wraps


Explanation:
The word is from a description of a process following food preparation. It looks like it means 'wraps' as it describes food being protected and preserved with labeling.

Example sentence(s):
  • Se entarima y pasa a enhielado por cama de cajas y etiquetando, una vez completada la tarima se coloca una bolsa que la cubre, se emplaya, se fleja y coloca en una cámara de conservación.
  • It's covered and passed to a freezer (cooling area) in boxes for labeling. Once the stage is completed it's placed in a bag which covers it before it is wrapped then sealed and placed in a conservation or preserving area.
