System and apparatus for shielding a flexible microwave package

A microwave package formed of a flexible laminate, said package comprising:

• a laminate structure comprising a plurality of compartments, said laminate structure comprising:
• a first sealing layer adjacent an interior volume of said microwave package;
• a first outer layer adjacent an exterior of said microwave package;
• and
• a first grid layer coupled to at least one of said first sealing layer and said first outer layer, said grid layer comprising a plurality of grid members formed of an electroconductive material surrounding a plurality of spaced apertures;
• a laminate cover comprising:
• a second sealing layer adjacent the interior volume of said microwave package;
• a second outer layer adjacent the exterior of said microwave package;
• and
• a second grid layer coupled to at least one of said second sealing layer and said second outer layer, said second grid layer comprising a plurality of grid members formed of an electroconductive material surrounding a plurality of spaced apertures;
• and
• a seal configured to join adjacent edges of said laminate structure and said laminate cover to define the interior volume sealable from the exterior of said microwave package, where
• said grid members of said first grid layer are spaced apart from said grid members of said second grid layer such that electrical discharge between said first grid layer and said second grid layer is prevented when said flexible package is exposed to electromagnetic radiation in a microwave range.

• an outer layer adjacent an exterior of said microwave package;
• and
• a grid layer extending between said sealing layer and said outer layer, said grid layer comprising a plurality of grid members formed of an electroconductive material surrounding a plurality of spaced apertures;
• and
• a seal configured to join adjacent edges of said laminate structure to define the interior volume sealable from the exterior of said microwave package, where
• said grid members of said grid layer on a first side of the interior volume are spaced apart from said grid members of said grid layer on a second side of the interior volume opposite the first side such that electrical discharge between said grid layer and said grid layer is prevented when said flexible package is exposed to electromagnetic radiation in a microwave range.
