Forvara® Mushroom Packaging Wrap Film is a specialized film used for mushroom packaging as it solves the problem of color change and deterioration of product. Mushroom Packaging film is preferred by mushroom packers, supermarket owned packers, case ready and deli counters due to its presentation, freshness and extended shelf life along with achieving the highest global food safety standards.
Mushrooms need to breathe actively. The high permeability of this film along with the required micro perforation ensures the free exchange of air, keeping mushrooms healthy, fresh and odor-free.

Allows wrapping around containers of porcelain, glass, ceramic, steel and certain plastics to seal food without the hassle of film entanglement. It has good film-to-film clinginess.
Exceptional anti-fog properties for see-through packaging of perishables to display in freezers.
Bisphenol A (BPA) free and does not contain any plasticizers (such as phthalates), stabilizers, chlorine content or any chemicals that are harmful to human health.
Does not crack even at sub–zero temperatures of up to -30 °C (-22 °F).
Keeps mushrooms for a longer period, thus increasing their shelf life.
No obnoxious smell compared to PVC films.
Also safe for contact with fatty foods.
Polyethylene is easily recycled without releasing any harmful substances in the environment.
Allows the film to be kept taut around the product, without wrinkles.
Mushroom Packaging film has micro holes that allow air permeation to maintain the rate of respiration. Micro-perforation involves making holes in the film ranging from a diameter of 1 mm to 2 mm either by cold or hot needles, or laser processes.
Micro-perforation is essential for packed mushrooms, since the film ensures that products can breathe and the air inside the package can be circulated. It helps in sustaining quality, freshness, and integrity of the contents, enhancing greater shelf life. Most common is the 5-line micro-perforation — however, we can produce different patterns of micro-perforation as required by the customer or the application.
Specialty Polyfilms is committed to developing sustainable products. After years of research and development, we have successfully introduced biodegradable mushroom packaging. With the world moving onto sustainable packaging, our film can be used in packaging of fresh fruit and vegetables, mushrooms, and fresh produce.
The eco-friendly film has technical properties similar to conventional film. With this biodegradable product, we aim to bring about a positive effect on the environment and reduce the use of non-biodegradable single-use plastic.
Mushrooms manufacturers and packers need printing on the film for brand building and consumer confidence. We supply printed film up to 6 colours using CI Flexo or Gravure process.
