Abstract
n recent decades, there is a global advancement
in manufacturing industry due to increased applications of
nanotechnology. Food industry also has been tremendously
changing from passive packaging to innovative packaging,
to cope with global trends, technological advancements,
and consumer preferences. Active research is taking place
in food industry and other scientific fields to develop
innovative packages including smart, intelligent and active
food packaging for more effective and efficient packaging
materials with balanced environmental issues. However, in
food industry the features behind smart packaging are
narrowly defined to be distinguished from intelligent
packaging as in other scientific fields, where smart materials
are under critical investigations. This review presents
some scientific concepts and features pertaining innovative
food packaging. The review opens new research window in
innovative food packaging to cover the existing disparities
for further precise research and development of food
packaging industry.
