In order to understand exactly how food and beverage packaging has evolved into environment friendly packing, it is important to know what the conventional packaging materials were.
Plastic bags, cardboard boxes, metallic cans, and glass were being used before the advent of stand up pouches. It is clear that plastic was non biodegradable, glass and metal were expensive, and cardboard was perishable.
However, with stand up pouches being used for making food pouches, these problems have been minimized.
- Stand up pouches are recyclable
- They are cost effective packaging
- They are made up of multiple barrier layers to offer dual level protection to contents
- These bags are highly durable, being resistant to tears, pricks, and rupturing at the seams.
Liquid packaging, when it involves the use of stand up pouches, releases low carbon footprints and minimum toxins. As a result, businesses play a more aware and responsible role in protecting the earth and its resources. The raw materials required are few and the process is greener with harmless chemicals and treatments.
It is a smart business decision to adopt green dry food packaging to reach out to million of environment conscious consumers who are actively rejecting irresponsible packages that harm the planet.
