PACKAGING COMPRISING A BREATHABLE VALVE FOR PERISHABLE PRODUCTS

摘要

The invention relates to packaging comprising a breathable valve, intended to extend the green life of perishable products. The packaging comprises a flexible container (1) and a breathable valve assembly (2) that can be used to control the concentration of oxygen, carbon dioxide, water vapor and ethylene in the atmosphere inside the container, such as to maintain a desired value depending on the weight and the respiration rate of the product. The breathable valve assembly (2) comprises a ring (3) and a breathable lid (4) assembled in order to close the flexible container (1). The packaging is advantageous over the prior art in that it can be assembled without using any heat-sealing technique and in that it can extend the green life of perishable products, such as fruits and vegetables.
