smartfood R&D opens pilot plant MAP and vacuum packaging
31 January 2020
We marked this new year with a major renovation and, now the dust has settled, we are proud to present our packaging pilot plant. The pilot plant features all of the resources required to vacuum-pack any product in a protective atmosphere, and we can use any desired gas compound to perfectly copy the MAP conditions in our clients’ final products on a laboratory scale.
The pilot plant is linked to our Listeria lab, where we can carry out any research necessary, such as challenge tests Listeria monocytogenes to demonstrate the effectiveness of protective cultures or bacteriophages in relation to the growth of L. monocytogenes.
