Market Overview
Airless packaging is a method of packaging which removes air from the package preceding to sealing. This method involves placing items in a plastic package, removing air from inside, and sealing the package. The objective of airless packaging is to remove oxygen from the container to increase the shelf life of food products and to reduce the volume of the contents and package.
Airless packaging reduces atmospheric oxygen, limiting the growth of aerobic bacteria or fungi, and preventing the evaporation of volatile matter. Airless packaging is used to store dry foods over a long period of time, such as cereals, nuts, cured meats, cheese, smoked fish, coffee, and potato chips. Such packaging can also be used to store fresh foods, such as vegetables, meats, and liquids, because it inhibits bacterial growth.
Airless packaging helps to prevent the contact of the product with air thus increases the longevity and preserves the product. Oxygen, sunlight and microbes, can change the characteristics of products, result in strange odors, discoloration and contamination. In addition, it also allows manufacturers to reduce the use of preservatives, which in turn keeps products more organic. Thus, airless packaging is highly preferred for natural products. Some cosmetic products also can only be packed using airless cosmetic bottles, pertaining to their organic composition. Airless packaging avoids wastage as the customer can use the product up to last drop.
