The active packaging industry helps many companies prolong the lifespan of their products. Take a product like deli meat, for example. The meat naturally has a short lifespan. In time, the appearance of the meat starts to fade and it must be removed from the shelves within 10 days or so. By adding active packaging […]

Sorbents give food and pharmaceutical brands a way to extend the shelf life of their product. A sachet tucked inside a bag of beef jerky or a canister inside a bottle of pharmaceuticals, for example, traps oxygen and moisture that can degrade products. Sorbents are effective. However, not all sorbents are created equal. There are […]

An innovative solution to extend the shelf life of food is now available. Oxygen-absorbing film protects the quality, look, flavor, aroma, and texture of food – and it blends seamlessly into the product’s packaging. Multisorb has developed an oxygen absorbing resin that is integrated directly into film called FreshPlus. FreshPlus can be let down in […]

Including an oxygen-absorbing sorbent in your food packaging helps maintain quality and extend shelf life. Sorbents are found in a variety of foods like pet food, dietary supplements, processed meats, baked goods, pre-cooked meals, whole muscle meat, and ground beef. However, inserting a sorbent into a package can be a challenge. Active packaging companies can […]

If your desiccant does not have enough absorption capacity, your pharmaceutical product will not be adequately protected from moisture. If you include too much desiccant in your package; drug products become brittle and can crack. To ensure pharmaceutical products are in their optimal environment, Multisorb uses simulation technology to calculate the amount of desiccant required […]

There’s a lot of science behind food packaging. Manufacturers have to control the environment inside the package in order to preserve a food’s color, texture, taste, and smell. To do so, an oxygen scavenger is typically added to the package. These scavengers are usually free-floating components, but a new kind of oxygen absorber is generating […]

The race is on. Engineers are working to develop autonomous vehicles that are safe, efficient, and affordable. To do so, engineers are perfecting LiDAR systems; one of the main components in autonomous vehicles that are responsible for “seeing” the road. LiDAR sensors emit pulses of light that bounce off objects, creating a 3D map of […]

Driverless cars aren’t mainstream, yet. But, new technology and evolving trends could make robotic driving as common as backup cameras are in new cars. The main changes stem from the LiDAR sensors that give driverless cars the ability to “see.” The sensors, which rapidly bounce laser beams off its surroundings to get a clear picture […]
