All about Vacuum Skin Packaging
Vacuum Skin Packaging is a highly efficient packaging film with excellent optical properties. It extends the shelf-life of fresh products like meat up to three weeks. Therefore, it reduces the food wastage from 12% to 3% for a beef sirloin steak. This is achieved among other functions by a high oxygen and moisture barrier.
Due to the attractive, clear packaging, customers can inspect and touch food products without spoiling them. The material usage is reduced compared to conventional Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP).
