materials for precooked meals and food containers treated by microwaves are reviewed.

Desirable features, in particular the use of different materials, are examined: metallic containers (aluminium or steel-based alloys), plastic containers and bags, plastic reinforced cardboard containers, plates and dishes made of plastic, glass, vitroceramic, porcelain, pottery and earthenware.
