Summary bullets
- Match lid film, cup/tray stock, contents, and service (hot fill, cold, retort, EtO) before a trial.
- Call out peel level and coating transfer; sealer heat / pressure / dwell matter as much as chemistry.
- End-use paths differ: dry food, dairy, jelly/citrus, greasy foods, dual-ovenable, autoclave, retort, medical.
- Use FDA citations that fit the lid, food type, and conditions — not a one-grade-fits-all pick.
