Brif Intro
Modified Atmosphere Packaging MAP Meat Trays are specially designed food-grade containers that use gas flushing technology to extend the shelf life of fresh meat, poultry, and seafood. By replacing the air inside the tray with a controlled gas mixture (typically O₂, CO₂, and N₂), MAP trays significantly slow down oxidation and bacterial growth, keeping meat fresher for longer.
These trays are commonly made from high-barrier PP (polypropylene) or PET/PE laminates to prevent gas leakage and maintain optimal preservation conditions.

Features of MAP Meat Trays
High barrier material: Multi-layer co-extruded materials (such as PP/EVOH/PP or PET/EVOH/PE) are used to effectively block oxygen and moisture.
Extend shelf life: By sealing the tray and filling it with mixed gas (such as CO₂, N₂, O₂), bacterial growth is effectively inhibited and the shelf life is extended.
High-strength structural design: It has excellent compression and puncture resistance, suitable for transportation and refrigeration.
Strong adaptability: It is compatible with a variety of heat-sealing films and suitable for automated packaging equipment.
Environmentally friendly and recyclable: Recyclable materials are used to meet food contact safety requirements.Your Attractive Heading

Key Advantages of MAP Meat Trays
1. Extended Shelf Life
- Reduces Oxidation – Low O₂ levels delay meat discoloration (browning).
- Inhibits Bacterial Growth – High CO₂ concentration slows spoilage.
- Maintains Freshness – Meat stays red and appealing2-3x longer than traditional packaging.
2. Enhanced Food Safety
- Prevents Cross-Contamination – Sealed packaging reduces exposure to pathogens.
- No Preservatives Needed – Relies on gas mix, not chemicals, to preserve meat.
3. Improved Product Presentation
- Clear Visibility – High-transparency materials showcase meat quality.
- Reduced Drip Loss – Absorbent pads (optional) soak up excess juices.
4. Cost-Effective for Retailers & Suppliers
- Less Food Waste – Longer shelf life = fewer unsold products.
- Optimized Logistics – Allows longer storage and transport times.
5. Customizable Gas Mixtures
- Ready-to-Eat Meats →100% N₂ (prevents oxidation without affecting taste).
- Red Meat (Beef/Lamb) →High O₂ (70-80%) + CO₂ (20-30%) (keeps meat bright red).
- Poultry & Fish →Low O₂ (<5%) + High CO₂ (30-50%) (prevents bacterial growth).
