the planet. The increasing global population, developing economies and the improving living standards has caused the global waste to grow immensely. In 2011 the global solid waste has been estimated to be 11 billion tons. (Guerrero, et al., 2013) Packaging is an important component of the total global waste and consists of all the abandoned materials that have been used for containment, handling, protection, presentation, marketing and delivery. (Marsh & Bugusu, 2007) This amount was estimated to reach
The client from C&N Associates requests a food packaging system for a better performance of “Meals on Wheels” program. The packaging system should be capable of preserving food in a well-heated status of above 60 degrees Celsius in order to prevent the rapid proliferation of bacterias [1][2][3]. The preferred duration for insulating is two hours, for it takes an average of less than two hours for the route of delivery [4]. Food would become visually unappealing, worsen its texture, and alter its

Risks and Benefits of Food additive Food Additive The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) defines food additive as: “Any substance, the intended use of which results or may reasonably be expected to result, directly or indirectly, in its becoming a component or otherwise affecting the characteristics of any food” According to the Food Protection Committee of the Food and Nutrition Board, food additives may be defined as follows: “Substance or mixture of substances, other than a basic
SOLUTION: “GO CLEAN – GO GREEN” The supply chain process at Kuehne and Nagel has adopted the "Go Clean - Go Green" initiative which includes joining 14 ocean carriers and 12 shippers as member of the Clean Cargo Working Group (CCWG). The carrier members measure the actual consumption of bunker fuel and subsequently apply a common methodology for calculating and providing their individual trade-lane based carbon dioxide emissions per gram/TEU/km. The process is to incorporate these numbers in the carbon
Is woven polypropylene suitable for packaging use? Polymer melt index Density (gr/ml) LDPE (Low Density) 0.2-20.0 0.916-0.930 HDPE (High Density) 0.2-25.0 0.950-0.960 Polypropylene 0.2-50.0 0.910-0.928 High Melt Index with low Density Properties of woven polypropylene bags • Non-Toxic :- it is not dangers product and it is not harmful to who will use it • Non-Staining :- it is not staining and it is reusable • 100% reusable
Packaging has been considered as the science and art of shielding products for the purpose of distribution. It is also for the designing process, evaluating and producing of the packaged items. Packaging may be divided in three types: primary, secondary and tertiary. Labeling is either written, electronic, or graphical communications on the packaging. The objectives of labeling: brand identification, providing the information and promotion. Labels on the food products are proposed for consumer information
market and Customer needs It used to be just simple food containers with white color. FP Corporation then produces more fashionable food containers and becomes the first manufacturer and seller of food containers with different colors and patterns in the Japanese territory. Do not stop here alone, FP Corporation keeps upgrading its products with advanced facilities and technologies such as reducing the weight of food container products, developing food container functions, using new materials. The development
.2 Packaging is important for products and our life. Most products have some from packaging, even if it’s just a price tag. Meaning of packaging is, the technology of enclosing or protecting products for distribution, storage, sales, and use. Packaging is also refers to the process of designing, evaluating, and producing packages, packaging can described as a coordinated system of preparing goods for transport, warehouse, logistics, sales, and use. And for packaging contains, protects, preserve
4. HOW PLASTICS ARE MADE? The Plastic production process begins by heating the hydrocarbons in a “cracking process”. Here, in the presence of a catalyst, large molecules are broken down into smaller ones such as ethene (C2H2), propene (C3H6), and butene (C4H8) and other hydrocarbons. The yield of ethene is controlled by cracking temperature and is more than 30% in 850°C and such products as styrene and vinyl chloride can be produced in subsequent reactions. These are then the starting materials for
