Vacuum Packaging Solution for Pasta and Noodles

Product Characteristics of Pasta and Noodles

Fresh noodles, wet pasta, egg noodles and stuffed pasta feature high moisture content and active starch. In refrigerated environments, they are prone to acidification, bacterial reproduction, discoloration, starch aging and adhesion. Traditional ordinary sealing cannot extend shelf life effectively, while vacuum packaging will squeeze the products, causing deformation, sticking and damaged texture, which completely fails to meet retail display standards.

Dry pasta and dried noodles are easy to absorb moisture from the air, resulting in mildew, softening and breakage during long-distance logistics, which greatly affects product quality and sales.

Suitable Packaging Form for Pasta & Noodles

Considering the structural and fresh-keeping characteristics of pasta and noodles, modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) is the most suitable and professional packaging method for high-end retail noodle and pasta products.

MAP packaging replaces the air inside the packaging tray with scientific mixed gas, creating a stable sterile environment. It keeps fresh noodles and pasta fluffy, complete in shape and chewy in taste, avoids souring and sticking, and greatly extends the refrigerated shelf life without excessive food preservatives.

Special Gas Proportion for Pasta & Noodle MAP Packaging

• Fresh wet noodles & conventional fresh pasta: 40% CO₂ + 60% N₂
• Pre-cooked noodles & stuffed pasta: 50% CO₂ + 50% N₂

Carbon dioxide effectively inhibits mold and spoilage bacteria to prevent deterioration and souring. Nitrogen supports the packaging box to avoid collapse, maintaining a perfect retail appearance for a long time.
