Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) is a method that alters the composition of gases within a package to extend the shelf life of food products. By replacing ambient air with a controlled mixture of gases like nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and sometimes oxygen, MAP helps preserve the freshness, taste, and appearance of packaged foods while minimizing the need for chemical preservatives and reducing food waste. It is a valuable technology for both manufacturers and consumers seeking longer-lasting, naturally preserved food options.
