Packaging has changed slightly through the years
![Page 3: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Definition of packaging
Packaging is the means of ensuring the safe delivery of a product to the ultimate consumer in sound condition, at the minimum overall cost
![Page 4: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

In today’s business: what is packaging required to do?
• Inert and non toxic ie non-damaging to product• Have good seal integrity eg show evidence of tampering
• Appeal to the consumer• Convenience: Be easy for the consumer to use; open close
• Display product information• Meet require legislation – materials in contact with food;
traceability; labeling; weights and measures

Packaging: Your partner in product protection
and production
![Page 6: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
12
Protection of the product
What can go wrong in distribution?• Mechanical hazards• Physical changes – colour, texture• Climatic hazards• Microbial growth• Light catalysed changes• Moisture loss /gain• Product staling
![Page 7: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
26
Be suitable for easy movement on the factory production line:
• Reduced labour costs• Increasing flexibility• Efficiency increased
Design for Stability on the production line
![Page 8: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
27
Design for Stability on the production line
containers should be designed to be all-around as trouble-free to manufacture, fill, close and ship as possible.
Some designs are inherently weaker or more prone to cause trouble in their filling and distribution cycle than others.
Centre of gravity and the base surface area will determine a container's stability. Stable containers minimise handling problemson both manufacturing and filling lines.
![Page 9: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
29
Design for Stability on the production line
Poor design
Good design

Example: The outer carton needs to be square, otherwise slight length variation is magnified.
If not, the carton erector (s) may not fold and glue the cartons properly, or might even reject folding it.
Automation implications

Packaging: Your partner in product distribution
![Page 14: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
34
Levels of packaging
The 3 levels of packaging – primary, secondary and tertiary. Optimal distribution packaging builds the correct protective and handling qualities into each packaging subunit and ensures that all the qualities are mutually complementary.
![Page 15: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
35
Be robust enough for stacking in warehouses
Distribution compatibility

Water underneath PVC capsule during application
Corks pushing out due to too high temperature being reached
What happens if distribution goes wrooooong?
![Page 17: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
38
What happens if distribution goes wrooooong?
A shifting pallet load could be caused by a number of packaging or distribution factors eg
• Poor shrink quality of 6-packs• Load-shifting due to poor stack
method • Incorrect tension of stretch wrap • Excessive vibration in transit
![Page 18: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
39
What happens if distribution goes wrooooong?
Label scuffing
![Page 19: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
41
What happens if distribution goes wrooooong?
Possible causes: Wet cans: Moisture on cans will promote external corrosion. Wet board. High salt content and / or moisture level in the board
used for cartons or trays.
Stress corrosion cracking at can end

Retail: Packaging adds product confidence
Purchasing a product means you are buying into the quality of the product. The outward appearance:
Tells you about the inside story…what you could get
Tells you about the Company making the product
How much they care about their product How much they care about you as the
consumer of their products
![Page 49: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
94
• The role of packaging in maintaining consumer confidence in the safety of the product is crucial –particularly for the food and pharmaceutical products.
• Evidence of good sealing, tamper evident seals, use by dates, good presentation are all evidence to the consumer that the product is safe to use and that the brand owner ‘cares’.
Retail : Packaging adds product confidence

116
Food Allergen Labeling Requirements
Include the name of the food source in parenthesis following the common or usual name of the major food allergen in the list of ingredients in instances when the name of the food source of the major allergen does not appear elsewhere in the ingredient statement. For Example:
Option #1:
![Page 71: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
117
Food Allergen Labeling Requirements
Ingredients: Enriched flour (wheat flour, malted barley, niacin, reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), sugar, partially hydrogenated soybean oil, and/or cottonseed oil, high fructose corn syrup, whey (milk), eggs, vanilla, natural and artificial flavoring) salt, leavening (sodium acid pyrophosphate, monocalcium phosphate), lecithin (soy), mono-and diglycerides (emulsifier)

118
Option #2:The second option is to place the word "Contains" followed by the name of the food source from which the major food allergen is derived, immediately after or adjacent to the list of ingredients, in type size that is no smaller than the type size used for the list of ingredients.
For example: Contains Wheat, Milk, Eggs, and Soy .

Environmental packaging legislation in the US
The two federal agencies that deal with packaging in the United States are the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Though neither agency may enact statutes that constitute binding law, both have the authority to bring suits on behalf of the federal government.
In addition, each agency is involved in publishing non-binding guidelines concerning packaging that each state may or may not choose to accept.
![Page 76: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
122
Environmental labelling
The United States has very strict Environmental Labelling Rules - and it should be noted that many importers do use deceptive labelling.
There are three existing guidelines on environmental labelling that the states have chosen to follow.
These are the FTC guidelines, the Northeast Recycling Council (NERC) guidelines, and guidelines suggested by The Green Report II.
The Northeast Recycling Council (NERC) has developed model legislation. the primary purpose is assisting these states in developing and stimulating markets for recycled materials in the north-east U.SA.

123
Environmental labelling
The following are standards defined in the guide, and should reflect current solid waste management options:
Claims about recyclability and composting in advertising should reflect the options available in the local area where the product is sold (if not, confusing or misleading information may result).
Biodegradable, degradable and photodegradable claims should not be used in advertising for products which are primarily disposed of by landfill or incineration.
![Page 78: John Byett byettj@cput.ac.za 1](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012007/61d96a8daf48cc259a4485cf/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
124
Environmental labelling
Companies should have scientific evidence to prove that products will decompose before labelling them as compostable.
Unqualified claims of suitability for composting or for recyclability should only be made when the option is available nationally; if not, the limited access to this option should be made apparent.

126
Environmental labelling
It is recommended that exporters to the U.S. follow the guidelines of the Green Report II. This is because:
Its advertising requirements are the strictest; Compliance with the requirements of the Green Report II
will cover an exporter throughout the U.S.; The majority of states who have advertising requirements
are signatories to the Report.

General environmental issues
The EPA recommends paying attention to the following issues with respect to packaging:
Source reduction Recycling Waste-to-energy incineration Landfill.
