■Commitment to SDGs ~ Achieving both Food Loss Reduction and Deliciousness with 'MAP Technology' ~
MAP Packaged Products
Ginza Aster introduced the latest 'MAP packaging (Modified Atmosphere Packaging)' technology at its new factory, 'Ginza Aster Takumi Kobo,' which started operations in March 2024.
'Ginza Aster Delica Keio Shinjuku,' which is opening this time, will adopt this MAP packaging for its products, achieving both deliciousness and sustainability in deli food production.
MAP packaging is a next-generation packaging technology that replaces the air inside the pack with gases suitable for food preservation (nitrogen and carbon dioxide) to maintain freshness, flavor, and texture for an extended period without preservatives. This allows customers to enjoy the taste as if it were freshly made at home while also contributing to the reduction of food loss by extending shelf life. This initiative contributes to the achievement of 'SDG Goal 12: Responsible Consumption and Production.'
Ginza Aster will continue its challenge to connect 'healthy and sustainable food' to the future, guided by the spirit of 'delivering surprise and deep emotional impression more deliciously than anywhere else.'
