Flexible packaging materials used in the food industry represents a USⁱ$6 billion market. The food industry seeks packaging materials that will increase shelf life and present the food products to the market in the best possible condition. Packaging material suppliers are active in research to meet this market need.

This new anti-microbial food packaging technology significantly improves the safety and shelf-life of fresh perishable foods, including meat and dairy products.
