Smart Packaging in the
Foliar Supply Chain
How a low oxygen solution eliminates pests and preserves tobacco quality without chemicals
Cut Rag Tobacco (CRT) is vulnerable to insect infestation and quality degradation during storage and transport. This case study explores how Oxy-Low’s SMART Packaging technology offers an effective, chemical-free solution for pest control and product preservation within the foliar supply chain.
Through a series of real-world tests — including insect mortality, quality assessments, and chemical analysis — this study demonstrates the impact of low oxygen packaging on shelf life, sensory quality, and chemical stability.
