Advantages of the product

GMP-Certified Cleanroom Production

Our 3,000m² 100K-class clean workshop adheres to GMP standards, ensuring a contaminant-free environment for food contact packaging. This meticulous control guarantees hygiene, safety, and compliance with global food safety regulations, making our modified atmosphere packaging ideal for sensitive products.

Advanced Manufacturing & Customization

We utilize automatic PET/PP sheet making lines, blister forming machines, and precision injection molding to produce bespoke MAP trays and lidding films. This enables flexible designs—from barrier properties to custom shapes—meeting diverse product needs with exceptional precision, consistency, and scalability.

High-Barrier Technology for Extended Shelf Life

Our packaging solutions integrate high-barrier films and oxygen scavengers that effectively maintain the desired gas mixture (e.g., N2, CO2, O2) inside the package. This extends shelf life by up to 50%, preserves color, texture, and nutritional value, and reduces food waste, offering significant cost savings for producers and retailers.

Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) is a revolutionary technology that alters the composition of gases inside a package to slow down spoilage and extend the shelf life of perishable foods. At Zhejiang Hengjiang Plastic Co., Ltd., we specialize in manufacturing high-performance packaging materials that make MAP effective and reliable. Our MAP solutions are designed for a wide range of products, including fresh meat, poultry, seafood, fruits, vegetables, and bakery items. By using a precise mixture of gases—typically nitrogen (N2), carbon dioxide (CO2), and oxygen (O2)—we inhibit the growth of aerobic bacteria and fungi, while preserving the natural appearance and nutritional quality of the food. The key to successful MAP lies in the barrier properties of the packaging material. Our trays are made from PET or PP, which are renowned for their excellent oxygen and moisture barriers. Combined with high-barrier lidding films, these materials maintain the desired gas composition throughout the product’s shelf life. Additionally, we offer active packaging options, such as oxygen scavengers and moisture absorbers, to further enhance preservation. Our state-of-the-art production facility ensures consistent quality and precision, meeting the stringent demands of international food safety regulations. As a vertically integrated manufacturer, we control every step—from material formulation to finished product—ensuring cost-effective, customized solutions for our global clients. Whether you need standard trays for retail or specialized packaging for industrial use, our team provides expert guidance and technical support to optimize your packaging process. By choosing our MAP solutions, you not only extend product shelf life but also reduce food waste, enhance brand image, and increase consumer satisfaction. Trust Hengjiang to be your reliable partner in food packaging innovation.

Frequently Questions

What is food modified atmosphere packaging (MAP)?

Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) involves altering the gaseous environment inside a package to extend the shelf life of food products. By replacing the air with a specific gas mixture (such as nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and oxygen), we slow down microbial growth and enzymatic reactions, preserving freshness, flavor, and nutrients.
MAP typically extends shelf life by 30% to 50% compared to conventional packaging. For example, fresh meat can last up to 10 days instead of 5, and bakery products remain mold-free for several weeks. The exact extension depends on product type, initial quality, and storage conditions.
Yes, our MAP packaging is versatile and can be customized for various products: raw and cooked meats, poultry, seafood, hard and soft cheeses, fresh produce (fruits and vegetables), pasta, ready meals, and bakery items. We offer different tray depths, barrier levels, and gas compositions to suit each product’s unique requirements.
Absolutely. Our technical team works closely with clients to determine the optimal gas mixture for their specific product and desired shelf life. We consider factors like respiration rate for produce, fat content for meats, and moisture sensitivity to provide tailored recommendations.
We serve the global food processing and packaging industry, including meat and poultry processors, seafood distributors, fresh produce packers, and ready-meal manufacturers. We export to over 30 countries across Europe, North America, Asia, the Middle East, and beyond, ensuring compliance with international standards such as FDA and EU regulations.
