Protective Packaging for the Food and Beverage Industry

The Importance of Protective Food Packaging

Food products must meet stringent safety standards before they reach the consumer. This is where protective food packaging comes in. It safeguards goods from pollutants, mold, bacteria, viruses and other contaminants. Packaging can also eliminate the risk of tampering during handling and storage and reduce waste.

Other benefits of food packaging include:

Preservation of quality and freshness: Packaging material can keep out moisture, light, heat and other environmental elements, allowing companies to maintain the freshness and quality of their products.

Consumer convenience: Packaged food products are easy to open, reseal and dispense. Oven-safe and microwavable packaging can also simplify meal prep.

Compliance with safety regulations: Compliant packaging empowers the food and beverage industry to meet the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) safety laws.

Protection from physical damage: Protective packaging shields food products against vibrations, shocks and other physical impacts.
