Packaging for Beans

Innovative Green Bean Packaging, Better Results

Our innovative packaging technology combines modified atmosphere and humidity control, effectively slowing down the respiration rate, reducing weight loss, and suppressing microbial decay of green beans. Beans are particularly sensitive to excess moisture and we offer unique film structures with tailored water vapor transmission rates (WVTR) that deliver unparalleled condensation control and moisture management for better product visibility and mitigation of microbial decay and chilling injury.
