THE ROLE OF PACKAGING IN FOOD PROCESSING

The role of packaging in food processing is just one among many ways of food preservation.  As soon as food is packaged, it is set for shipment and marketing.  For many food technologists to embark on food packaging, the food technologist must have food knowledge of the technology, materials, labour equipments, capital, research, engineering and management involved in any such food processing establishment.  Packaging plays the important role of a catalyst between the consumer and the product.  Products reach and popularity is determined by its entire look and feel.   With meterial business booming, the packaging industry too has been catapulted to greater heights with constant changes.  Even our traditional food industry expects packaging to perform magic and propel its cuisines on the worlds best selling items list.
