Active and Modified Atmosphere Packaging Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2016 – 2024

In the presence of normal air, food products such as meat, poultry, fish, fruits, vegetables, and bakery products perish quickly due to biochemical reaction of oxygen with products, and the growth of microorganisms, which degrade the product quality.

The biochemical reactions or effects of microorganisms tend to change the color, taste, texture, and smell of the product leading to overall deterioration in the quality of product. Cold storage facilities, for sure, slow down the undesirable changes in product quality, but do not necessarily increase their shelf-life with regard to retail distribution and display purposes.

In active and modified atmosphere packaging, edible goods and food products are packaged by bringing modification in their surrounding atmosphere by creating vacuum, flushing the optimum amount of gases, or by controlling permeability of the pack from outside gases and humidity. Thus, the primary objective of active and modified atmosphere packaging is to avoid and reduce product degradations that may be caused either by biochemical & enzymatic reactions or microbial actions over the product. By this method, the preservation of food can be done in its fresh state for a longer duration of time, without utilizing other costly preservation techniques such as canning, freezing, dehydration, and other processes.

The packaged food and pre-cut produce market, though unconsolidated, is a multi-billion dollar industry, which is experiencing high growth due to consumers’ growing interest in natural and organic products. Active and modified atmosphere packaging plays an important role in ensuring the freshness and quality of the products.

In view of the high rise in consumer demand for fresh-cut organic and natural products, demand for active and modified atmosphere packaging is expected to grow significantly over the forecast...
