MAP is food packaging in which the earth’s normal breathable atmosphere has been modified in some way. Usually combined with lowered temperatures, it is a highly effective method for extending the shelf-life of food.
The technology of MAP TRAY (Modified Atmosphere Packaging) can artificially controls the proportion of gases (oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen etc.) in the package with the aim of achieving keeping-freshness storage.
Once a fruit, vegetable or animal product is harvested or slaughtered it remains a suitable environment for bacteria which continue to function using the available carbohydrate, protein, fat and nutrients.
Depending on product, shelf-life can be usefully extended by between 50% and 500% using MAP techniques. This means that waste is minimised and re-stocking and ordering can become more flexible.
It is microwavable, and can be stored in minus degree if needed.
We can make the tray in any different colors or customized design.
