Protective Modified Atmosphere (MAP): the technology that keeps Fontina DOP Valle d'Aosta always fresh

What is Protective Modified Atmosphere (MAP)?
Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) is an innovative food packaging method that replaces the air in the package with a mixture of natural gases, such as nitrogen and carbon dioxide.
These completely safe gases create a protective environment that slows down the natural degradation of the product, the growth of bacteria and mold, and the loss of freshness and nutritional value.

Thanks to this technology, Fontina can maintain their color, texture, and authentic flavor much longer, without the need for preservatives.

The 250g slices of Fontina DOP are packaged in a modified atmosphere to ensure quality and food safety until consumed.
Here are the main benefits:
Prolonged freshness: Fontina remains as tasty as freshly sliced.
Intact nutritional values: proteins, calcium, and vitamins remain intact.
Authentic flavor preserved: no alteration to the original taste.
Reduced waste: a longer shelf life allows for better consumption planning.
Practical and safe packaging: also ideal for shipping throughout Italy.
