Various Types of AGELESS™ for Various Purposes

Select the AGELESS™ type that best suits your purposes.
Place AGELESS™ with food in a container or film wrapping which is impermeable to oxygen. Thoroughly seal the container or the film sheet. When inserting AGELESS™ manually, you only need a heat-sealing machine for easy and simple packaging. An automatic AGELESS™ inserting machine, suitable for interlocked operation with existing automatic food packaging machines is available to allow continuous AGELESS™ insertion.

Oxygen absorption starts only in a high-temperature, moist environment.

Caution

What is Water activity(AW)

Water Activity (AW) is the ratio water vapor pressure (p) generated by the product itself, to the maximum vapor pressure (Po) at a given temperature. lt is also shown by the balanced relative humidity (RH%) generated by moisture transpired from the product when it is packed in a closed container.

Regular Acting Type

for foods with low or medium water content

Coffee

Oxygen and carbon dioxide are both absorbed simultaneously.

• Main components are organic, thus this type of AGELESS™ will not affect a metal detector.

Self-Reacting
