The current decade might be remembered as the
decade of food and beverage packaging innovation.
We are witnessing a fundamental rethinking of how
food producers, processors, and packaging
businesses package their products due to varying
demand in numerous areas, including sustainability,
customer convenience, and an increased need for
transparency.
INTRODUCTI
ON
SUSTAINABIL
ITYThere is a climb in demand for ecological
packaging solutions, especially in the food and
beverage sector.
This has primarily taken the shape of efforts to
reduce the incidence of single-use plastics
drastically.
The nobility in this cause has achieved
tremendous support from the public over the
years.
Contd...
This unexpected outpouring of public support is what has fueled the boom of sustainable
packaging options.
Globally, 67 per cent of customers believe it is critical that the items they buy come in recyclable
packaging, with 54 per cent stating it is an active factor when shopping.
These opinions are not diminishing because a splendid 83 per cent of younger customers are
willing to pay for ecological packaging.
PACKAGING
MADE OF PAPER
Paper and cardboard food packaging concepts
are gaining traction as suitable alternatives to
plastic packaging for a wide range of food
goods.
Paper packaging may be manufactured more
readily from recycled resources and recycled or
composted.
Additionally, alternatives to plastic can also
have the same physical rigidity and chemical
stability as plastic packaging.
REDUCING THE
AMOUNT OF PACKING
Removing superfluous components, perhaps the
most effortless approach to enhance sustainability
in food packaging, may nevertheless have a
significant impact.
It's not unusual to find goods wrapped in
excessive amounts of plastic, such as individually
packaged bananas.
This is the result of inefficient package design,
which wastes resources and is costly too.
Contd...
Identifying and eliminating packaging components that aren't required for freshness or
safety is a brilliant place to start.
The food and beverage industry needs to minimize packing.
REUSABLE
PACKAGINGOne technique to make plastic-based packaging more
sustainable is encouraging customers to reuse it and
providing them with the means.
While it is still an outlying notion, several direct-to-
consumer food organizations have achieved small-
scale success by gathering packing materials for
everyday goods, disinfecting them, and reusing them for
future delivery.
After around three uses, such packaging is believed to
be "environmentally neutral."
PACKAGING MADE
FROM RECYCLED
PLASTICPackaging food products with recycled plastic
saves the environment and
importance of sustainable
depicts the
packaging to
customers who buy the product.
While forming food-safe packaging from
recycled plastic is challenging, more creative
solutions are developing to curtail the quantity
of brand new plastics needed in food
packaging.
PROVIDING ASSISTANCE TO
CUSTOMERS
Food and beverage items must compete for the
attention of customers in oversaturated marketplaces.
Food Packaging is critical for gaining new consumers
since it is the consumer's initial contact with a product.
However, this creativity is no longer confined to bright
and eye-catching patterns.
Some of the most cutting-edge food packagings has
elements that are highly valuable to customers.
TECHNOLOGY
INTEGRATIONThe advent of technology and cell phones'
indispensability has shown that technology cannot be left
out of simple food buying.
Food packaging companies use QR codes and NFC
chips which are excellent and unique methods to provide
clients with extra information about purchasing.
These "smart labels" allow customers to obtain
nutritional information and insights into how the product
was manufactured in a matter of seconds, all while
reducing the amount of paper required for labelling.
LABELLING MUST BE
LEGIBLEShoppers have never been pickier about their
foods, which means they now want clear labelling
on everything they buy.
Consumers are becoming more interested in
identifying or knowing what kind of food product
they purchase, whether it's vegan, or whether it is
gluten-free, etc.
Food packaging manufacturers can no longer get
away with concealing this critical information in
the small print.
MINIMALIS
M
The days of crowded product packaging with
words and graphics may be coming to an end.
Consumers increasingly prefer items with a
simple design that communicates the
product's fundamental value.
Besides being visually appealing, minimalist
food packaging items can reduce superfluous
extras such as plastic sleeves and cost less.
CONCLUSI
ONWhile any food firm that counts packaging as
critical operations will need to develop and
improve in the following years, this will not be
easy.
Businesses will need to rethink their production
methods and engage with other supply chain
players.
In many situations, packing costs will rise due
to the requirement to employ more expensive
novel materials.
Contd...
Enterprise Resource Planning can overcome the challenges
in the food packaging process.
ERP is a software framework that integrates all areas of
your food industry and all components of your technology
stack into a single platform.
It's the ideal basis for incorporating innovative packaging
materials and technologies most cost-effectively feasible.
