Nitrogen Flush Polyfilm
Nitrogen flush PE film is a type of polyethylene (PE) film specifically designed for packaging applications where the use of nitrogen flushing is employed to preserve the freshness and extend the shelf life of perishable products.
Here's how it works:
- Polyethylene Film: PE film is a flexible and versatile packaging material known for its durability, moisture resistance, and sealing properties. It is widely used in various packaging applications, including food packaging.
- Nitrogen Flushing: Nitrogen flushing involves replacing the air inside a package with nitrogen gas before sealing it. Nitrogen is an inert gas that does not react with the packaged product. By displacing the oxygen in the package, nitrogen helps to create a modified atmosphere that slows down the oxidation process, thus extending the shelf life of the product.
- Barrier Properties: PE film used for nitrogen flush packaging is engineered to provide an effective barrier against moisture, gases, and external contaminants. This helps to maintain the quality and freshness of the packaged product by preventing moisture loss, oxidation, and microbial growth.
- Compatibility: PE film is compatible with nitrogen flushing processes commonly used in packaging machinery. It can be easily sealed using heat sealing or other sealing methods, ensuring airtight packaging and efficient nitrogen retention.
- Applications: Nitrogen flush PE film is used for packaging a wide range of perishable food products, including snacks, coffee, nuts, dried fruits, grains, and baked goods. It helps to preserve the color, flavor, texture, and nutritional value of the packaged items, thereby reducing food waste and extending the product's shelf life.
Overall, nitrogen flush PE film is an effective packaging solution for maintaining product freshness and quality, particularly for perishable food items that require extended shelf life.
