LEADERS IN MODIFIED ATMOSPHERE PACKAGING FOR COMMERCIAL

AND HOME USE

​PEAKfresh is modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) made specifically for fruit and vegetables as well as cut flowers and plants. With a natural mineral embedded in our products, we are able to modify the composition of the air surrounding the packaged item in order to extend the initial fresh state of the product. PEAKfresh has long been used by growers, shippers, and retail chains to preserve the freshness of produce during transit and storage. Most recently, NASA starting using PEAKfresh to extend the life of produce sent to the International Space Station.

​PEAKfresh products are made of a low-density polyethylene film impregnated with a natural occurring mineral found in Australia. This mineral extracts ethylene gas which is ​the agent that causes produce to ripen and ultimately spoil. By reducing ethylene gas, PEAKfresh extends the freshness of the produce up to 2 - 3 times normal shelf life. An anti-fog treatment is also included in PEAKfresh products to further enhance results by creating high humidity levels similar to when the fruit, veggie or flower was on the vine.
