Food Packaging and Preservation

Food packaging is defined as a product made from any material used for the containment, safety, handling, distribution and presentation of goods from raw to processed materials, such as paper, glass, plastic, aluminum and wood. At the very heart of the modern food industry, food packaging lies and very few items are sold unpackaged. The main requirement of food packaging is to maintain the safety, wholesomeness and quality of food.

Preservation of food is one of the methods used to protect food from unwanted microbial growth. After the food is produced, we store and protect the rice and curry with lids to keep away flies and other insects by covering them through this, we protect it from any infection that they cause. This is a situation that is short-term. On the other hand, food storage is performed in order to preserve food for a longer time.
