While E282 has long been a common solution for mold control, today’s consumers are looking beyond traditional chemical preservatives. Clean labels, natural ingredients, and transparency now matter more than ever—and artificial-sounding additives can raise questions, even if they’re widely approved.

There’s a smarter way forward. Modern preservation approaches focus on natural fermentation, ingredient synergy, and “zero-added preservative” solutions that help extend shelf life while maintaining taste, texture, and brand trust. It’s not just about keeping bread fresh longer—it’s about keeping your label clean and your customers confident.
