Active Packaging

Active packaging refers to packaging that interacts with the contents to extend freshness, enhance safety, or improve shelf life. Unlike traditional passive packaging, active packaging can absorb oxygen, release preservatives, or regulate humidity to prevent spoilage or deterioration. It may include features like oxygen scavengers, moisture control agents, or antimicrobial layers. This technology helps keep food items fresher for longer, reduces waste, and can improve overall product quality. Active packaging is widely used in various industries, especially food and pharmaceuticals, to ensure products remain fresh, safe, and effective until they reach consumers.
