Nitrogen Gas Generators For Food Packaging, MAP Packaging, Gas Flushing 

Nitrogen Gas Generators are used for food packaging, MAP, and gas flushing to extend the shelf life of the food product. Nitrogen gas helps preserve the taste, color, flavor, and freshness of the foods packaged and gas flushed with nitrogen. The nitrogen generator produces this gas for a fraction of the cost of delivered nitrogen.  

When foods are packaged, their freshness depends heavily on removing oxygen that oxidizes and negatively transforms the flavor of the food products. Gas flushing with a nitrogen generator can often double the shelf life of your product.

How can a nitrogen generator work for MAP (Modified Atmosphere Packaging)

For MAP (modified atmosphere packaging) products like shredded cheese that require a combination of nitrogen and CO2, we offer state-of-the-art blenders and mixers. Our nitrogen generators will produce the gas and supply it to the blender. The blender will mix the nitrogen with CO2 to the user’s specific percentage. For example, 80% nitrogen 20% CO2. The packaging machine then uses the mixed gas, where it goes inside the package with the product.

What purity of nitrogen do you need for food packaging and gas flushing?

Most food packaging for items like coffee, cheese, snack foods, or dairy requires 99.5 to 99.9% oxygen purity. Our company designs systems to meet any flow and purity requirements.

What are the savings with a nitrogen generator?  

On-site nitrogen costs a tenth of the price of delivered nitrogen. A nitrogen generator from Gas Generation Solutions typically pays back its investment in one year. On-site nitrogen generation for food packaging easily saves your business tens of thousands of dollars each year. Savings that allow you to grow your business increase your revenue and create a superior-tasting product that retains your customers for life.
