Gasses in coffee packaging
Coffee is a global commodity traded, roasted and drunk worldwide. From the smallest artisan coffee shop to the largest retail outlet, the quality and consistency of coffee are vital for the product. Coffee beans are harvested green and not susceptible to oxidation until they are roasted; thus, the packaging of the coffee is a vital part of the supply chain.
How are gases used in the sector?
Coffee packaging has evolved over time, trapping in the freshness and aroma so vital for the coffee experience. A one-way valve is inserted into the packaging that allows Carbon Dioxide to escape (a gas that freshly roasted coffee continues to produce) but prevents Oxygen from entering the package, which would degrade the coffee and reduce the flavour and consistency
Allowing the escape of carbon dioxide from the package means that the coffee packaging remains a consistent shape and also prevents a build-up of gases that can lead to bursting or splitting of packaging and wasted coffee.
