Redesigning the absorbent pad: from wood-derived fibres to functional performance in fresh meat packaging

Absorbent pads are widely used in fresh meat packaging due to their role in minimising food waste. Their primary function is to manage the liquid released by the meat during storage, helping to maintain product quality and shelf life. Future developments in absorbent pads must therefore ensure that this functionality is preserved, as performance remains […]
