Food is a product that needs to be packaged with care. This is due to the severe ordinances and standards that are imposed on health problems due to improper packaging. Therefore, food packaging materials must be suitable to provide consumers with superior health protection and convenience, and low environmental impact. 

You can choose from a variety of food and beverage ingredients for your packaging needs:

Nanocomposites: 

Represents a new generation of custom food packaging supplies with specific properties that enhance mechanical and barrier properties. They are commonly used to make bottles or films with very low permeability to oxygen and water vapor. However, it is relatively expensive but recyclable.

Glass: 

This is a type of material that can be formed into various shapes and recycled without much change in mechanical properties. Despite requiring high mold temperatures, glass packaging materials have excellent retaining properties and are impermeable to gases and moisture. They break easily when under heavy work.

Cardboard And Paper: 

These wood materials are mainly made for dry foodstuffs such as salt, sugar, flour, and many more. The paper is lightweight, easy to print, but can be penetrated by air, moisture, and gas. They are a very inexpensive material, but can easily be adapted to different shapes and sizes. Due to its very stable nature, paper as a packaging material has a very low impact on the environment.

Plastics: 

Plastic food packaging is also becoming increasingly popular for use in microwaves. Plastics can be biodegradable and synthetic. Synthetic plastics are characterized by low-cost production, good mechanical preventive characteristics, lightweight, elasticity, recyclability, but non-biodegradation. Biodegradable plastics are specially prepared to break down materials in certain ways.
