Active and intelligent packaging - results road-mapping exercise published

Results published from a road-mapping exercise, held during the recent interpack exhibition in Dusseldorf, Germany, show broad support for the development and implementation of active and intelligent Packaging technologies as a major tool to fight food waste, according to event co-hosts , AIPIA and ITENE.
The findings show that active technologies such as oxygen and ethylene scavenging, antimicrobial and anti-fungal, humidity control and anti-oxidants, for example; and smart solutions such as freshness indicators, time/temperature indicators and all types of traceability products have benefits for the whole supply chain, not just individual elements of it (Press Release ITENE, 1 July 2014).
