New Food Touch(TM) paper liners are specifically designed as a sanitary barrier for holding and storing high-value, raw and cooked food items. Featuring the co.’s Indenta(TM) deep-textured design, which assists the cooling process, combined with its AgION antimicrobial technology, the lining is said to extend the shelf life of perishable food products. According to the co., AgION antimicrobial technology is one of the few available that is safe enough for human and food contact and is proven to be effective against a broad range of microorganisms, including bacteria, algae and fungus such as mold and yeast. AgION technology is incorporated into the Food Touch liners and continuously releases silver ions at the surface of the paper when exposed to moisture. The silver disrupts microbe growth by interrupting RNA (ribonucleic acid) replications needed for microorganism growth, claims the co.
