Increase in health awareness
Less preservatives
Less additives
More natural ingredients
Less processing
Less preservation techniques
New challenges for packaging
Packaging has to compensate the preservation function
New preservation functions

Active Packaging
7
Active Packaging: „..designed to deliberately incorporate components that would
release or absorb substances into or from the packaged food or the environment
surrounding the food“
* Yildirim S. Active Packaging for Food Biopreservation, in Protective Cultures, Antimicrobial Metabolites and Bacteriophages for Food and Beverage Biopreservation, Lacroix C (ed). Woodhead Publishing: Cambridge, 2011; 460-489.
Potential of Active Packaging
8
Active packaging has potential to be used
to extend the shelf life of the product (fresh produce and foods with low shelf life)
to reduce or remove preservatives from food formulations (fresh, clean label)
to decrease the food lost (food with short shelf lives)
to enable to use particular types of packages (biopackaging, flexibles, transparent
window)
to simplify processing (additional hurdles)
to prepare and to present the food (microwave
susceptors)
to develop new products (some products could be
only possible to develop if active packaging
technologies are applied to preserve the quality)

On average, packaging accounts for
about 5% of the energy used in the life
cycle of a food product making it a
significant source of greenhouse gas
emissions.

Production is expected to double again
in 20 years, and quadruple by 2050

Recycling
26
- The packaging industry increasingly invests in maximising the use of recycledfeedstock
- Save resources as it reduces the need for virgin feedstock
- In many cases reduce the required level of energy for processing thefeedstock
- Paper, glass, and metals in particular are being recycled to a large extent, withEurope leading this trend
- Plastic is complex and in some cases it is not possible to recycle because itconsists of a mix of layers
Recycling

Nestle:”100% of our packaging is recyclable or reusable by 2025. We’ve made a number of global commitments to get there, including the elimination of non-recyclable plastics”
Mars: “Plan to use 100 percent recycleable packaging by 2025.”
Unilever: “100% of our plastic packaging will be reusable, recyclable or compostable by 2025”
L’Oréal: “by 2025, 50% of the plastics used in our packaging will either be of recycled origin or bio-sourced”
P&G: “100% of our packaging will be recyclable or reusable”
JNJ:”100% reusable, recyclable or compostable packaging by 2025”

• Around 25.8 million tonnes of plastic waste are generated in Europe every year. Less than
30% of such waste is collected for recycling.
• Demand for recycled plastic today accounts for only 6% of the plastics demand in Europe. To
boost the uptake of recycled plastic, the European Commission is taking action to ensure that
by 2030 all plastic packaging placed on the EU market is either reusable or can be recycled in
a cost-effective manner
• EU Specific Targets
60% of plastic before 2025
65% of wood before 2025 and 80% before 2030
80% of iron based metals before 2025 and 90% before 2030
80% of aluminium before 2025 and 90% before 2030
80% for glassware before 2025 and 90% before 2030
90% of carton and paper before 2025
