Preserved Food

Extending the viability of foods’ resources has a long history, helping communities to survive periods of shortage. Today, the techniques of food preservation have evolved but are no less important in conserving the nutritional value of the food as well as the investment in labour and energy.

Aluminium foil plays a valuable role in modern preservation and delivery systems thanks to its unique combination of properties.

Heat sterilisation using autoclaves has enabled food products to last, inextreme cases, for years without refrigeration. Even with the trend away from traditional rigid packaging towards lightweight pouches, such as alufoil containers and laminated cartons, the same preservation performance, without the weight and transportation demands, is possible.
