A family-owned food company in Portland, Oregon, contacted us in 2023 for a nitrogen generator for food packaging. The company used modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) for bags of nuts and was preparing to increase production from a few hours per day to a full eight-hour shift.

With increased production, the company expected to use approximately two nitrogen cylinders per day. We recommended an MNG Series small membrane nitrogen generator, providing a simple, easy-to-install solution for on-site food-grade nitrogen production.
The system was up and running within minutes, with a projected payback of less than six months and annual savings of more than $12,000—not including the additional costs of ordering and handling nitrogen cylinders.
