How Vacuum Skin Packaging Helps in Controlling the Food Wastage, Enriching the Food’s Shelf Life

FMI predicts vacuum skin packaging will be critical in extending the shelf life of perishable foods

Nowadays, food wastage has turned out to be a major concern among individuals, which is increasing gradually. In order to have a hold on the situation, the sales of time temperature indicator labels have been increasing to extend the shelf life of the food products in the changing environmental conditions.

According to Sealed Air Corporation, each year, consumers throw out an estimated 12.7 billion pounds of meat, poultry, and fish valued at USD 39.7 billion. Thus, the growing need for diminishing the food waste and enriching the shelf life of the products is expected to augment the demand for vacuum skin packaging solutions in the near future.

A report from Future Market Insights suggests that Vacuum skin packaging has become a go to solution, which aids to increase the shelf life of food products, including fresh and processed meats, poultry and seafood, ready-to-eat meals, fresh produce and cheese. It minimizes the need for preservations and also offers clear packaging that emphasizes the product.

To create a Vacuum Skin package, specially formulated top seal film is used to encapsulate the product like a second skin, securing it in a tray or paper board, but free of tension and without affecting the product’s shape.

The study indicates that the vacuum skin packaging segment is quickly beginning to outpace other case-ready market segments, including overwrap and modified atmosphere packaging. Because vacuum skin packaging removes almost all of the residual oxygen from the package, it offers a lot of benefits to retailers and consumers alike.

  • Substantial increase in shelf life leads to reduced product loss
  • Attractive, clear packaging that showcases the product
  • Minimizes need for preservatives
  • Eliminates freezer burn

Seafood and meat packagers find the secondary sealing of vacuum skin packaging visually appealing. Good secondary seals and surface adhesion to meats and seafood form a second skin around the product, helping to minimize migration of liquids in the packaging for a clean, appetizing presentation.

There are many advantages of skin packaging for consumers, manufacturers and retailers:

  • The product is held in place creating an attractive package, which can be displayed vertically, improving how the product is viewed and reducing shelf space required.
  • Product can be shipped for home delivery and arrive secure and intact
  • Shelf life of perishable foods can be significantly extended
  • Extending shelf life reduces food waste and packaging materials.
  • The use of preservatives can be eliminated altogether or greatly reduced, creating healthier options for consumers.

According to Future Market Insights, as consumers become more aware of sustainable options for how their food is delivered to them, and in an increasingly competitive environment, Vacuum Skin Packaging is emerging as a solution to meet these demands.
