Modified Atmosphere Packaging

First of all, the packaging volume of modified atmosphere packaging is usually two to three times larger than other packaging forms, so logistics costs are relatively high. The air is replaced by a mixture of nitrogen, oxygen and carbon dioxide in the packaging, which can reduce the rate of food spoilage, maintain food freshness, ensure safety, and extend shelf life. Moreover, the scientific gas ratio can make the food in a state of excellent color saturation, making it more attractive.

 

 

Skin packaging

Compared with modified atmosphere packaging, the shelf life of vacuum skin packaging is longer than that of modified atmosphere packaging. At the same time, the vacuum skin packaging can be exquisite and compact, in line with the modern aesthetics, while ensuring the quality of the product. This type of packaging is usually applied to some high-quality beef, seafood, etc.

 

 

In general, no matter what kind of packaging, manufacturers need to make a reasonable positioning analysis of their brand products to meet more consumer demand and satisfaction. Therefore, choosing the right packaging is very important.
