M&H launches barrier food packaging in PET

M&H Plastics announces an oxygen-scavenging product in PET containers that limits the exposure to oxygen and maintains product quality whilst extending shelf life.

The product is manufactured from a blend of PET and an oxygen-scavenging concentrate which together create an active barrier against the ingress of oxygen through the walls of the containers.

The ability to tightly control oxygen ingress enables PET containers to keep products fresher, more vibrant in colour and tasting better for longer.

This helps assure product quality, consistency and extended shelf-life for a wide range of oxygen-sensitive products including tomato-based products, fruit juices and citrus products.

The product is compliant with both European and US Food Standards.
