Fabian develops with modified atmosphere packaging for its line of snacks

To broaden the profile of establishments that sell the products of their line of snacks, the Fabian has developed a modified atmosphere packaging. With her, such as drugstores, bakeries, small markets and vending machine companies, which don''t have the availability of a freezer, can offer the product with the same quality and taste, and can prepare them in refrigerators.
Modified atmosphere packing is a technology that extends the shelf life of the products and, in Brazil, is widely used by the food industry, but Fabian is the only to use the wrapper in a line of snacks. Monthly are already distributed in packages of salted 130 1000 modified atmosphere for the mining industry.
The company invested 300 1000 R$ on purchase of three German equipment and search the raw material out of State to meet your demand. The special packaging called packing with barrier, is injected a balanced mixture inert gases that prevent the entry of oxygen and thus the proliferation of bacteria, increasing the shelf life of the product in 24 hours under refrigeration for 14 days, without any loss of flavor and quality and without any use of preservatives.
To adapt the package to the products of Fabian, the company also invested in research. "It was necessary to understand the ideal balance of the mixture of gases, taking into account the specific nature of our products, since the level of humidity of a salty may be different from the other," explains Anthony Fabian Neto, President of Fabian Food Service.
With the introduction of modified atmosphere packaging, Fabian was able to expand the profile of the retail outlets that sell your product. "We started to meet establishments where previously we were present by the lack of equipment that keep freezing temperatures. The opportunity that we offer to place the stored in cooled expanded our niche market drastically. We started to meet pharmacies, bakeries, mini markets, operators of vending machines and kiosks that previously had no business relationship with us, "explains Antonio Neto.
Another important feature is that once they are cooled, take only 40 seconds to be warm, "which is a very important factor in customers with peaks, such as coffee shops that operate in companies with large numbers of employees and pre-established schedules for the range, such as telemarketers, for example. With this time of heating, it is possible to streamline a lot of the operation and the attendance at the point of sale ", explains the Executive.
Modified atmosphere packing is a method of preserving food that provides an increase in the useful life of the product and improves visibility in points of sale, ensuring important aspects such as taste, texture and food safety.
An eye on the future, Antônio Neto explains that intends to expand this technology to the lines of meals and desserts which are also manufactured by the company.
