Upgrade food packaging to extend the shelf life of food
People have higher and higher requirements for living standards, more and more consumables of life, and the waste of food has become a serious issue of concern to all parties in society. The UN Sustainable Development Summit had previously passed a resolution that planned to reduce the total amount of food waste by half by 2030. Food manufacturers actively take measures to cope with it, among which the technological innovation of food packaging containers is the most noticeable. Once the "shelf life" is exceeded, no matter what kind of food, people often throw it away directly, which is also one of the important reasons for food waste.
As of March 2018, various food manufacturers have achieved the following results: Kewpie has developed high-security food packaging that can absorb trace oxygen from the outside; increase the deoxygenation in the production process, which was originally only 7 The "Cuby Mayonnaise" with a shelf life of one month has now been extended to 12 months.
Sato Food Industry also improved the anti-oxidation packaging process, extending the shelf life of the cut cake from 15 months to 24 months. Another cake-cutting company, "Echigo Fruit", is also striving for excellence in packaging technology, increasing the shelf life of its products from 12 months to 24 months.
In addition, such as product subdivision, individual packaging, full use of tubular food, etc .. In order to reduce waste, food manufacturers have worked hard on container packaging. A person in charge of a company said: "In the face of such a macro problem as food waste, although our method may be trivial, we hope to stick to it step by step."
The development of the packaging industry has a long way to go. Our Shanghai Sanjing Machinery Co., Ltd. will continue to work hard for the food packaging industry and to reduce food waste.
