Preserving Freshness & Purity with Dairy Packaging Machines

1. Preserving Freshness & Purity with Dairy Packaging Machines! Traditionally, milk and milk-based products have played a significant role in the cultural and nutritional life of our country. Liquid milk forms a major item of food in India. It is the major ingredient in our beverages - tea and coffee - and an essential part of the diet either as milk itself or as curd, buttermilk, ghee and sweets. For the most part, these products are produced in unorganised small-scale sector. Although standardisation in quality and mechanisation in production are taking place, there is a great need for the development of appropriate and economical packaging. Packaging is the vital link in the entire chain of production, storage, transportation, distribution and marketing. Functional packaging of dairy products leads not only to resource raising and their optimal utilisation, but also protects the contents against deteriorative changes and associated hazards. Most of the dairies in Indian cities have introduced packaging and distribution of milk through polyethylene pouches. The plastic pouches are single-trip packages, very light in weight and hence distribution costs are less compared to glass bottles. Losses during pouch filling are less than bottle filling and less floor space is required for the packing and cold storage. Bureau of Indian Standards prescribes requirements and testing of polyethylene pouches for pasteurised liquid milk in 1 litre and 0.5 litre capacities in IS:11805-1986. According to this standard, pouches should be made from virgin polyethylene (LDPE, LLDPE, HDPE or EVA) for meeting food grade standards. Initially, LDPE film was used for milk packaging but today LLDPE is the preferred choice. More recently, octene and butene-based LLDPE are used. These ensure that the dairy product reaches the end consumer as it is supposed to – without contamination and without damaging its nutrients, freshness or taste and odour.
