Description
Food Packaging Technology: Materials, Testing, Laws & CareersFood packaging is no longer just about wrapping food-it is a critical technology that ensures food safety, shelf-life extension, quality retention, regulatory compliance, and sustainability.This comprehensive Food Packaging Technology course is designed to give learners a strong conceptual foundation and practical industry-oriented knowledge required for modern food and packaging industries.The course begins with the basics of food packaging, explaining core concepts, definitions, functions, and classification of packaging systems. You will understand the role of packaging as a barrier to microorganisms, its importance in food safety, and how traditional packaging differs from modern packaging in terms of hygiene, shelf-life, and export suitability.You will then explore packaging materials in depth, including paper & paperboard, glass, metals, plastics, bioplastics, flexible and edible packaging. Each material is explained through its properties, applications, advantages, limitations, and real-world food uses. Special focus is given to sustainable materials, biodegradable and bio-based plastics, and emerging packaging solutions.A major highlight of this course is food packaging technologies, where you will learn the science and mechanisms behind MAP, vacuum packaging, aseptic packaging, active packaging, smart/intelligent packaging, nano-packaging, IQF, and advanced freezing technologies. You will clearly understand how oxygen, moisture, microbes, and temperature are controlled to extend shelf life and reduce food waste.The course also provides strong coverage of packaging testing and validation, including mechanical tests, barrier and permeability tests, migration testing, seal integrity, thermal shock resistance, and shelf-life testing. These concepts are directly linked to quality assurance, R&D, and regulatory approval.To make learners industry-ready, the course explains food packaging laws and global regulations, covering FSSAI (India), FDA (USA), and EU food contact regulations, along with legal responsibilities, migration limits, labeling, and export compliance.Finally, the course guides learners through career opportunities in food packaging, including roles in industry, QA/QC, R&D, packaging analysis, and government/PSU sectors. Interview questions, mock scenarios, and real-world case studies help learners prepare for jobs, internships, audits, and regulatory careers.
