Risico’s voedselveiligheid verpakkingsmaterialen met zilver

The formulation of innovative packaging solutions, exerting a functional antimicrobial role, is expected to have a significant impact on the food industry, allowing both the maintenance of food safety criteria for longer periods and the reduction of food waste.
