FOOD PACKAGING
• Packaging can be defined as a method to
protect and contain foods with the aim of
minimizing the environmental impact of our
consumption.
FUNCTION
• Packaging materials have the four basic functions of
providing protection, communication, convenience and
containment (Paine, 1981; Robertson, 1993 ).
• Traceability and tamper indication are said to be the
secondary functions of increasing importance
Cont.….
1. Protection:
 One of the main objectives of the packaging of
food is to protect it against spoilage or
deterioration due to physical damage, chemical
changes or biological damage.
2. Communication:
 Any special instructions or information.
Cont..
3. Convenience:
 Ease of access, handling, and disposal;
product visibility; resealability.
4.Containment:
Hold the contents and keep them secure
until they are used
Cont…
5.Traceability:
• Ability to track any food through all stages of production,
processing and distribution.
6.Tamper indication:
• Food tampering is the intentional contamination of a food product,
with intent to cause harm to the consumer or to a private company
(Canadian Food Inspection Agency, 2010).
• There are several measures to detect tampering, including banding,
special membranes, breakaway closures, special printing on bottle
liners or composite cans such as graphics or text that irreversibly
changes upon opening and special printing that cannot be easily
duplicated (Marsh and Bugusu, 2007).
Diffusivity
• Diffusion is quantified by a kinetic parameter called the
diffusion coefficient or diffusivity.
• The driving force behind the transport process is the
difference in chemical potential between the two
phases on either side of the membrane.
• The transport process slowly tries to equalize the
concentrations, partial pressures or chemical potentials
of the penetrant in the phases separated by the
membrane.
Permeability
• At thermodynamic equilibrium, the gas
permeability, or permeability coefficient
P is the product of the diffusivity and the
solubility coefficient,
PACKAGING MATERIALS
• The major categories of materials used for food
packaging are glass, metals, paper and paperboard, and
plastics.
• There are many multilayered packaging materials
containing either layers of different plastics or
combinations of plastics with paper/board, metal or glass.
• In many cases, a packaging material with two layers is
chosen.
TYPES OF PACKAGING MATERIALS
1. PAPER:
• Paper and paperboard are sheet materials
produced from an interlaced network of cellulose
fibers derived from wood by using sulfate and
sulfite.
• The fibers are then pulped, bleached, and treated
with chemicals and strengthening agents to produce
the paper product.
GLASS
• The production of glass containers involves
heating a mixture of silica (the glass former),
sodium carbonate (the melting agent), limestone
or calcium carbonate and alumina (stabilizers) to
high temperatures until the materials melt into a
thick liquid mass, which is then transferred to
molds.
Advantage and disadvantage
• ADVANTAGES: Glass possesses very good barrier
properties, so it maintains product freshness for a
long period of time without impairing the taste or
flavor, visibility of product, the ability to withstand
high processing temperatures.
• DISADVANTAGES: Brittle, heavy and non-
degradable.
PLASTIC
• Plastics are synthesized by condensation, addition or crosslinking
polymerization of monomer units.
• In condensation polymerization, the polymer chain grows by
condensation reactions between molecules and is accompanied by
the formation of water or alcohol.
• The thermal and mechanical properties can be partially modified
in order to manufacture retortable packages with plastics that have
a high melting point, or thermosealable packages making use of
plastics with a low melting point and to develop very flexible
structures (sachets and wrappings), semirigid structures (trays and
tubs) and rigid structures (bottles, closures and tanks).
Cont…
1. Thermoplastic polymers soften and melt on heating and
solidify again on cooling. They are easily molded and
extruded into films, fibers and packaging. Examples
include polyethylene, polypropylene and polyvinyl
chloride.
2. Thermosetting polymers, in contrast, become hardened
on cooling, and these plastics retain their shape and
cannot return to their original form. They are hard and
durable. Thermosets include polyurethanes, polyesters,
epoxy resins and phenolic resins.
Types of plastic
• Various types: polyolefins, polyesters, polyvinyl
chloride, polyvinylidene chloride, polystyrene,
polyamide and ethylene vinyl alcohol.
• Polyolefins and polyesters are the most common.
A. Polyolefins
i.Polyethylene(PE):
• Polyethylene is the simplest, most versatile and most
inexpensive plastic.
• Synthesized by addition polymerization of ethylene.
• According to the its density, PE is classified into: very
lowdensity polyethylene (VLDPE), low-density
polyethylene (LDPE), medium-density polyethylene
(MDPE), and highdensity polyethylene (HDPE)
(Kondo, 1990 ).
• However, LDPE and HDPE are the most commonly
used forms in food packaging.
Polyesters
• Polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polycarbonate
(PC) and polyethylene naphthalate(PEN) are
polyesters, which are obtained by condensation
polymerization from ester monomers that result
from reactions between a carboxylic acid and an
alcohol.
METALS
 Metals are the most versatile of all forms of packaging.
 They offer the combination of excellent physical
protection and barrier properties, formability, decorative
potential, recyclability, and consumer acceptance.
 Metal containers are vacuum-sealed and thermally
sterilized under low oxygen pressure.
 The decomposition of nutrients is kept to a minimum in
metal containers, since metals are a perfect barrier to
oxygen, light and moisture.
 The major limitations of metal containers are cost, the
weight of the containers and the fact that they are difficult
to crush.
PACKAGING METHODS
1. ASCEPTIC PACKAGING:
• Process in which a food product, such as ultra
high temperature (UHT) milk and its package is
sterilized separately and then combined and
sealed under sterilized atmosphere.
VACCUM PACKAGING
• It is a procedure in which air is drawn out of the
package prior to sealing but no other gases are
introduced.
• This technique has been used for many years for
products such as cured meats and cheese.
Modified atmosphere packaging
map
• Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) is a procedure which
involves replacing air inside a package with a predetermined
mixture of gases prior to sealing it.
• The gases involved in modified atmosphere packaging, as applied
commercially today, are carbon dioxide, nitrogen and oxygen.
i. Carbon dioxide reacts with water in the product to form carbonic
acid which lowers the pH of the food. It also inhibits the growth
of certain microorganisms,mainly moulds and some aerobic
bacteria.
ii. Nitrogen has no direct effect on microorganisms or foods, other
than to replace oxygen, which can inhibit the oxidation of fats.
iii. Oxygen is included in MAP packages of red meat to maintain the
red colour, which is due to the oxygenation of the myoglobin
pigments.
