Modified Atmosphere Packaging utilizes the practice of modifying the composition of the internal atmosphere of a package (in this case food packaging) in order to drastically improve shelf life. Arpac Hefestus is the leader in this technology and we are proud to announce that we are now carrying this line of machines.
SLB™ is Hefestus’ registered patent for MAP with no mechanical vacuum!
This revolutionary development makes it possible for any user, from “one man” operations to major industries, to enjoy the latest in food packaging technology with affordable, compact, high performance, easy to operate & maintain machinery!
SLB™ will achieve a residual oxygen level of .5% or less
It opens new markets to MAP. Products packed with SLB™ benefit from no harm to texture or appearance caused by a vacuum process. Even the most delicate products can be packed in MAP, achieving the best results time after time.
SLB™ improves efficiency and productivity
Since no vacuum is required the SLBTM process works faster and more efficiently than competitive systems and requires less energy too.
SLB™ extends products' shelf life
No need for preservatives or freezing, enabling storage and delivery of the freshest food products at room temp or chilled.
