Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An interior-mountable pressure relief valve for packages containing food products such as coffee that normally tend to out-gas. The relief valve of the present invention can be made by thermoforming a pocket of a barrier type of semi-rigid film that has a heat seal membrane on one side. An indent can be made in the bottom of this pocket to receive a filter medium that covers an aperture in the bottom of the pocket. The filter medium can be heat-staked to the pocket. A pressure relief valve known in the art containing a base layer, a pair of rails and a flexible membrane can be placed in the pocket. This valve and pocket assembly can be can be treated with a mesh membrane that is heat sealable to the seal side to prevent disassembly or contamination. The product can then be wound on a level wound spool for shipping to an end user. The end user can take the carrier tape and dispense it into a single piece dose and then heat seal the carrier to the inside wall of the package.
