Nitrogen or gas mixtures may be able to significantly extend the shelf life of your fish & seafood.

There are many differing types of fish and seafood. Some examples are: low fat, oily high fat, and shell fish, etc. Because of this, there are many different gas mixtures suitable and depending on the product being packaged, the gas mixture may be O₂/CO₂/N₂ or CO₂/N₂ or others. Shelf life may be extended anywhere from two to three times the normal shelf life.

EXAMPLES	MAP GAS MIX			TYPICAL SHELF LIFE*
	O₂	CO₂	N₂	AIR	MAP
Raw Salmon		40%	60%	2-3 days	4-6 days
Raw Flounder	30%	40%	30%	2-3 days	4-6 days
Cooked Fish		30%	70%	7 days	30 days

*Note: Typical Shelf Life will vary depending on many variables.

There are many packaging machine manufacturers on the market that offer packaging machines with MAP facilities. In some cases, they are also able to offer retrofitting of existing machines with MAP facilities.
