Nitrogen flushing is a packaging feature that helps extend the shelf life of snacks by replacing oxygen inside the bag with nitrogen gas. This process:
- Prevents Oxidation: Reduces the chances of fats and oils in snacks going rancid.
- Maintains Freshness: Helps retain the crispness and texture of snacks like chips and popcorn.
- Minimizes Moisture Absorption: Reduces the risk of staleness by keeping humidity out.
- Protects Against Crushing: Creates a cushion inside the bag to prevent delicate snacks from breaking.
At Unified Flex, we offer nitrogen flushing as an optional feature in our snack packaging solutions. Contact us today to learn more about how we can help keep your snacks fresh!
