The selection of a suitable packaging film helps to protect the product optimally and to extend the minimum shelf life.Unrivaled barrier properties for aluminum foil exclude moisture, light, microorganisms and other gases making it a suitable material for food packaging and pharmaceutical packaging. Aluminum foil containers are also gaining popularity in the food industry. Manufacturers are also developing aluminum foil packaging for pharmaceutical packaging that can be easily coated, laminated, and cold-formed. As per the requirement of the product to be packed in the aluminum foil, companies are developing aluminum foil bags, containers, and other such products. However, easily torn, low intensity, are hampering the demand for aluminum foil. Hence, manufacturers are researching on developing durable aluminum foil packaging for various application.

However, in the case of aluminum foil it is only guaranteed if it does not come into contact with particularly acidic or salty foods. Under the influence of acid and salt, aluminium ions dissolve and pass into the food.

Depending on their thickness,aluminium foil printing are used for a wide range of food packaging.Aluminium foil for food packaging on a Large Scale

Benefits of Aluminium foil when packaging food

Aluminium packaging is light, flexible and easily recyclable. Furthermore, it is hygienic, non-toxic and helps in keeping the aroma of foods. It keeps the food fresh for a long time and provides protection from light, ultraviolet radiation, oils and grease, water vapour, oxygen and microorganisms.

Aluminium foil reacts only to highly concentrated acids and basic substances and is otherwise strongly corrosive resistant.

Aluminium foil is sterile and therefore hygienic.

Aluminium foil is tasteless and odorless.

Aluminium foil is extremely dimensionally stable even in soft state.

Aluminium foil can be recycled several times without loss of quality.

Aluminium foil does not absorb liquids.

The efficient storage of food and beverages in aluminum packaging reduces the need for cooling and makes it spoil slower. In addition, the low weight of the aluminum reduces required energy during transport.
