NITROGEN GENERATION FOR
MODIFIED ATMOSPHER
FOOD PACKAGING
Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) is the process of using high purity nitrogen to eliminate oxygen from food packaging in order to prevent spoilage and preserve freshness. Food products like chips, nuts, dairy, produce, and meat all benefit from MAP when it comes to preserving quality and increasing shelf-life. For a process like MAP where there is a constant need for high purity nitrogen, investing in an on-site nitrogen generator can significantly reduce the costs and time associated with the packaging process.
BENEFITS OF MODIFIED ATMOSPHERE FOOD PACKAGING
Extends shelf life
Preserves quality & freshness
Stops growth of harmful bacteria
Stops the growth of harmful bacteria, mold, and fungi
Advantages of On-Site
Nitrogen Generation for MAP
Consistency & Reliability
Generating the nitrogen needed for MAP on-site ensures there is always a consistent supply available to meet production demands
Flexibility
Nitrogen generators can be adjusted to the purity and flow rate specifications required for different food products, so one unit can be used for multiple applications
Cost Savings
On-site nitrogen generation is significantly more cost effective than acquiring bottled nitrogen from an industrial gas supplier
Convenient Supply
Controlling your nitrogen supply eliminates cost fluctuations and production delays that may occur when relying on a nitrogen delivery service
