In the dynamic world of the agro-food industry, maintaining the freshness and quality of fresh produce is a constant challenge. Life Extension packaging has emerged as a revolutionary solution, integrating advanced technologies that optimize the preservation of perishable products. From fruits and vegetables to flowers and other agricultural goods, these packaging solutions provide tangible benefits for both producers and consumers.
What is Life Extension Packaging?
EV packaging incorporates technologies such as Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP), Oxygen Transmission Rate (OTR) Control, and Modified Humidity Control (MH). These techniques modify and regulate the gas composition inside the packaging, slowing respiration and delaying the deterioration of fresh products. This approach not only preserves freshness but also enhances logistics and reduces food waste.
Key Benefits of EV Packaging
Longer Shelf Life: packaging slows down decomposition and respiration processes, extending the freshness of fresh produce.
Preserved Sensory Quality: It maintains the original taste, color, and texture of the product for longer periods.
Reduced Waste: Extending freshness means less food waste in the supply chain and at home.
Facilitated Exportation: By prolonging shelf life, packaging is ideal for products destined for international markets.
Innovative EV Packaging Solutions
MAP Technology for Retail
Specifically designed for the retail market, these packages balance oxygen and carbon dioxide (O₂/CO₂) levels through strategic micro-perforations. This prevents decomposition and bad odors, ensuring an optimal atmosphere for products such as lettuce, broccoli, spinach, and asparagus.
Compostable Box Liners
Designed for export crops, these packages are made from compostable biomaterials. Their high water vapor permeability and humidity control prevent microorganism growth, contributing to environmental sustainability.
OTR Technology Films for Foodservice
Ideal for the foodservice sector, these films adjust their oxygen transmission rate according to the specific needs of each product. This ensures prolonged freshness and minimizes the need for additional interventions during transport or storage.
Transforming the Future of Packaging
The adoption of EV packaging marks a step toward a more efficient and sustainable future in the agro-food industry. With every innovation, brands like Gurpa Bio demonstrate that it is possible to combine freshness, functionality, and sustainability in a single product.
