It’s no surprise that consumers want fresher foods with fewer additives and more natural nutritional value. In fact, according to a new infographic produced by Mitsubishi Gas Chemical America (mgc-a.com) 48% of customers avoid foods with artificial preservatives and 35% avoid foods with artificial flavors. This means brands are challenged to leverage packaging technologies that can help food last longer without additional chemicals.
