Packaging (Paperback)

Good packaging improves the presentation of a foodstuff, increasing its market value as well as convenience in handling. Packaging can perform three functions: it acts as a container, enabling a chosen quantity of a product to be handled as a unit during distribution and storage; it helps to protect against damage and spoilage; and it can communicate information about the contents.;"Packaging" discusses these functions in detail and looks at traditional and mechanized packaging systems for use by small-scale producers. Case studies from around the world examine the introduction of improved packaging technology, and there are useful lists of manufacturers and organizations which can help small businesses. This book is part of the "Food Cycle Technology Source Books Series". Designed for people who have no technical background or previous knowledge of the technologies, the titles in this series offer information on existing ways of improving the technology of food processing and increasing the quality and range of foodstuffs produced.
