Anti-Fog for Packaging

Modern packaging technologies play an important role in preventing food waste. Anti-fog additives minimize the effect of film fogging, extending shelf life and improving the appearance of packaged products.

Since 1970s

Background

Developed in the early 1970s, anti-fog additives prevent condensation on polymer packaging material. They extend the shelf life of packaged products, prevent premature deterioration and improve the appearance of the packaging at the point of sale.
