Roles of Food Packaging

• The principal function of food packaging is to protect

food products from outside influences and damage. Traceability and convenience are the secondary function of increasing importance.

• It also minimizes environmental impact and maintains food safety.



Protection/preservation

• Food packaging can slow down product deterioration, maintain or increase the quality and safety of food, retains the beneficial effects of processing, and extends shelf-life.

• In doing so, packaging gives protection from three major classes of external influences i.e. physical, chemical, and biological.



Containment and food waste reduction

• Inadequate transportation, preservation/protection, and storage have been cited as causes of food waste.

• Packaging will reduce the total waste by extending the shelf-life of foods, thereby prolonging their usability.



Marketing and information

• A package is the face of a product and it is the only product exposure which consumers can experience prior to a purchase.

• Consequently, distinctive or innovative packaging boosts sales in a competitive environment.



Traceability

Traceability has 3 objectives:

• To improve supply management

• to facilitate trace-back for food safety and quality purposes

• To differentiate the market foods with subtle or undetectable quality attributes.



Convenience

• As a consequence, packaging plays a very important role in minimizing the effort necessary to prepare and serve foods.

• Microwavable packaging, oven-safe trays, and boil-in bags, allow consumers to cook an entire meal with virtually no preparation.



Tamper indication

• Wilful tampering with food and pharmaceutical products has resulted in special packaging features which are designed to reduce the risk of tampering and adulteration.

• Tamper-evident features cannot easily be replaced.



Other functions

• Packaging can serve other functions, like a carrier for premiums (for example, inclusion of a gift, additional product, or coupon) or containers for household usage.



Conclusion:

• The primary purpose of food packaging is to maintain the quality of food, safety, and wholesomeness.

• The impact of packaging waste on the environment will be minimized by carefully choosing materials, reviewing expectations of packaging in terms of environmental impact & by following EPA guidelines.
