How advanced interleaving material technology can increase shelf life, improve food safety
Processors that take advantage of advancements in interleaving material technology and integrate these with their systems will significantly increase shelf life, food safety and profitability.
In food processing, wax paper, parchment paper and plastic film interleaving materials are traditionally placed under bacon, sliced deli meats, cheese or dough products for portion/inventory control and sanitary handling before final packaging. With such placement, processors can also improve ease of preparation, separation, freeze release, shelf life and package presentation.
While interleaving materials are typically viewed as a commodity, material innovation and integration with high-speed interleaving machines can significantly enhance shelf life and food safety across a wide range of industries.
