Printpack and Food Chain Safety form MATSPack™ LLC
January 6, 2012
Printpack, in partnership with Food Chain Safety have formed MATSpack™ LLC to commercialize a patented microwave sterilization system for pre-packaged foods. This revolutionary technology improves food flavor, texture and nutrient retention versus retort via very short thermal process times. The MATS™ food sterilization system was developed through the work of Washington State University and an industry consortium.
Using industrial microwaves in a patented, FDA-accepted process, Microwave Assisted Thermal Sterilization (MATS™) system can achieve consistent in-pack sterilization of foods in an incredibly short time vs. traditional processing methods. This rapid volumetric heating delivers a safe product that not only looks appealing, it tastes better and has significantly more nutrition than retorted products today.
