APTAR WORKING ON IN-PACKAGE
ANTIMICROBIAL TO HELP AGAINST
PATHOGENS, SPOILAGE
A new in-package freshness helper and pathogen reducer product is on
its way to the produce industry, likely early in 2020.
Aptar Food + Beverage is in the final stages of testing an " first-of-itskind "
antimicrobial product to help keep food fresh and safe inside a sealed
package, said Aptar General Manager Neal Watson.
" The innovative product works inside a sealed tray by releasing a controlled
amount of an antimicrobial, " Watson said. " The antimicrobial will provide a
significant reduction in pathogens while maintaining the appearance, color
and taste of the fresh product inside. "
Watson added that beta testing has been very successful and the plan is
for broad release to the food industry in early 2020.
" We are excited about the potential of the new product to protect consumers,
processors and brands from the negative impacts of foodborne illness in
fresh cut produce, " he said.
In addition, Aptar is rebranding its Fresh-R-Pax tray absorbent system to be
called FreshWell. What makes the FreshWell system unique is an absorbent at
the bottom of the tray helps soak up purge and extends freshness and shelf life.
