Food Packaging

Packaging plays an important role in protecting food products, providing information to consumers, and preventing contamination until products reach homes. Effective packaging options include freezer bags, wrap, vacuum sealers, and plastic containers, as they help extend shelf life and maintain hygiene. While packaging provides benefits, it also generates plastic waste and costs. Common food packaging machines are vertical and horizontal form fill seal, flow wrappers, and rotary vacuum sealing machines, each suited to different product types.
