On-the-Go sushi with an extended shelf life

As one of the fastest-growing light-meal and snack trends, the main challenge for fresh sushi producers and retailers is increasing product shelf life with the goal of fewer returns and discards of expired products, and significant profit increases.

Using Hefestus’ SLB technology, sushi producers can guarantee twice the shelf life without using any preservatives that detract from the healthy image of the product and prevent a clean label application.

“We anticipate a growing demand for our packaging solution systems in 2010 due to this breakthrough in the sushi-on-the-go category,” says Oded Shtemer, president & CEO.

“This is the most comprehensive packaging solution in the market, enabling sushi suppliers to maximize sales and profit of this extremely sensitive product.”
