Enhancing Shelf Life: The Role of VMPET Film in Food Preservation

According to statistics, about 40%-50% of fruits and vegetables are wasted every year due to low preservation technology. Developing solutions to extend food shelf life and address food waste has far-reaching implications. VMPET film is a recent new packaging technology that not only enhances the quality of fruits and vegetables and extends their shelf life, but also provides higher safety. This article will introduce the role of VMPET film in food preservation.

Application of VMPET film in Food Packaging

VMPET film is widely used as a protective film on dry and puffed food packaging such as cookies. It has the characteristics of both plastic film and metal. Aluminizing the surface of the film serves to shield light and prevent ultraviolet irradiation, which not only prolongs the shelf life of the contents, but also improves the brightness of the film. It replaces aluminum foil to a certain extent, and also has inexpensive, beautiful, and better barrier properties.

Barrier Properties of VMPET Film

VMPET film is widely used in the food packaging field, mainly due to its excellent barrier properties. Its thin built-in aluminum layer effectively blocks the intrusion of moisture and oxygen, thus ensuring that the food inside the package remains fresh and of high quality. This barrier greatly reduces the risk of spoilage and waste, keeping food in optimal condition for longer.

Flavor and Nutritional Protection

VMPET film guarantees the flavor and nutritional value of the food. When food is exposed to oxygen and moisture, its ingredients are prone to oxidation and degradation, resulting in loss of taste, texture, and nutritional value. By effectively blocking these unfavorable factors, VMPET film minimizes the possibility of food degradation, allowing food to maintain its original flavor and nutrition for a longer period of time.

Significantly Longer Shelf Life

The application of VMPET film in food packaging significantly extends the shelf life of various perishable food products. It creates a stable environment inside the package, effectively slowing down the rate of deterioration and microbial growth, keeping the food fresher and tastier for longer. This advantage not only helps to reduce food waste for consumers, but also brings higher economic benefits to food producers and retailers by reducing product losses.

To a large extent, the bag has become an inseparable part of a variety of food products. VMPET film can not only effectively avoid being exposed to external unfavorable factors, such as microbial corrosion, chemical contamination, oxidation, and other hazards, but also ensure the quality and safety of food in the process of storage and transportation, to extend its shelf life. With the continuous development of science and technology, we believe that VMPET film will play a greater role in the field of food preservation and bring more surprises to our lives.
