CA Chamber - MA Chamber

Control Atmosphere Chamber (CAC) and Modified Atmosphere Chamber (MAC) are two types of specialized equipment used to help keep food fresh for longer.

CAC is a sealed room where the air and humidity levels can be adjusted to see how different environments affect food.

For example, how much oxygen fruits and vegetables need to stay fresh.


MAC, on the other hand, changes the air inside food packaging to keep food fresh for longer. It does this by filling the packaging with a mixture of gases, like carbon dioxide and nitrogen, which slows down the growth of bacteria and prevents food from going bad too quickly.

 Both CAC and MAC help keep food fresh, but they work in different ways and are used for different purposes.
