Presentation
will discuss how to reduce waste through active packaging.
Multisorb Technologies(www.multisorb.com) announces
it will be exhibiting at PACK EXPO International 2012, October 28-31, in
Chicago, IL. In addition to showcasing its sorbent systems and solutions, Multisorb
will use this processing and packaging show as a forum to present an on-booth
symposium, “Sustainability & Increased Profits through Active Packaging” on
October 29 at 10:00 am.
The
presentation will focus on the benefits of using active packaging solutions to
extend shelf life and reduce waste. It will demonstrate how a shift to active
packaging can increase profitability while allowing manufacturers, processors,
and retailers to be more eco-conscious.
Multisorb
will also be showcasing its Drop-In, Fit-In, and Built-In active packaging
solutions.
A
Drop-In solution consists of an optimized spooled sorbent in the form of a
packet. FreshPax® Oxygen Absorbers can be easily placed directly
into the product packaging. For automated or semi-automated placement of the
sorbent into packaging or for extending handling time, Multisorb offers sorbent
systems. FreshPax and StripPax® Systems include the respective sorbent
packets and a sorbent dispenser that has been engineered specifically for that
sorbent, providing unmatched reliability. Multisorb also offers a Continuous
Reliability Program that provides a variety of preventative maintenance plans
to ensure continuity of your packaging line.
Multisorb
will be displaying the APA-500 and APA-300; both of which are components of the
MAPLOX® Program. The semi-automated APA-500 low-speed dispenser drops packets
on demand from an operator’s signal. Sorbent capacity is protected through use
of a fully enclosed cabinet and is available with dry air or gas purge. The
manual APA-300 is ideal for hand placement of FreshPax CR packets into master
bags of fresh meat. The sorbent packets are moved through the dispenser using
an innovative magnetic system. A nitrogen purge system optimizes packet
capacity during storage.
Multisorb’s
Fit-In solutions eliminate loose sachets as the sorbent virtually becomes part
of the packaging. Fit-In solutions include: FreshCard™ Oxygen
Absorbing Cards, FreshMax® Self-Adhesive Oxygen Absorbers and
DesiMax® Self-Adhesive Sorbents.
Multisorb’s
Built-In solutions incorporate the sorbent formulation directly into packaging
material for containers and films.
