Advanced Modified Atmosphere/Modified Humidity Packaging Solutions for Shelf-Life Extension

Blueberries face a delicate journey. They are susceptible to weight loss, prone to microbial decay, and quick to lose their prized bloom during long-term storage and lengthy supply chains. Traditional blueberry packaging often falls short, resulting in unrealized potential and diminished profits.

At StePacPPC, we see the potential for a different future. We design packaging that actively preserves the freshness of blueberries for up to 45 days, leading to better quality and reduced waste during extended storage and shipment. Blueberries arrive as vibrant and as fresh as the moment they were picked, even after weeks of transit across oceans and continents.

Our modified atmosphere packaging solutions preserve quality throughout storage and shipment with proven results.

Innovative Blueberry Packaging, Better Results

Our advanced packaging technology combines modified atmosphere and humidity control, effectively slowing down the respiration rate, inhibiting the production and action of ethylene, and suppressing microbial decay. Additionally, we offer unique film structures with variable water vapor transmission rates (WVTR) that deliver condensation control for better product visibility and mitigation of microbial decay.
