What is Food Grade Packing

Q: What container should I put the food in ?

A: You should use food grade packaging for storing anything you intend to eat. A food container is one that will not transfer noxious or toxic substances into the food it is holding. If you are uncertain whether a package type is food grade you can contact the manufacturer. Ask if that particular container is (US) FDA approved meaning that it is safe for food use. When inquiring be sure to specify the characteristics of the food you are storing; wet, dry, strongly acidic or alkaline, alcoholic or a high fat content. A container that is approved for one of the above types of food may not be approved for another.

The major functions of a food packing are to:

#1. Protect its contents from outside environmental influences such as moisture, and oxygen, but possibly also heat or cold, light, insects and/or rodents as well.

#2. Prevent damage during handling and shipping.

#3. Establish and/or maintain microbiological stability. The container should not allow microorganisms such as fungi and bacteria from outside the container to come into contact with its contents. This is of critical importance to wet-pack foods such as canned vegetables, fruits and meats.

#4. Withstand the temperatures and pressures it will be exposed to. This is necessary if the contents are to be pasteurized or sterilized, either immediately before or after filling. It must not have any structural failures nor release any noxious or toxic breakdown chemicals into the food it contains. This is the reason why purpose built canning jars are recommended for home canning and mayonnaise jars aren’t. The former are made heavier to withstand high temperatures and handling whereas the latter are not and have an increased risk of breakage if used for that purpose.

Virtually all containers used in home food preservation involving exposure to high temperatures are made of glass or metal, with the exception of some specialized “heat & seal” type of plastic bags. Glass can be used with any food type providing it is clean and in sound condition but the lids, particularly the liner inside the lid, may not be so you’ll have to investigate suitability.

Metal cans are more specialized. They must be intended for food use and must also have a lining or coating of the inside that is suitable for the pH level of the food it will be in contact with.

If the foods are not subjected to some form of heat processing just before or after packaging your selection of container types for home use is a great deal larger. Virtually any kind of clean, sound glass jar can be used and many types of new metal containers. Several sorts of plastics have become popular. These various kinds of plastics are each suited for different purposes, making selection a more complex task.

Blister packing

Blister packing is a term for several types of pre-formed plastic packaging used for small consumer goods, foods, and for pharmaceuticals.

The primary component of a blister pack is a cavity or pocket made from a formable web, usually a thermoformed plastic. This usually has a backing of paperboard or a lidding seal of aluminum foil or plastic. A blister that folds onto itself is often called a clamshell.

Blister packs are useful for protecting products against external factors, such as humidity and contamination for extended periods of time. Opaque blisters also protect light-sensitive products against UV rays.

Uses
Blister packs are used to package products such as toys, hardware, medication, etc.

Many blister packaging machines use heat and pressure via a die to form the cavity or pocket from a roll or sheet of plastic. In recent years, improvements in cold forming, specifically allowing steeper depth/angles during forming, which minimizes the amount of material used for each cavity—have helped this technology increase. The main advantages of the plastic-based blister pack are its more compact size compared to cold formed aluminum and its transparency to see the product.

Food container

Food containers are widespread in use throughout the world and have probably been in use since the first human civilizations.

Early civilizations
In early civilizations cereal grains such as maize, wheat, barley etc. were stored in large airy buildings, often raised up from the ground to reduce infestation by pests and vermin. Ancient Egyptian and early Hebrew writings include reference to such buildings and their successors can still be seen in use in less developed countries and regions.

Smaller quantities of food were stored in baskets made from woven grasses or leaves and such designs have remained in use to the present day.

In more recent times but prior to the invention of the refrigerator many food products were stored in the home as preserves or pickles, often in heat sealed jars such as Kilner jars

Modern containers
In the modern developed world, a very wide range of food packaging and containers is now available made from many materials.

Plastic containers
Many products use low-density polyethylene formed into plastic tray or plastic boxes. There are many makers of plastic boxes some such as Tupperware and Lock & Lock are known throughout much of the developed world.

Metal containers
Longer term storage or storage of items needing a higher degree of protection from the elements may use sheet metal. A common form of such storage is the biscuit tin. See Canning.

Refrigerator
Perhaps the most ubiquitous domestic item of food storage is the fridge or fridge-freezer in which a wide variety of foodstuffs are contained and preserved through the use of low temperatures.

Disposable
Disposable foam food containers may be used for food or beverages.

Industrial food storage containers
Wherever food is harvested, manufactured or distributed there is a need for containers to enable the food to travel securely and in good condition to the shop, warehouse or distribution depot. For many foods, especially those in their own individual containers such as canned vegetables, the common container is the corrugated fiberboard box, Corrugated boxes are available in many sizes.

A variety of Bulk boxes are also used.

Ice-creams Packaging in Trays

Ice-creams are presented in many different ways and for this reason packaging options are constantly changing and adapting in accordance. However, ice-cream sticks and ice-cream cones are the most common types. Ice-cream sticks come individually in Plastic Tray and the machines require special characteristics, which means that it is usually the ice-cream producers who manufacture or adapt the machines for Food Tray them. Subsequently, the ice-cream box are packaged into cartons which are then case-packed for distribution.

In the case of loading into cartons, these are pre-formed in top loading machines, whether they be lock style or glued cartons and which are later closed with carton closing machines. In the case of ice-cream cones, subsequent to the freezing process, these are presented on trays with various units which are later packed into cartons. A conveyor belt takes the cones through the packaging stage where they are identified by the Pick & Place lines by means of cameras connected to an artificial vision system and high speed robots place them on the trays which have been loaded by a tray detester.
Given that the ice-creams packing are not wrapped during this phase of the process, the type of clean construction of these lines is especially important and are available with self-cleaning mechanisms, stainless steel and special treatments. Once the trays have been completed they are wrapped using machinery where an inert gas may be injected to preserve the product before they are boxed. The end loading machines form the cartons, place the trays and glue the cartons. Once the cartons have been formed, the case packing takes place, either horizontal or vertical, where the CP
series machinery is the most competitive option.

Food Packaging Is Indispensable To Modern Times

The packaging of a product permits the general public to identify it rapidly and ascertain what its functionality is. The importance extends clearly beyond functionality. For most food products, the foremost objective of food packaging is to ensure the safety of the product and preserve it in quality condition for the anticipated shelf life until it is ready to be consumed. The following must always be considered with respect to packaging food:

Portion control begins with packaging.
Barrier protection from outside contaminants like water, air, dust, etc.
Design of structural architecture and product protection from shipping shock, movement and load support.
Eye-catching graphic design for effective product “sell through.”
Insure product safety and security with tamper resistant design, proper closures and seals.
A primary objective for food container is the protection against spoilage or deterioration as a result of physical damage during supply and product distribution. In the storage, distribution and handling, food products are subjected to shocks, jolts and vibrations on delivery vehicles, and compression loads attributed to stacking and temperature control in warehouses. A food packages’ physical barrier should be rather conducive in resisting impact, abrasion and crushing damage, so it can effectively be used as shipping containers in addition to packaging for delicate products.

Yet another notable subject experiencing attention in food packaging is the flavor and scent barrier. The packaging functionality must protect the product from damage during handling and environmental deterioration. There are packages which contain material to absorb moisture to help prolong shelf life as well as provide an effective barrier for food dehydration and freezer burn. The scope to which food tray complies with its preservation attribute that can cause spoilage is dependent on materials capable of providing a barrier to the environmental factors.

Packaging must protect what it sells and sell what it protects. Packaging is indispensable to the prevention of physical damage and chemical deterioration from mechanical and climatic hazards, as well as changes caused by microorganisms. Ultimately, the packaging should allow for the presentation, identification, information and convenience for the food product from the moment of production until utilized.

What is Blister Packaging

A plastic blister packing is a two-piece package made up of a front-facing, clear thermoformed plastic blister that is sealed on its back to a pre-printed blister card. Blister packs are an inexpensive way to combine the visibility of a clamshell with the graphics of a folding carton.

Blister packs are pre-formed plastic packaging typically used for small consumer goods and pharmaceuticals.

The primary component of a blister pack is a clear cavity (or pocket) made from a formable web of thermoformed plastic. The pack usually has a sealed backing of paperboard, foil or plastic. A two-sided blister that folds onto itself is often called a clamshell package.

The most common materials used by blister pack manufacturers are PVC, PETG and PET.
