The project SAFE-BAG Novel continuous in-pack decontamination system for fresh produceaims at developing a novel continuous in-pack decontamination system for fresh produce, that is in line with market trends and consumer demands to move away from the use of methods such as chlorine washing. SAFE-BAG will deliver an alternative which is free from harmful chemicals, resulting in products that are safer for human health and indeed the environment. SAFE-BAG is 3 year R&D project funded by the Seventh Framework Programme of the EC under the “Research for SME Associations” sub-programme. The project is a response to increasing consumer demand for products which are free from harmful chemicals and that are safer for human health and the environment.
