Food safety issues in food packaging
Abstract
Companies involved in processing, marketing and distributing food products are fully aware of the growing pressure on assuring food safety and quality. UHT-treated and aseptically packaged products have become popular from the viewpoint of food safety and health. Aseptic processing and packaging allows sensitive liquid foods to stay safe and fresh and gently protects the natural flavour and nutritional content of liquid products, giving consumers more quality and better taste. Since the cartons can be stored un-chilled for months, consumers will benefit from improved food safety due to less spoilage and waste The quality of raw (packaging) material, the UHT sterilization equipment, the aseptic packaging system, their process controls and quality system play important roles to determine food safety, quality and conformance of the finished products. As the world's leading food processing and packaging solutions company, Tetra Pak is committed to making food safe and available, everywhere. And our commitment extends far beyond protecting the contents in a package. It also includes support for our customers' businesses, a responsibility to reduce our environmental impact, and shape a better future for all our stakeholders - from our employees, to our suppliers and the communities in which we operate.
