Food packaging - Import export

The gas barrier properties of an EVALâ„¢ layer ensure that the flavour and the quality of the food are well preserved for an extended period of time. An EVALâ„¢ layer also keeps the Modified Atmosphere and aromas inside the package, extending the shelf life of fresh food. EVALâ„¢ offers the following benefits: outstanding gas barrier properties prevents oxygen from penetrating the package gives fresh food longer shelf life without antioxidants locks aromas in extends shelf life protects sensitive vitamin content protects against oustside odour and contamination like MOSH/MOAH mineral oils

Food that is presented in cups made of thin, crystal-clear plastic, looks particularly appetising. Crystal-clear barrier cups and trays are a fast-growing segment in the packaging market. The most important requirement for these thermoformed sheet packaging is that it protects the flavour of the contents, keeping it fresh for a long period of time, even in non-refrigerated conditions. Kuraray has especially developed EVALâ„¢ types T and J to provide an excellent oxygen barrier and a good transparency and to ensure that the food retains its flavour and colour for a long period of time. Even under deep forming conditions, these two EVALâ„¢ types provide a good and even layer distribution, which makes them particularly suited for thermoformed packaging applications. Coextruded multilayer thermoformed cups with an oxygen barrier layer of EVOH can easily be pasteurised and show a remarkable resistance against deformation upon thermal treatment. What an EVALâ„¢ barrier layer offers: keeps o

Food packaging should not only keep oxygen out and lock aroma and MAP gases in, but it should also look attractive at the point of purchase to give customers an extra incentive. Packaging has to be light in weight yet strong enough to maintain all its powerful characteristics during transport or handling.
