Packaging,Stroage and Common Deffcts in Cream

Packaging is a technique used to contain, protect and identify a product. It facilitates its transportation, distribution and safe delivery of a product to the consumers.Thus, it contributes significantly to marketing and sale of a product. The packaging requirements to preserve natural quality of a product vary with the products. For example, skim milk and cream require materials with different characteristics. Skim milk does not require a material, which is impermeable to light whereas for cream or any other fat rich product impermeability to light is an essential requirement for packaging material. Consequently, a large number of packaging materials like polymers(single layer polymer, multi-layered polymer), metallic foils, metal cans, glass-bottles and coatings have been developed to meet the requirements of different products.In addition, different packaging machines and methods are also available to pack the product in different forms and shapes. In this unit, we will study the packaging requirements for cream and the common defects, which may develop during its storage. This until will also deal with the probable causes of such defects and their preventive measures.
