17-Apr-17 Modified Atmospheric Packaging Market is expected to grow with the CAGR of approximately 5% from 2016 to 2022, as per Market Research Future. The modified atmosphere concept for packaged goods consists of modifying the atmosphere surrounding a food product by creating vacuum, gas flushing or controlled permeability of the pack thus controlling the biochemical, enzymatic and microbial actions so as to avoid or decrease the main degradations that might occur. Advantages such as easy separation of sliced products, increased distribution area and reduced transport costs due to less frequent deliveries, reduction in production and storage costs due to better utilization of labour, space and equipment are some factors increasing the demand of the market.
On the basis of materials, global modified atmospheric packaging market is segmented into Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), Ethylene Vinyl Alcohol, Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), Polyproylene (PP) and Polyethylene (PE). Out of them, ethylene vinyl alcohol had the largest share of materials segment in global modified atmospheric packaging market. Ethylene-Vinyl Alcohol (EVOH) material provides outstanding gas barrier properties while retaining good process ability. EVOH keeps oxygen out and retains nitrogen and carbon dioxide used in modified atmosphere packaging (MAP). EVOH also has a very high resistance to oils, and retains taste and aroma. These are the factors that lead EVOH in modified atmosphere packaging market. EVOH is expected to grow at a significant pace during the forecast period.
The key players of global modified atmospheric packaging market include Linde AG (Germany), CVP Systems, Inc. (U.S.), Total Packaging Solutions, LLC (U.S.), Berry Plastics Corporation (U.S.), Hayssen Flexible Systems (U.S.), Dansensor A/S (Demark), Praxair Inc. (U.S), Ilapak Packaging Machinery (Switzerland), Sealed Air Corporation (U.S.), and Bemis Company Inc. (U.S)
