Modified Atmosphere Packaging
Gases, equipment and advice for the right Modified Atmosphere
Packaging (MAP) In Malaysia, FRESHLINE is Air Products'
complete offering to suppliers, of MAP packed food products. It
provides the best way to ensure that food products are safely
packaged in order to reach the consumer in optimum condition.

usually a carefully controlled mixture of these gases. In Malaysia,
our FRESHLINE specialists - experienced in all aspects of
MAP - will advise you on the correct mixtures and the most appropriate
equipment for your particular product. |
