Mushroom nylon

Mushroom is a sensitive and non-resistant product that has a short life and loses its quality quickly after being picked. But a suitable and high-quality packaging can delay the deterioration and spoilage of mushrooms and preserve its quality for a longer period of time. Many different methods can be used for packing mushrooms, among which the use of mushroom nylon is one of the most common and best methods for packing this product.

Types of nylon packaging for mushrooms

Nylon Shring: Another good method in the field of mushroom packaging is the use of Nylon shring. This nylon is sensitive to temperature and is flexible against heat and has malleability. This nylon shrinks due to heat and completely surrounds the mushroom container without air entering. By shringing the mushroom, in addition to emptying the air inside the container, it is also possible to inject nitrogen gas into it. This method increases the shelf life of mushrooms and preserves the appearance of mushrooms well.

Cucumber Nylon: Special plastic bags are used to pack bulk mushrooms, which are known as Cucumber nylon in the market. These bags are thicker than normal nylons and have large dimensions and are used in two sizes: 5 kg (45 x 55) and 3 kg (37 x 47).

The necessity of packing mushrooms with nylon

One of the most important principles of maintaining the quality of mushrooms is the type and method of its packaging. Packaging should be done in such a way that the quality of the mushroom is optimally maintained from the time of production to the time of delivery to the customer and consumption. An inappropriate and unprincipled packaging causes the nutritional value of the product to be lost and even spoil. But a basic packaging protects the mushrooms from external factors and minimizes the possibility of air exchange; Because this air exchange can spoil the product.

To package mushrooms, whether you use disposable plastic containers or mushroom packaging cartons, in any case, you will need a plastic cover to cover the surface of the container. In fact, mushroom nylon is like a protector that after being placed on the product:

• It prevents the penetration of air and moisture into it
• It prevents the penetration and entry of microbes into it
• Protects the product from sweating
• It gives it a better and longer shelf life
• Prevents blackness and rotting of fungi
