Benefit: Product shelf life control & extension
Based on extensive research conducted by Greif R&D, the Greif MAPGuard™ was designed to operate with a range of special liners. During the design and selection process of the liners, very strict tests were performed in order to identify the ideal specifications for MAPGuard™. The extensive research and development efforts eventually allowed MAPGuard™ to control and extend the product shelf life, by preventing external atmospheric conditions affect the quality of the products (it avoids mold, rancidity and, insect (re) infestation), ultimately bringing financial benefit to its users.Product Shelf Life Control and Extension
Based on the extensive research conducted by FPS’s R&D, MAPGuard was designed to work with a variety of special liners in different industries. During the design phase and selection process of the liners, very strict testing was performed to determine MAPGuard’s specifications. It enables the protection and extension of the commercial value of food products with MAP food packaging technology.

Best-In-Class MAP Speed Process
The MAPGuard™ has been designed to operate with a rapid gas and vacuum system, ultimately enabling customers to perform swift gas and or vacuum processes, modifying the internal MAPGuard™ atmosphere in a short time, and therefore reducing their operating costs.
* Time advantage between the MAPGuard™ and other gas and vacuum systems, may vary depending on the product, and the gas & vacuum protocol used among other variables
** If required by the customer, the MAPGuard™ FIBC can operate with third party gas and vacuum systems.
