Food
contact paper and board are being use in the food industry in
a wide range of applications such as manufacturing, processing,
preparing, treating and packaging. There are few applications where
close contact is involved, such as dip tea bags and filter papers,
while direct contact packaging finds application in cartons for
beverages, bakery goods & butter wrapping, fruits, and takeout
food. In addition, it has wide applications in transport and
distribution packaging.
The paper and board
sector has been continuously innovating new, safe and functionally
effective food handling and packaging materials, to protect human
health and the interests of consumers. Production of paper and board
from natural fiber (cellulose) and minerals, and other materials
(that are favorable for food contact) prescribed in accordance with
the standards set by the government-authorized body, is achieved with
the help of additives and chemical processing. This type of packaging
protects the food from external elements such as air, dust, grease,
and moisture. Food contact paper and board is flexible, easy to
handle, hygienic, and easily disposable. By acting as a replacement
for plates and other serving utensils, it also results in cost
reduction for food vendors.
Evolving life style
and increasing healthcare awareness among consumers has led to the
rise in global demand for safe and hygienic food, in turn driving
growth of the market for food contact paper and boards. Owing to its
value added applications, right from protection of food products to
their safe distribution and transportation, the market for food
contact paper and board is expected to witness new investments and
growth opportunities, especially in the developing countries. The
main drivers for the growth of the market are private consumers,
distributors, and private packaging firms, which are focusing more on
delivering an intact product.
However,
sustainability of the market for insulated packaging majorly depends
on the price and supply of raw materials. Besides, presence of big
and small packaging firms has created a highly competitive
environment in the market for food contact paper and board.
