Track 08: Pharmaceutical Packaging

Packaging can be defined as an efficient means of providing protection, demonstration, communicate information, containment, suitability and compliance for a product during storage, carriage, display and until the product is consumed. Packaging of product must provide safeguard against physical, chemical and biological hazards and as well as with climatic conditions and must be cost-effective.

The package must provide suitable reliability of the product throughout the shelf life. The pharmaceutical packaging is an important component for medicinal products because it promises its stability and integrity. It is sometimes an intrinsic part of the pharmaceutical form itself. Additionally, the pharmaceutical packaging has always been essential means of communication for patients (labelling, pamphlet) but also for professionals (such as pharmacists, other pharmacy staff or nurses) at the time of drug delivery.

Pharmaceutical packaging has to maintain lots of complex considerations. Apart from quite simple issues such as developing good designs and interacting with customers, the pharmaceutical packagers are more worried about the concerns such as fighting with counterfeiting, encouraging patient compliance, ensuring drug integrity and balancing child-resistance and accessibility for the elderly. Issue of environment safety is also key concern for both developed and developing countries packaging industry. Pharmaceutical packaging companies are one of the industry's prominent innovators evident by the recent advancement in technology. The current trends are result of continuous series of challenges faced by industry. Packaging is a science which is constantly growing and is a main realization provider for pharmaceutical industries.

Track 09: Canned/Preserved Food Packaging

The rapid growth in working population in developing economies has increased the demand for instant food products across the globe. People, nowadays, have no time to cook, which has resulted in an increased dependence on canned preserved food, as they are rich in nutrients and do not require cooking. The increasing earnings of customers is also adding significantly to the rising demand for canned preserved food in the world.

Canned food is a good source of nutrients, especially for people having restricted funds or with limited access to fresh foods. Can linings prevent the interaction of a food with a can’s metal. Epoxy resin, made from polymers containing Bisphenol A, has been preferred for can coatings because it protects against metal corrosion and holds up to the heat extremes of sterilization. Canned foods play a significant role in international food market. Canned packaging foods can be saved for months in a very similar state to its original form. Canned meat is an on-going development toward cheap alternatives to chilled and frozen meat. As on one hand canned foods offers a long shelf life and low prices, while on the other hand it suffers from a poor consumer perception of its healthiness and taste quality.

Track 13: Sustainable Packaging

Nowadays sustainability packaging is  a major global trend in the packaging industry as consumers consistently search for healthier food preferences and also in a search of the manufacturers whose innovative packaging and processes positively impact the environment and the quality of their goods. Here comes sustainable packaging which is simply packaging that may be composted, recycled or reused, at the present time we can easily see manufacturers put more focus on packaging technologies and trends that allow for the reduction of waste and provide a safer product while enhancing their brand message.

Sustainable packaging is the expansion and use of packaging which results in better sustainability. This includes the increased use of life cycle inventory (LCI) and life cycle assessment (LCA) to help guide the use of packaging which reduces the impact on environment and ecological footprint. Sustainable packaging is a relatively new addition to the environmental considerations for packaging. It requires more analysis and documentation to look at the package design, choice of materials, processing, and life-cycle. This is not just the vague "green movement" that many businesses and companies have been trying to include over the past years. Companies implementing these eco-friendly actions are reducing their carbon footprint, using more recycled materials and reusing more package components. They often encourage traders, contract packagers, and suppliers to do likewise.

Track 14: Food Packaging-Environmental Impact

The advancement in food processing and packaging play a primary role in keeping the food supply one of the safest in the world. Packaging protects food and is the intermediate between the processing and usage by the consumer. After usage, food packaging must be removed in an environment in the safest manner. Packaging technology must therefore balance food protection with other issues, including energy and material costs, heightened social and environmental consciousness, and strict regulations on pollutants and disposal of municipal solid waste (MSW).

Track 15: Packaging Methods for Processed Foods

Food has the nature to spoil at the moment when it is harvested. Processing, preservation and packaging of foods is undertaken to prevent spoilage by microorganisms, as well as enzymes, temperature, and biochemical changes and impart a keeping quality or shelf-life to foods. Packaging is the integral part of the processing and preservation of foods that can cause physical and chemical changes, including migration of chemicals into foods. However, packaging in the modern world has a considerable impact on the environment.

Track 21: Active & Intelligent Packaging

The Active and Intelligent Packaging both include functions that move apart from the containment and protection of a product. The dissimilarity between the two is that while active packaging acts directly with the packaged product by interacting chemically or biologically with it. The objective of intelligent packaging is to identify and communicate information about the product condition, without taking any direct action.

The goal of Active and Intelligent Packaging is to extend shelf life, monitor freshness, and to improve safety and suitability. Active Packaging aims to monitor the condition of the packaged goods. The Active food packaging interacts with its contents chemically or biologically just to extend shelf-life and maintain food quality for as long as possible. While the Intelligent Packaging aims to inform. It can intellect trait of the product and communicate this info to users or trigger active packaging functions. Its main purpose is to indicate whether the quality of the product has deteriorated or not.
