Acelera offers turn-key solutions for food processing.  Working with our partners, MTI provides complete electron beam irradiation facilities to treat food items. 

Some of the benefits of food irradiation include:

• Eliminates pathogens and microorganisms without introducing foreign substances and does not affect flavor or freshness.
  
• Avoids or significantly reduces the use of fumigants and chemical preservatives thus reducing expense and minimizing consumption of toxic substances.
  
• Prolongs shelf life of the product.
  
• Prevents sprouting and delays ripening.
  
• By greatly improving the phytosanitary quality of the products, it allows foods to be marketed to very demanding markets.
