Protective packaging for refrigerated perishable foods
To transport perishable merchandise, the protective packaging must help to preserve the cold chain and withstand very demanding conditions, which will guarantee that the properties of the products remain intact at all times.
Seafood contributes
35% of the market, ice cream and solutions 23% and 22%, respectively, and the
remaining 20% is divided almost equally between vegetables (including
potatoes) and the rest of the products from the frozen chest.
Why is protective
packaging so important in the food industry?
The main challenge is
achieving protective packaging adapted to the product, resistant to transport
conditions, and ensuring food safety by reducing the risk of contamination.
To properly protect
food, it will be necessary to use resistant and insulating protective packaging
that addresses the problems posed by food transport both statically and
dynamically. If adequate and strong protective packaging is used, the cargo can travel by air, land and sea, arriving at
its destination in the same conditions it was shipped from its origin.
Characteristics
that the protective packaging must have to avoid damage to perishable products.
Impermeability
Protect products from
moisture and external agents to ensure the properties remain intact.
Manageability
The protective
packaging must be designed to be easily handled manually or by mechanical
means.
Resistance
Internal impacts,
accelerations, vibrations produced by motors or stress such as the weight of
stacked goods.
Identification and Control
Good protective
packaging contains all the information that allows you to travel safely and
reach the intended destination.
How to pack and transport perishable merchandise
Making exported meat,
fish, fruit, and vegetables arrive in optimal conditions is not easy. The protective
packaging and transport of these products, whose quality degrades over time and
due to environmental conditions, especially if there are temperature
variations, make choosing the right protective packaging essential for the
products to arrive correctly.
For this reason, when
transporting perishable goods, the protective packaging must help to preserve
the cold chain and withstand very demanding conditions, which will guarantee
that the properties of the products remain intact at all times.
