Development Trend of Food Flexible Packaging in the 21st Century

In the 21st century, more new packaging technologies will emerge. The first is the development of a variety of food packaging materials, such as multi-layer composite film packaging materials, food cling film, edible film packaging materials, microwave heating packaging materials, aseptic packaging materials. A prominent problem in food packaging today is the pollution of its materials, especially plastics, to the environment. Therefore, the development of biodegradable plastic is a top priority. Another development trend in the field of packaging technology is the development of efficient, high-speed, fully automated packaging machinery, such as high-speed filling and packaging machines for powdered foods, aseptic packaging equipment, and high-speed labeling machines.
