FreshInk represents a unique Smart packaging solution targeting the global market of fresh food packaging, starting withfresh chicken breast market. The innovation uses a patented, solvent-based flexographic ink, which makes a reactiveindicating compound, that follows the progress of the product´s freshness.The main advantages of FreshInk are i) the proven safety of its main structural element, which allows the packaging toexamine the freshness of the product and not of its environment -as is the status quo in smart packaging- as well as ii) thefact that the reactive indicating compound determines a progressive colour change, making it feasible to follow the gradualalteration of the product´s freshness.FreshInk combines extensive know-how with cutting edge technology in the domain of freshness indicators.
