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.
