Food packaging has evolved over time, with laminated packaging accounting for more than 90% of food products in Europe. These not only protect against contamination and spoilage, but also serve as a marketing tool. Before the emergence of laminates in the 20th century, packaging was rigid, mainly glass and metal. The need to preserve products during export drove the laminated flexible packaging industry. These advanced packages ensure product integrity from manufacturing to consumer arrival, and are crucial for transportation, storage and sales presentation.
These packaging materials offer superior protection against product contamination and spoilage, ensuring product freshness and quality. In addition, specialty laminates stand out for their versatility, adapting to different product shapes and sizes. Their ability to extend the shelf life of food makes them an ideal choice. In addition, these packages not only serve practical functions, but also serve as a marketing tool by attracting consumers through attractive design and the possibility of providing relevant product information.
