Smart Packaging

In addition to ensuring the safe transport of products, packaging also helps to preserve their quality. In addition to active packaging, intelligent packaging is a special form of packaging.

1) What is the "essence" of smart packaging and its use?

Intelligent packaging can monitor the environmental conditions and quality of food, allowing retailers and consumers to see whether food has been stored properly and is edible after its best-before date.

Since the biggest food loss occurs at the end consumer, when food is thrown away, smart packaging can reduce food waste by tracking product quality (which is not just expiry date).

Food is under constant chemical and physical control during production and transport, but at the point of purchase this chain is broken, a hole that smart packaging could fill.
