Review on the Current Scenario in Active and Intelligent Packaging Technologies

Abhishek Ranvare*, Hritvik Jadhav

The traditional role of packaging is to provide protection from the external environment and to provide convenience in distribution. The changing global trends need innovation in the sector of food packaging. Active and intelligent packaging systems will be the innovative packaging systems of this era. In this review, we have covered the active packaging systems and intelligent packaging systems with their types. Active packaging and intelligent packaging these two terms differ from each other. The active packaging system's main objective is to extend the shelf life with the help of absorbing and releasing systems. The absorbing systems in active packaging include the O₂ absorbers, CO₂ absorbers, and ethylene absorbers. The releasing systems include antioxidant and CO₂ emitters. The intelligent packaging systems monitor the shelf life of the product and give a visual indication of the quality of the product. The intelligent packaging includes data carriers, indicators, and sensors. The holograms and thermo chromic inks also come under the intelligent packaging’s use of active and intelligent techniques are limited at the commercial level.
