Individual seal /shrink packaging technique

Individual seal /shrink packaging technique

    Individual seal packaging, which may be considered as the MAP for an individual fruit, involves sealing of a fruit in a plastic film with or without heat shrinking to conform the shape of a fruit. Individual seal packaging would help to reduce the fruit decay by prevention of secondary infection during long term storage or shipment. Seal packaging has been found to extend the shelf life of several fruits like apple, pear, kiwifruit, citrus and pomegranate.
