SanFresh MAP Gas® packing

Longer shelf life for seafood

 

-CO2 inhibit bacterial growth and keeps count low
-CO2 reduces pH of the product
-Mixing CO2 with N2 and/or O2 will give longer shelf life

- Low storage temperature, +2C or lower, and hygiene is important to have a good shelf life.

-Filling with Nitrogen removes oxygen and makes the environment less friendly for many unwanted bacterias.
