There is little difference between controlled and modified atmospheres. They both refer to atmospheres where the proportions of the normal gaseous/vapor components oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and water vapor, are modified to achieve some storage/packaging goal. This is commonly lowering the oxygen and/or increasing the carbon dioxide. All such atmospheres are modified atmospheres, they become controlled atmospheres when an attempt is made to regulate the composition of one or more of component gases.
